Not only that would be nice to have a toggle on the war thunder market to remove all skins a player has collected and only show skins that are unowned.

Especially now there over a million skin boxes to search through and no easy way to filter them

never thought of this before, but this still sounds really useful

AND IT HAS A 50MM GUN!

Finally, potential for a Light vehicle addition with more interesting armament than the dull and insufficient 30mm.

That will be even better than the 40mms!

are there any WT pen estimates?

According to the Lanz-Odermatt formula, we should be looking at 340mm!

Accounting for the following data;

  1. Penetrator length: 228 mm

  2. Penetrator density: 17,500 kg/m³ (heavy tungsten alloy)

  3. Penetrator diameter: 18 mm (estimate for a 50mm caliber apfsds round)

  4. Muzzle velocity: 1,600 m/s

However, I wonder if I got anything wrong… this penetration is insane! Maybe 228mm is the length of the entire shell and not the penetrator, and the penetrator is actually much shorter?

In any case; a light vehicle armed with such a weapon would DEFINITELY interest me, even more so than a new Abrams, I may go as far as to state. It could basically be a better HSTV-L; with 3rd gen thermals, higher penetration, higher rate of fire, MUCH more ammo, missiles…

it is.

yeah 200rpm would be incredible

And, at least, 80 rounds! HSTV-L’s rack feels anemic.

That seems sensible! Outstanding for a FULL autocanon.

I’m an MBT person, but THAT is a light vehicle I would look forward as much as SEPv3, almost!
