The Luftvärnskanonvagn (Lvkv) 9040C is one of the many variations of the CV90, designed mainly to combat enemy aircraft and attack helicopters. Delivered in 1997 to the army, giving them a vehicle that can keep up with other units during an advance where they can be deployed fast to provide to infantry and other combat units with cover from hostile air units. The Swedish army ordered 30 of the Lvkv 90 variant, only 3 of them were upgraded to the "Cesar" standard for international use.

Introduced in Update 1.97 "Viking Fury", the Lvkv 9040C has very similar performance to other Strf 90 IFVs. It's capable of engaging both air and ground targets effectively. Its 40 mm cannon has a slow rate of fire, and a small magazine with only 24 shots, so shots need to be precise in order to save ammo and guarantee a kill. However, it could be considered quite poor as an SPAA and a light tank, since it lacks the mobility and ATGMs found in other light tanks like the BMP-2M and Bradley IFV. And as an SPAA, it has no access to anti-air missiles, it does have access to HE-VT shells, but those are not available stock, and attacking aircraft with regular HE shells may prove challenging.
