What is it with the inconsistent depression on the IKV 91-105 when aiming above the front of the hull, from what i read online the depression shouldn’t be worse above the driver port, like you can see in the included image the depression i around 10 degrees around the front. I thing this should be fixed and the depression should be more consistent when aiming frontally.

That’s not an Ikv 91-105, that’s the earlier Ikv 91, which doesn’t have any restrictions to gun depression over the front
With the Ikv-91-105, the gun has to elevate so the mantlet clears the driver’s hatch

One side of the hull has a higher angle slope, so it can depress further over the lower angle portion.

in this article it is stated
To accommodate the larger gun while retaining the gun depression of the original ikv 91 a new enlarged turret not unlike that proposed for the UDES 14D was constructed.
so i don’t know what is the real depression.
The picture shows a regular IKV 91 featuring the 90mm cannon.
However, according to the IKV 91-105’s brochure, the depression should infact be -10°, the cannon appears to be the Rheinmetall Rh 105-20, which could be fitted with different muzzle-brakes- and they’re seemingly what makes the vehicle shown in the brochure differ from our ingame-variant:
Wait Ikv 91 isn’t amphibious ingame. Can we bug report?
It has been bug-reported previously, the response was as follows;

Vehicles that need extensive changes by the crew to prepare them aren’t amphibious ingame, 2s1’s, Ikv 91’s, etc

So is there something the developer will do with the wrongly modeled depression on the vehicle or posting something here is pointless in this regard.
Its not wrongly modelled
Well yes, looking at irl footage of the vehicle, the gun-shield doesnt match the ingame one whatsoever and it is what would prevent the ingame-vehicle from depressing further.
The brochures on Ikv 91-105 consistently mention the vehicle to have -10° of depression.
