The QN-506, just like the BMP-T is an urban support vehicle with a limited ammunition count yet unlike the BMP-T it is classified as a light tank. This is very problematic due to the low ammo count of the vehicle (as well as its primary weapon being very unreliable).
In addition, it uses a regular UAV instead of its Quadcopter (which already is in the files) which just further takes away from it being a unique vehicle.
Quadcopter
And finally, it is missing its S570 loitering munitions. They have a HE-Frag warhead with 60mm of penetration and25 minutes of max flight time with an unconfirmed top speed or max range. These could easily function as 4 additional much slower fire and forget missiles.
S570
Which changes do you think are appropriate for this vehicle?
- Reclassification to TD
- Quadcopter Drone
- S570

Do you want it to be a light tank or not, you can only have one in warthunder
For now yes, but there are always exceptions to rules in the game. For example, the ASU-57 and ASU-85 both get scouting despite being classified as Tank Destroyers so there is nothing stopping the developers from doing the same with the quadcopter for the QN-506
honestly all i really want right now is an ammo count increase and to fix the fpe thing where you have to use both fpe for one fire every single time.
I dont understand how this thing only gets 100 rounds of apfsds at whatever br its at right now and the fact that you can only get hit once before youre out of fpe for the whole game is annoying

I personally would rather it didnt get both, less exceptions to rules is what warthunder needs not more
That is completely understandable

Now if the qn506 gets it loitering munitions (i think thats a thing it had?) In the new infantry mode, that would be pretty good (but hopefully only in infantry mode not normal ground battles)
Yep, the S570 loitering munition. It only gets a 60mm penetration HE warhead but still it would be quite a fun gimmick
And the ammoracks are still completely broken, with a single hit detonating all of your ammo in every weapon system.

Yeah a few vehicles are affected by that unfortunately, but its less of a bug and more of a just be happy you survived at all in my opinion

Too many times i’ve had to play pure UAV pilot for the rest of the match, because i lost all capability to fight back after a single hit.
Really don’t feel like being happy about that.

Go to a cap point (unless its conquest in which case uhhhh eat dirt ig (i hate conquest terrible game mode))
I just want an ammo box, so I can spam more missiles at helicopters without having to run off to a cap (aka reclassify as ATGM TD)
from what i remember from the mobile infantry event, recon quadrocopters were busted, as you could land them inside buildings and just scout that way. good luck finding out such quadrocopter, let alone taking it out.
just no.
Simple solution. Since the tank can be classified as TD, it can’t scout!
so you want it to have recon drone, but without scouting.
Actually, reading more about the S570… It wouldn’t even be that powerful if it was modeled as a proper NLOS weapon
The entire missile + launcher combo is 7kg and is propeller powered so the 60mm penetration value seems far too powerful for its weight… And considering its speed… it may actually be balanced (if not useless) as an NLOS weapon
