it gets cool rangefinder so you can use it at range
It’s a mechanical one I think
yea like Panther F
The T29E3 was exactly what I was thinking of. That and the T43 (M103’s prototype) with the experimental shells that it didn’t quite enter service with. (I do not have the time to do enough research to gather all the materials to make a suggestion for that though.)
I’m torn in between yes and no. I would vote no if it was proposed to come as a tech tree vehicle or a GE vehicle. The US has one of the strongest 6.7 line ups in my opinion. I would say yes if it came as an optional skin/camouflage for the existing tiger 2 or if it was a event vehicle or a limited purchasable vehicle like the T 34 prototype and German Sherman.
A +1 from me on this one. It has at least an interesting enough history, and it would be a neat premium.
Though that said, I do think Tiger II (280243) 332 would be an even more interesting premium. Now that one has an utterly awesome story to it, a single Sherman captured it after firing a star shell at the II from the front. It freaked out the German crew, who panicked and fled when they saw the Sherman rolling up. The Sherman’s commander then decided to split his crew and reuse the Tiger II to sneak up on German defensive lines and hopefully knock out a Tiger or two. Regretably for him, he was unable to find any additional German armor, and eventually, the tank ran out of fuel and had to be abandoned. The tank was recovered a few weeks later and still survives in the US Army Armor and Cavalry Collection. One cool feature is that it has had its side armor removed for Armor training, so you can see inside.

That’s kinda the idea of capturing a vehicle…
In my opinion, I think that would be a much better example of a vehicle to be added. I’m not saying that the initial suggestion is bad, just the story behind it is really darn cool for the tiger 2 that you mentioned. That being said, I could only see it being added as a limited time event vehicle that can only return in the gambling crates or a limited purchase. If it was in the format of event vehicle, maybe a loading screen, maybe it could show the picture that you showed with the tiger 2 slightly disassembled to show the interior! Or the loading screen can show the Sherman approaching the tiger 2 with the crew running out.

And without modification they have no place in wt imo
That’s your opinion not an actual rule lol any vehicle can be suggested as long as it has a gun, theoretically you can suggest a Jeep with a .1911 as it’s main armament, actually I might do that one…
Your entitled to your own opinion though
Ofc it can be suggested I just don’t believe anything of the unmodified captured vehicles should come they have no place and being nothing to major trees like the USA and ussr there’s no need for a king tiger when there’s plenty of other unique heavy tanks available

Just remember that Germany has an unmodified captured Sherman (lol, Herman the German Sherman)

Added 7 years ago and doesn’t come to sale but I don’t exactly think it should be in the tree just like I don’t really think the Churchill should be there either

just like TIII and the removed welington without mods they shouldnt be added as they subtract value from other trees

better option add it as a skin for the OG vehicle as it would give many vehicles some very unique skins
like i would LOVE to see the S35 get this as a skin

I think adding them as unique skins would be really cool, the S35 skin is great by the way!

I mean we have sweden kungistiger so why not but i dont think its necessary for american because of my opinion american 6.7 has strong heavy tank lineup and doesnt need that
Swedish one had more reasoning as Sweden didn’t have a heavy tank at all available
