The AMX-13 DCA was created during the eve of the 1960 when aircraft took leisurely flights so that the pilots could enjoy their time (and also from jet engines being rather weak). By 1985, the DCA is an outdated vehicle, poorly suited for its original intent but able to turn a Soviet company into pate.
In Team Yankee
At 4 points for a platoon/peloton of three vehicles, its the budget option when Rolands cost too much. Like other AA guns, the DCA is a very respectable vehicle at fighting infantry. Unlike the Sergeant York and Flakpanzer Gepard, it totes a pathetic 5+ and a full platoon has a 0.88 chance to kill just ONE NATO helicopter. Its also rather piddly against IFVs and APCs: AT 7 means that this unit will have a tough time killing anything above 0 or 1 armour.
A budget option: more versatile than blowpipes but very pathetic at killing planes.
