Better still - have the base cost go up to ZSU-57 levels and stop pretending SPAAGs are mainly meant to kill planes already. People want to shoot tanks because its funny in the same way using overkill derp HE is. Current gameplay basically requires AAs be good at tankbusting to reach positions on the map relevant to intercepting CAS from, anyway.
Upping the base SP costs should however, come with the following two old nerfs being lifted:
Undoing the forced mixed belts for the handful of AA guns still having them (20mm German WW2 cannons, MK103 HVAP, Falcon APDS belt)
Removing the forced 12-round limit on the Otomatic and 40-round limits on 35mm Oerlikons for APFSDS and APDS, respectively.
Embrace the Ersatz TD mode instead of punishing it in any capacity. I will refuse to spawn an SPAAG if I can’t bring as much of the antitank ammo as I damn well please.
I have to admit that I’m confused by the definition of “unique” in this case.
Field mounts are no concern to us in WT because we only deal with vehicles.
Ships are a different matter but still we’re talking about a situation where no other vehicle that could possibly be featured in GRB would ever have access to those guns.
God I wish the rest of WT would just start following naval standards already.
Even tho it wouldnt (currently) find use to the game, its about the vehicle itself, as partial vehicles can be suggested and implemented if parts for it like hull or turret and such were build. However the guns arent counted towards the vehicle because they werent ONLY for the vehicle. I didnt do the rules, i was just told that by the suggestion mods.

Honestly i kinda like the Flakpanzer 341 but it’s OP it should go to 6.7 and have it’s turret armor be made out of actuall wood or have it nerfed some other way
Alot SPAAs have this kind of pen or more, even at much lower BRs. Should I remind you on every single one of these? ZSU-37 at RB BR of 3.3 (!), HVAP 87mm pen and many, many more from alot different nations.
Its just that so far German SPAAs were capped at around 50mm penetration up to 7.0 Kugelblitz, since their higher pen ammo was denied so far. The HVAP for MK103 (Kugel) was even nerfed down to 70mm pen or something.
So players got used to anemic Ger SPAA vehicles, which could barely defeat any ground vehicle with 50mm pen at 10 m. While they’re sporting high pen SPAA themselfs from ZSU-37 at 3.3 up to Leopard 1 SPAAs with almost 100mm pen at 6.0 or something.
Its just fair to give Ger SPAAs their higher pen shells as well. All of them should get them tbh.
Its just fairplay. Players need to adapt as Ger players had to. It never had been fun to play Panzer IV vs. ZSU-37. So…why should it be different for others?
