Specifications should be corrected like in the British OOB: crew 2(now 4), size 2(3), weight 10(0).
Radio should be 90 or 92 - it was most common.
Was its Bren, normally shooting through a slot in armour, really an AAMG? The vehicle doesn't seem to have any AA mounting, so it would have to be fired "from hand" (same for the British OOB).

Some Dingos did have an AA mount, called the Lakeman mount.
It was not popular, probably of limited effectiveness, and no doubt removed by many crew to make room in that tight cab.
So I agree that the Dingo is not the best choice for an AA mount. There's plenty of other allied vehicles that I'd give AA mounts before the Dingo.
Just an FYI
