Yes, but at 6kph top speed and being a WW1 Design, I’m not sure if it can qualify.
Yeah this is exactly what i said when i first came on here if you scroll up you can see all the info i put on the FCM F1, its genuienly such a good choice there was a wooden mock up made of it and 12 or so placed on order plus it would give france a unique good super heavy if balanced right which would be around 4.3-5.0 considering the only “heavy” tanks they have are the ARL 44s and B1s. It would give france a heavy around the BR that commonly have heavy tanks if they add the F1. Yes Char 2 is there but the thing has paper armour so its useless and france deserves the FCM F1.

It’s going to be german giraffe.
Trust.
Could be smth like Lamborghini with 25 mm or if you need WW2 something like CANT Z.511 or maybe Semovente 149/40 with ammo box and crew siting on armor (which would unlikely come in any other way).
Nations like France and Italy are in general less popular, so it’s hard to find something “famous” compared to USA, SU or Germany.

It really depends on the class of the vehicle (aircraft vs. tank, ship is very unlikely) and on whether the assumption of no repeated nations holds (which, as I’ve said before, I believe to be reasonable in the case of DCT). If the assumption holds, then the most likely recipients are Japan, Italy, and France. Unless Sweden gets the Kranvagn (which is unlikely given the turret and gun were never built), I don’t know of any viable options for them. Same for Israel.
- If it’s Japan, then the Ki-64 is by far the most viable option primarily based on its popularity. That, and the fact that the only real alternative, the O-I, has been hard-denied.
- If it’s Italy, then I’m not familiar with too many options that meet the popularity requirement. The Ca.183bis seems like a good choice, so long as it is eligible for addition given the fact that no photographs of the incomplete prototype exist and that information on it is overall limited. I don’t know of any good ground vehicle options (except the P.43, but I’m pretty sure that was never built).
- If it’s France, then the FCM F1 seems like the best choice available, so long as it is viable for implementation (since the prototype was never assembled). I am unaware of any good aircraft options.
I wouldn’t mind the FCM F1 being this year’s DCT vehicle, as it’s pretty neat and would be a unique addition to the game. Although, I really am hoping for an aircraft.
Ultimately, the answer to the question of vehicle class should arrive with Community Update No.13, which is confirmed to release sometime this week. This is, of course, assuming that it does, in fact, reveal the class, like Community Update No.8 did last year.

You got the KV7 and TOG backwards, it was TOG first.
Doubt Gaijin will do a naval DCT any time soon. A lot of people wouldn’t very much like this
This is not to mention that there are very few naval rewards that can even be considered to have met the popularity requirement.
It bears repeating, based on some of the suggestions I’ve seen here. Not just anything “wacky” or “strange” or “unique” will work for DCT. The most fundamental requirement for DCT is that it has been requested for many years, since the early stages of the game. If this cannot be verified to be the case for a suggested vehicle, then it probably won’t fit the bill for DCT.

Too high rank 🤷♀️
I have actually no idea what the requirements for a DCT are. What you say definitely isn’t wrong but I have seen quite a number of people say that this event is solely limited to WW2 era vehicles.

Given how that’s often the most requested and also every dct vehicle has been WW2 it’s a pretty safe guess I’m sure eventually they’ll branch out into the cold war
Pe-2 with rocket jet
Not a takeoff helper, but actual engine that worked for 3 minutes on full thrust and increased its speed by 92km/h

Forgot about that one, or at least I had it in the back of my mind but couldn’t remember what it was called, so thanks for that. Would fit the uniqueness bill, and maybe it’s been requested for long enough, since its suggestion on the old forum was passed.
That is, as I understand it, a byproduct of the fact that it’s almost exclusively WWII-era vehicles that have been requested for long enough to make it into DCT. It is, however, not unreasonable to postulate that the threshold will move as fewer options become available. Though with WWII candidates still available, I do not expect it to shift yet.
Yeah, it’s very unlikely; naval is still the least popular mode in-game.
Aye, and the majority of them would be high-tier stuff like Battleships and Missile Ships, among other things.
Ahem, ahem, Heli PVE. Aka the only Helicopter mode.
