Hungarian Ground Forces

I dont see any difference compared to other T-54/55 except added track parts on armor.

Probably these mudguards make it look unusual.

Maybe this would be useful, there are vehicles used by Hungary after WW2 listed with description:

This is a rare case where adding what is basically a reskin to a TT would be met with positivity because they are not available on the market place. It would not negatively impact their value by making them functionally free.

Having them as event vehicles only was appropriate when there was not a clearly correct TT location for them. Now that there is, they should be reintroduced as TT, given they were a major component of the Hungarian Armoured Forces. (Or intended component, in the case of the Zrinyi I not having enough domestic production of long 75mm to make it a viable option)

For the Zrinyi I, they can even drop the rockets on the TT to keep the event vehicle unique.

Side note: For those looking for good English sources of information about Hungarian WW2 vehicles, Magyar Steel by Csaba Becze is probably the best choice. It can be a little difficult to find though.

There is an increased hope with low tier Hungarian aircraft being added for this march update that low tier Hungarian tanks could come in the near future (1-3 years), but we still must indure the suffering from the snail to know…

… as more battle pass rewards

No, please don’t give them any ideas!

In fact, we need them to re-release researchable versions of the Toldi IIA and Turan II that they trapped behind the battle pass. I mean, this would be a really easy/low effort addition, but for many people it would mean 2 new “unique” tanks.

Oh I agree.
There are quite a few event and premium vehicles that I’d argue need to ported to the TT on the grounds that they are too historically notable to be so inaccessible. The current versions can be get unique skins, or in-some cases, be converted to specific variants with changes that affect performance (likely for the better to improve marketability).
Hungary needs this treatment the most, but it applies to a lot of nations.

I would hope they make a researchable Zrinyi 1 without rockets to be added to the tec tree at some point.

We might be a little out of luck there since that was the sole prototype, later fitted with rockets. Gajin doesn’t like adding the same individual vehicle twice, hence why there aren’t refits of specific ships as separate researchable vessels in the TT afaik (I don’t play naval).

I think the TKX (P) and TKX are the exact same prototype at different points in time or something like that, but no one say anything about it. I want to see how long before they notice on their own and replace one of them with one of the other protypes built.

Well, until they address the T28/T95 situation, I think it’s reasonable to continue asking. Obviously, there are many interesting variations of singular prototype vehicles that are completely transformative and wouldn’t work as a simple modification, so I hope they don’t rule against them completely.
