That’s not a historical Panther II though. The US put the Panther G turret on so they could test it.
While the Panther II turret was never built we have the plans and the specifications. Just use that. The hull was complete, the gun exists, so it easily fills the new partial prototype category they have for suggestions.
Historical is not of concern here, since they put Maus turret on the E100 chassis. I just suggested this to fill in the tech tree gap between the br6 panthers and the br8 leopard.
Gaijin doesnt need a full vehicle to implement a vehicle, they just need a part (hull or turret) of the prototype to be built and confirmed.
This can fill the gap and be put at 6.3, while the actual Panther II can be placed at 6.7, which is a good for line ups.
Yeah my point is that it exist fully built, though not operational (a few tanks in wt weren’t operational irl) it can be implemented into good effect by filling up the tt gap.
The Panther II that we currently have should stay and return to all players (maybe like the Maus), because for Gaijin it should be the cheapest and quickest option I believe.
The Actual Panther II could be introduced as a new vehicle to remedy the situation and allow for individual player choice.
Maybe the same could be done for other vehicles like the E100 and Ostwind II for example.
