Not gonna happen, it’s also likely to lose its stabilizer when they accept the newest bug report for it

Specifically when looking at documents for the Veak there is no mention of a stabilizer at all, it’s also likely it never had one as the driver is in the turret and would only be able to drive the vehicle realistically while the turret is in the forward position meaning all shooting would be stationary making a stabilizer useless irl.
Also I didn’t make it, I just read the docs on the report, honestly I’m all for nerfing the veak until it’s the worst SPAA possible just for the meme since nobody is using it anyways. Maybe gaijin will finally add some good spaa

Oh hell nah, rip VEAK 😭. The removal of its proxy shell ruined playing that BR range of Sweden for me. Every time I want to play that BR and go to pick AA, I just become sad and play a different tree instead…
Sadly a historical change, no evidence of the VEAK ever having fired a proxy round. The absolute best evidence i could personally find was that the 40mm proxy rounds started trials a few months before the VEAK was decommissioned and they MAY have been at the same field.
This would be a cool addition and possible replacement for the VEAK: CV90 Chameleon
But would probably be a higher BR.
Well yeah I know about the proxy not being used. I have the docs for the Veak from the swedish armor discord.
Besides Tridon is a more likely option as it carried HE-VT rounds

Aww man, that sucks.
Frankly, there’s not many SPAAG’s at that BR-area in the 35-40mm range with HE-VT in WT atm, no? None of the 35mm KDA vehicles or similar have any proximity fused ammo.
M247, but that’s already 9.0.
So I don’t think it’s in any way unfair that the VEAK 40 doesn’t have HE-VT, especially also considering it’s BR of 7.7…
Veak also just happens to have the slowest fire rate and worst velocity for a 7.7 SPAA and doesn’t have a lineup meaning it plays at 8.0 more often.
Seriously 40 rounds then reload
Gaijin can add 2 different vehicles with HE-VT to fill that gap as neither had radar

Yeah it went down in BR when the proxy was removed, it used to be 8.7 (i think it was? not sure on exact BR)
Yeah 8.7

I would compare the Pvkv 2 to the flakbus, despite not getting overpressure APHE a 110g of filler is plenty and the rest is just the inherent advantages of being built on a light tank chassis compared to a halftrack. The Pvkv 2 is better in almost every way, it doesn’t get to overpressure with the APHE and its layout is weaker to AP rounds than the flakbus.
Not sure if it’s 0.3 of a BR better, but apparently Gaijin thinks so. biggest loss is having less other vehicles to play with it which sucks
