interesting. Didnt know about the modifications done to the gun. Considering that there is atleast some modification done to the vehicle and a different playstyle (although slightly) thanks to the different shells, i will likely add it in the future, as its not a directly copy-paste vehicle (whom i like to avoid). Thanks for finding it ;)
Hello,
Once again I have gathered more vehicles that can be added to the suggestion.
Pandur II 8x8 EVO (newer prototype)
Its the new visualization of the TDV bid for the replacement of Pandur II platform.
Developed by Tatra defence vehicle and GDELS , it uses new UT30MK2 unmanned turret with integrated APS radars and LWS.
But recently Czech MOD is also considering other wheeled IFVs mainly Patria AMV xp (other are Boxer and Stryker)

Here I put some photos of Slovakian tanks: the T-72-T21 and the T-72M1-A.
T-72-T21: The T-72-T21 is a project to modernize and modify the Slovak T-72. However, no prototypes were ever built and the T-72-T21 is still a project.
T-72M1-A: T-72 with thicker armor. It is also equipped with smoke grenades on the front of the turret.
I think a Ukrainian/Czechoslovakia/Poland as a full new Tech Tree would be sick!
Slovak Wolf armored vehicle with Mangart 25 RCWS during a recent testing event
OK, this one is actually preety neat (i only seen the vehicle with a mockup turret, so its nice to know they actually put it on there and it didnt stay on paper only ;) )
An update to my ground tree
Hi there. In 8 days, it will be exactly one year since i made the last update to my ground tree proposal, so i thought it would be a perfect time to update it yet again. I added 12 new vehicles, deleted 2 that dont really belong in there, moved some and changed BR of few other. The new vehicles mainly include rank VIII wheeled IFVs and modern AA systems, ranging from short-medium range (SPYDER SR, KUB CZ) to those intended mainly for C-UAS and low-flying aircraft on lower ranks. There is also a brand new mortar variant of the Pandur II with direct fire capability, and some interesting WW2/early post-war tanks too.

I am quite curious about Tiger with ล koda A 18 cannon, what is the story behind it?
goddam, that is an actual boat. Would be funny if it ends up in a naval tree
