My last bug report with data comparisons of other Henschel/Daimler-Benz vehicles from the same period which also use OM-Series engines. Explicitly stated figures line up with this engine that was manufactured right around the same period, with the same power range; Even as far to show how power/torque is modeled the SAME exact way on the Radkampfwagen 90.
It should be modeled correctly. If this doesn’t go through I’m officially done.
Couldnt you also say that theres is no proof of any engine at all? Who is there to proof that it wasnt a turbocharget 1000hp prototype put in for some tests?
Isnt that the same issue for almost everythink ingame? Who is there to proof anything? No one has that vehicle in their garage to show and even if, no one could validate that someone hasnt been tinkering with it.
The restored original prototype is in NL, restorer himself the engine is an OM-442LA back in 2003 but gaijin can’t accept that as a source.
Edit: If you really want the history, the British Class 1 which also has a singular prototype parker somewhere, (British TH-400, small chassis differences and smaller powerpack) used a weaker Daimler-Benz engine. But the Thyssen-Henschel one in Germany? By 1987, and the singular prototype was built after that year Daimler-Benz had released the OM-442LA and begun producing it specifically for 6x6 and 8x8 trucks and buses that needed up to 30T weights pulled.
It works on paved roads, downhill or at least flat roads.
Aside from that you won’t beat the 50-60 km/h bracket. You’re hardly faster than tanks of this BR brackets. Which makes this vehicle a bit pointless. I just spaded it and:
Its a collectors vehicles, rather than something you should really use ingame.
