K200 Surveillance

The K200 Surveillance is the South Korean jamming vehicle featured in Mercenaries: Playground of Destruction.

Overview
The K200 Surveillance is almost completely identical to the K200 Vulcan APC, but replaces the 25mm cannon with a jamming device. The armor, troop payload and speed are all the same as the APC, with the removal of the cannon being the only main difference. KIFVs jammers are extremely rare as opposed to the armed one. The main role of the K200 is to simply jam the player's SNS radar, therefore stopping the mercenary from being able to call in support.

Trading one in to the Russian Mafia at full health will net you $20,000.

Northern Province

 * A K200 jammer can be found being utilized by North Korean forces in a heavily defended valley east of Changsong Train Station and southwest of the Chemical Complex.
 * One can be found during the South Korean contract 'Repo Man' at the Mafia Outpost in the Northern Province.
 * A K200 Surveillance is used by the South Koreans at the NK Village during the contract 'In the Neighborhood'.
 * Two can be found at Sinuiju Downtown during the contract 'Exit Strategy'.
 * There is a KIFV jammer at the Chongju Airfield during the contract 'Chokepoint'.

Tactics
The KIFV is not a recommended vehicle for battle, as it has no weaponry. When one is sighted, it is better to destroy it in order to restore the support options. The only good things about this vehicle are the sturdy armor, that protects it from small-arms fire, and the NBC (Nuclear Biological Chemical) shielding, that defends the crew from the radiation of radioactive areas.

Real life
Like the armed APC, the K200 Surveillance is based on the K200 Vulcan KIFV.

Trivia

 * There is a glitch if the player sells this vehicle to the Russian Mafia: the entire game map will be jammed until the game is reloaded.
 * In an NK Base located near the train station in the Northern Province, the NK have apparently captured a K200 Surveillance and are using it for radar-jamming in the vicinity.
