The SkyWizard II Modular Multi Vehicular Air Defense System, M1075 Palletized Load System(HEMTT) Variant, is a highly mobile anti-aircraft missile platform developed from the original fixed-configuration SkyWizard system. As the third ☆GASco multi-vehicular system introduced for export, it represents the most advanced evolution of the SkyWizard family, integrating upgraded technologies while expanding overall modularity and operational flexibility. The system is composed of two primary vehicles: a dedicated target acquisition and designation unit, and a transporter erector launcher (TEL) equipped with an integrated radar system. An optional communications vehicle can be deployed to enhance network coordination, while a separate generator is no longer required, as each vehicle is capable of self-sustained power generation. At its core, the SkyWizard II features the advanced GR-E MK.IX (RD/APG-7) AESA Track-While-Scan radar with a detection range of up to 44.4 km, paired with missile options capable of reaching 53.3 km. For survivability and electronic warfare superiority, it is equipped with the GA/ARI-9075 Missile Approach Warning System (MAWS), NN/ALQ-1 Radar Warning Receiver (RWR), and the FOX jamming system for radio signal disruption, delivering a modern, modular, and export-ready air defense solution built for dynamic operational environments.
Compared to the original SkyWizard, this variant is built on the M1075 PLS HEMTT truck platform rather than the Magic A3 MBT chassis, prioritizing operational flexibility, ease of deployment, and simplified maintenance. The palletized load system allows the radar and launcher modules to be mounted as self-contained mission units, similar in concept to containerized transport systems, instead of being permanently fixed to a combat chassis. This approach enables faster configuration changes, streamlined logistics, and improved adaptability across different operational environments. Unlike the first SkyWizard version, the SkyWizard II also integrates the FOX jamming system, enhancing its electronic warfare capability and survivability. While it does not carry the Joint Universal Operations (JUNOS) missile designed for intercepting ballistic and advanced high-speed threats, it remains highly effective against aircraft and cruise missiles through the Skylight-Enhanced Maneuverability missile and Skylight-Extended Range missile system. For engagements involving fast ballistic missiles, the previous SkyWizard configuration equipped with JUNOS remains the recommended platform, whereas the SkyWizard II is optimized for modular, mobile, and versatile air defense operations.
The SkyWizard II TELAR vehicles are offered in two specialized variants to match mission requirements. The first configuration deploys the Skylight-Extended Range missile, optimized for long-range engagements and featuring enhanced resistance to countermeasures such as chaff. The second TELAR variant carries eight Skylight-Enhanced Maneuverability missiles, designed to intercept highly maneuverable medium-range targets with improved agility and tracking performance. The system operates with a single Target Designation and Acquisition System (TADS) variant, ensuring unified command and fire control across all deployed units. In addition, the SkyWizard TADS maintains compatibility with the SLAMRAAM/CLAWS TEL platform, enabling secure missile datalink guidance and expanded networked air defense integration.
The SkyWizard II does not directly incorporate the SW-C-J2/J5 missile systems within its standard configuration. Although it is a new evolution of the SkyWizard family, operators can seamlessly integrate earlier tank-based TELAR variants equipped with the SW-C-J2/J5 and JUNOS missiles into the updated SkyWizard TADS architecture. By pairing the M1075 HEMTT-based Target Designation and Acquisition System with legacy Magic A3 MBT-mounted TELAR units, users retain full interoperability while expanding deployment flexibility. This hybrid compatibility ensures that both new modular truck-based elements and established heavy-platform missile assets can operate cohesively within a unified air defense network.

All of these launchers can be spammed to have many launchers at once to multiply the number of missiles you can fire. However, it'll always require 1 TADS vehicle to operate, but that's nothing anyway because the TELARs have their own radars albeit less effective single track single array electronically scanned HMD guided radars.

Medium Range SAM for general purposes, used against maneuverable targets and slow cruise missiles(not recommended for ballistic missiles)

Long range SAM for aircraft at stand off ranges and semi chaff(not recommended for any munition sized weapons or missiles, unless its mounted on an aircraft and you fire from behind the cruise/ballistic missile chasing them, it cannot head on missiles or munition sized weapons, only chase them which is more effective in that angle)
Note: All missiles are in a VLS position so most likely their minimum ranges will be longer than what's said in the stat card. All missiles have ARH+Inertial Guidance+Datalink.

(Of course, as part of the credits, quick cheers to God for helping make this creation possible)
Known problems: Ghost targets making the missiles miss the target due to their multi track ID time diffusion guidance, Solved by switching to single track mode which disables multi track of all launched missiles and only track the selected target.
Some players experiences the system being unable to fire the missiles. Currently, there is no known clear reason why that happens as the creator of the system himself does not experience the same issue of missiles misfiring or being unable to launch. (Also don't use these 2 missiles for ballistic missiles, there is another missile that is made to intercept ballistic missiles the JUNOS)
Sometimes, the palletized load isn't getting completely pulled into the truck, it can be fixed by using the container arm function to remove and pull it again until it fits.
