Ingame decals using historically

Wendes Artillery Regiment, also known as A 3 operated from 1794-2000.

wendes

When it comes to equipment, they really only operated regular towed howitzers such as Haubits 77. There is also information that they used the fire command variant of vehicles like the Pbv 302 and CV 90 (Strf 90). Like with most other insignias for Sweden, it was usually only represented on the vehicles in the form of a plaque attached. Example from a Tgb 40 truck below.

Spoiler

Semihistorically you could put it on something like the Bkan 1, but due to budget cuts only the northern artillery regiment A 8 was equipped with it in real life.

Hi Thiky,

We have actually two years ahead before the old form will be reduced to dust. So if we are motivated, we can preserve all the participations.

Good catch about the « Cancer » picture ! The Ingame version :

This decal was available during the period between the 1st to the 28 February 2018. The condition to get it was with the old Warbonds system.

The oldest example is a small squadron badge on tails of Hawker Hurricans

Spoiler

The unit used Hawker Hunters later. Small squadron badge was on the nose. The black was the color of Black Arrows’ aerobatic display team. I don’t found example to natural RAF colors.

Spoiler

The unit used English Electric Lightning F3 too. The insignia on the tail in more size.

The original aircraft that bore the nickname “Panchito: the Fighting Cock” was a B-25 “Mitchell” of the 396th Bombardment Squadron belonging to the 41st Bombardment Group of the 7th Air Force that was stationed and operational in the Pacific. Central.

I serve during various attacks on Japanese strongholds in southern Japan, as well as aid in eastern China. Another bombardment of Japan had been scheduled for the same day it surrendered. However, the image of the character is not present in the game, either due to copyright or to avoid problems.

Artilleriregementet A 9 (2001-2021)

se_a9_artillery_regiment

This regiment was estabilished in 2000 by putting together all the other artillery regiments in the country. They used the Volvo A30-based models of Artillerisystem 08 “Archer” which as of yet isn’t in the game (pictured below). The vehicles were usually only decorated with taped on callsigns such as EA, Erik Adam or FA, Filip Adam in the front where the wide load sign currently sits, and in the rear.
