- This command can be used on the whole hierarchical class tree (i.e. when checking a HMMWV, one could test for "HMMWV50", "Car", "LandVehicle", etc., all of which would return true.)

- It appears isKindOf is limited to the CfgVehicles branch of the class hierachy.
So CfgWeapons, CfgMagazines, etc will return false for checks like: ("M9" isKindOf "Pistol") returns false
