Personal, but I wish it be in German tree.

I kinda want it in the US tree just because of the debacle on the forums it will create.
But if i were to disregard that, removing a Panther 2 to get the real Panther 2 is the real way to go
I want it to be in Sweden tree.
I mean if we want to cause discussion on thr forums and not at all care about what has been done before.
Let it go to Korean Sub-tree of Japan
Yeah nah, we dont really want controversial stuff too much. It will fit fine in german tech tree, eitherway Gj will eventually need to find a substitute mdeium between the Panthers and the Leopard.
Looks like the Chieftain finally made a video on the Panther II just recently.
Really interesting video to check out.

Further supports the addition of this vehicle in-game!!
Would like to point out that, after watching the video, he specifies that the transmission is the same as the normal Panther.
That means same poor reverse speed.

Seems like the only difference is the added armour and the Maybach HL-230 700 hp engine. The weight was also allegedly increased to 47 tons. So basically an up-hull-armoured panther tank.

Boring, give bacc cool and unique WT Panther II.
That would look sweet along side the M26 Pershing in my 6.7 lineup. Anyone that disagrees is a video game racist.
Germany had the Panther II first, unique and beautiful. It should get its lost children home before the imperialist yanks get to occupy more propertey.

It maybe boring, but there needs a filler between Panthers and Leopard.
Sadly it was never in real life, thus rendering it a paper tank. Also if you want tanks to play, why not have both? Best of both worlds. I also want it to be in German tree.

When germany occupied sweden they used sweden ore to produce steel for army. So in the name of justice, that ore should return to Sweden at least in game, this is why it should be in sweden tree.
Why not have two different vehicles? First, delete and burn whatever incorrect turret that gaijin has implemented in the game. Second, replace it with these two different possibilities:
1.) Panther II with the H-SKA 86176 / H-SK 88517 turret mounting a 75 mm:
2.) Panther II with the Hln 130 turret mounting an 88 mm:
I don’t know if you are serious, a racist, a self-loather, or trying to make a bad joke, but Sweden is Germanic. You can’t occupy yourself

No. This would just put another fake vehicle into the game, which is something that Gaijin is specifically trying to avoid.
Following this logic, than the Panther II Schmallturm, Tiger II 105, and Flakpanzer 341 can be added back as well, because the E-100 was, as you said, not 100% completed, and the Maus was never officially completed, only completed by the Soviets mating the V1 turret with the V2 hull (Or vice versa)

These vehicles should be made available, at least temporarily in an possibly yearly event for all players. But that’s simply because they are already in the game.
I have no problem if unfinished vehicles like the Flakpanzer 341 or even paper vehicles are added to the game, as long as they are necessary. Vehicles like the Panther II Schmalturm and Tiger II 10.5, however, are simply not even unfinished or paper.
They should be made available for the sole reason that Gaijin already has them in the game and will not completely remove them from the game. However, they are also the kind of vehicle that shouldn’t have been in the game in the first place, and simply are because of mistakes related to their history (originally it was thought that the Panther II mounted a Schmalturm with the long 88).

During the time they were in the game, they were still trying to flesh out the German Ground tree.
Plus, the Tiger II 105 WAS on paper, and so was the Panther II Schmalturm and Flakpanzer 341, but those documents were destroyed or lost after WWII ended.
