Battle bus = lvtznsbxhshcsjxkdnfidfmsjfbrkrndkvfisd m/40?
Yes
Thats if they ever add it lmao, gaijin really hates finland unfortunately
Reminder to sensor swastikas as they are an Offensive / Disturbing image.
It does not matter if they arent from Nazi-Germany or any axis country the symbol itself is forbidden on this forum.
I have cleaned all i have seen. But if you have any images linked with the symbol used. Kindly change the image and blur out/cover the symbol

Gonna be real, its a bit silly no? I get we should sensor them but then if we do it brings in to question the authenticity of said photos due to altercations. Additionally it also covers large parts of history discussed during conversations. Additionally the post has been fine for months, yes i know its Gaijin TOS but it does feel a bit scummy
As ive had my fair share when bug reporting Finnish camos, having alterations can make a post null and void but showing the Hikaristi also makes me get banned for 30 days.
We really need someone higher up to give a better answer, cause it feels like we just lost a lot of important images because of a mod imo

I understand the frustration, and yes, it’s a complicated issue. For majority of the world, the swastika is strongly associated with a harmful ideology and agenda, which is why it’s classified as offensive imagery under the forum rules, regardless of historical context.

Wasn’t the swastika originally a positive symbol for peace and tranquillity but hitler fliped the symbol horizontally and demonized it
Yes, the Hikaristi was still in service with the Finnish air force until 2020

Only Finnish Air force HQ dropped it in 2020, unit flags still have hakaristi with plans to remove them in near future:

Thanks for the clarification, i did actually get to see them in 2018 doing a parade with it, got to see a MLU up close too
Nice work! +1 for Swe/Fin
Quick question, based on that, would using decals in-game to make the swastika or similiarly offensive things be open for reports or does this only apply to the forums?
That should be reported in-game and then you should contact a game master with a screen shot and replay
it’s a 3 step report for 1 thing?
Couldn’t they just have a system that saves the vehicles customisation at the time or something?
I think you should reach out to a game master for those questions they arent my area
