They didn’t

The Italians on the other hand did operate Bf-109K’s.

We are now on day 2 for the report of the M1296 Dragoon missing spall liners, without ANY sort of acknowledgement.

But hey, at least they have time to respond to the Dragoon not having a “vismod”. Really love how we are prioritizing the important things here, smh.

There seems to be a dev update… let’s see if THIS time they add/fix something for Ground Top Tier or if I am to be disappointed yet again, although I really don’t have any expectations at this point… xd

try year 2 on no chally spall liners

One of the most blatantly intentional artificial nerfs.

There’s just NO WAY they still haven’t figured these are missing.

I know there are reports that have been open longer, it’s very unfortunate. The M1128 has been missing spall liners for 2 years as well, and if they had added them, I wouldn’t need to make a report for the Dragoon (as they use the same chassis). However, I was hoping since we are on the dev server, the new vehicles would receive quick responses so they can be added in proper states. 2 days (so far) IS NOT a quick response. And I push for this report so much, because I see all the other vehicles that have had reports open for 2+ years, and don’t want to be THAT.

@Smin1080p_WT is there any reason this hasnt been implemented yet?

Lies! These are just cushions so that the crew doesn’t hurt their heads during a bumpy ride! xD

its actually a footrest for the driver

Spall liner reports typically require additional investigation to confirm for sure on which variants it is relevant too and then also schedule in the modeling and 3D visual development.

This report is still open.

A whole year of “additional investigation” and modeling? How about proper research when developing the vehicle in the first place so we can avoid this altogether?

@Smin1080p_WT what about the spall liner on the Leopard 2PL? It’s been accepted for 2 years now

And does that process really take 1+ year when there’s such clear photographical evidence?

I also wonder- all Challenger 2s ingame are established to use the same hull, it’s effectively the same tank over and over again except with different add-on armor packages and external and turret upgrades at most (except for 2E’s powerplant). How can there be any debate whether some may have the LFP liners or not when everything else is identical?

(I am sorry you are being bombarded with this again, it’s just so disappointing that certain issues remain open for so long to no avail that we always end up desperately trying to resort to drawing attention to them in hopes of them finally being fixed.)

Italy had a lot of Bf-109 variants in service, not sure if we need even some of them in the tree.
It’s still rather strange to have Hungarian F-4 and G-2 in the tree, but not Italian though.

just realised the f16c 52 now has the maw rails with bol sadly only for ground ordinance

theres a lot of reports on the chally 2 and others that could have been implemented a while ago

If the report is still open, that means it is likely not this update. As the developers are focused on the current major update reports right now.

It’s been closed for a while now

This is exactly the chronical issue with these important bug reports.

Reported 2 years ago.
“Accepted 2 years ago”.

Yet, in all these 2 years, there seemingly hasn’t been time to finally fix it…

And in some cases, such as Type 10’s steering, we are talking about such timeframes like 5 YEARS (five). Since 2021, since the first Type 10 was added to the game.

In these 5 years, there hasn’t been time to change the 2 wrong inertia values that don’t allow the tank to turn properly.

@Smin1080p_WT Could we finally see AS.34 Kormoran added to some TT vehicles like the German Tornados and the F-104G this update or at some point this year?

IIRC the reason for it only being for the event Tornado MFG was to give it something exclusive but we have now since had another event vehicle, the F-5AG, that was the first with AGM-119 Penguin but has since been featured on TT vehicles (Norwegian F-16AM and soon their F-16A). So why should Kormoran stay exclusive to a single aircraft but other ASM’s can go to many?
