When I returned from vacation I noticed that the CV90 Mk IV stats card looks different than the vehicle.
From what I can see, it has new tracks and the paint color changed a bit. What other changes did the vehicle have?
No nothing since it came out. It weighs 37t while being made out of paper, so far not a single bug report has been fixed.
Pretty sure the track is still bugged on the CV9035’S and the MK.IV.
Pretty sure all the new armor holes are also still there cause playing an open top vehicle at 10.7 is very fun. Given a few more updates and the MK.IV will be the most tanky vehicle in warthunder since it wont have any armor to spall on
The vehicle pretty much screams last minute addition so any and chance that they adress stuff is very unlikely. As for the track changes, its probably part of it being rushed since it was a niche gimmick vehicle for one nation. I could bug report it but gaijin has enough bug reports to procrastinate fixing on the CV90’s to begin with.
to be honest, it meets all the requirements for that title
Should the CV 90 die when getting shot in the spikes or is that just because of the armour holes?
Idk it shouldn’t cause a crew knock out considering how far away the launcher is. But knowing gaijin they figured it doesnt have enough armor to stop snow from killing the crew.

Yeah, I’ve received crew knockout from apfsds hitting the launcher mechanism, (more precisely the roof plate) not even the munitions.
Only happened once but still, there is some strange bloody thing that’l can happen with this.
Figures

Yeah, its bullshit. Even if they were to blow up, they should not kill you as the munitions are outside on a fully enclosed vehicle.
(I know it’s a cliché but) It’s still a shame the same line of thinking does not apply to USSR vehicles (IT-1 / BMP-1), none of the outboard munitions on these vehicles kill you when shot (IT-1) just goes black and needs a repair. Not even a reload.

Crazy how its taken nealy 3 weeks to fix the armor holes that make this thing even more difficult to kill. Guess if it was premium they’d already have it fixed.
Guess in maybe a few months or a year we might finally see this thing with its correct armor values. Maybe
Has anyone suggested adding the CV9035 Mk.IIIC to the game? In its full configuration, it should clearly be better than the CV90 Mk IV that was already introduced. If anyone supporting this idea has the time, please create a separate thread for it, as my english is bad
It should have its own thread already iirc. Regardless i don’t think it will matter considering the MK.IV also can mount the D model turret which would make the 9035 D model almost redundant.
The question is shouldn’t a potential swedish Mk.IIIC get the Akeron Missiles which a Mk.IV probably wouldn’t get since so far nobody ordered them with it?

We’ll have to see
35mm better then 30 anyway. And its first free CV with this gun(NL doesn’t count, its not Swedish tree)
We don’t know if gaijin will add the 9035 with the D model turret to the TT. Rn its more likely the later MK.IV and or CV90’s in general could be added as event/premium. So for now we are stuck with the MK.IV with the 30mm
Doesn’t matter if nobody ordered them. If it exists it can go to sweden. The MK.IV on sweden wasnt purchased by anyone. Czech has a different model with hardkill aps and lws. Thats not the version in game. Besides the D model turret can be mounted on the MK.IV so it should be added and imo considering the poor handling of the MK.IV by gaijin we really need the D model turret since the current MK.IV should be 10.3
