I hope we get the ICV and not just the RCV. Still a welcome addition but I’d like to see the one going into service. RCV will be fun with its enhanced scouting capability though.
Theyll probably drip feed them if they only add one this patch
Well, the purpose of it being premium is to make sure those snail street stock exchangers doesnt get upset - they can rightfully sue gaijin for this, since IRL money is involved. Plus, WW2 or low tier premiums arent exactly popular in the first place, but someone would eventually buy it. The last sub-7.0 prem I remembered selling good is probably the tigris, and its heat died down pretty quick. Well, I might buy it on anniversary sale, but depends on how much the obj292 would cost by then.
Idk its pretty clear gaijin has no interest in finland being a good sub nation by anymeans and yet here we are still waiting for it to have been a good addition. Idk its easily the most mid sub tree.
I mean if you wanna buy it to have it go for it. I have no interest in a vehicle that has no purpose
I mean the tigris. But anyways, gaijin is just being lazy here, Finland has some very perculiar upgrades to soviet designs like a certain cursed BMP.
And yes I know BMP-1KT isnt the right name but.
Idk, ive been tempted by the tigris, i can use it with my two favorite vehicle on italy being the m18 and r3t20 so that actually has a better lineup than sweden not to mention the tigris is actually good
Or the engine and transmission upgrade to the t 72 bringing it to 890 hp, or giving finland the t72 fin mod. Of course gaijin will just make them premium instead of TT or just never add them since they dont care about finland.
In some ways good. At least they dont give Finland the Swedish treatment, at least we dont need to see a fourth nation getting hands on MiG-29.
Id rather see a nation be good than bad. Besides i wouldve like to see the mig 21 MGBT
Despite being lazily made, arguably over half the Finnish vehicle still has a role, at least land wise.
Charioteer plays an auxiliary role for 6.7, which can somewhat be replaced with the kungstiger
T-54 enables a well-protected MBT for 8.0, which was quite potent with strv 103A, IKV, and other support vehicles like VIDAR
T-55M and more importantly ITPSV marksman is the backbone of 8.7
T-72M1 offers something well-protected, again, for 9.3, whereas the strv 105 has…questionable surviability at best
L2A4 and L2A6 are meant to be the last resorts after all strv 122s has died, still, better than like first spawn MBT of Britain, China, Israel(the ICU trio), France, arguably the US as well
Talking about bad nations, duh, the ICU(aka ISR, CHN, UK) trio seems to get a bit of ICU care.

Okay first off nobody is realistically playing 9.3 sweden. The only popular BR’s are 8.0, 8.7, and 10.0+
Also while i wont argue that 10.0 and 8m7 add ons were great if your entire nation is really only good at those brs thats pretty sad ngl.
And finland air added nothing except fucking you over from obtaining rank 8. That was finlands purpose was to sell players the saab35xs or you would be forced to grind the entire TT to get a shit viggen at 11.7 vs mig 29 and f16
But you’re right, on release the only good add ons from finland were the panzer IV and t34 before they decided the t34 qas on par with the KV-1b/e and the t34E and also ruing the 3.7 lineup so…
Then the t55m was alright and the leopards were cool but the itpsv 90 isnt worth it as an spaa half the time since id rather take any turret with the closer arms like the ZA 35, gepard ect.
Also the charioteer was dumb they couldve added the version with the 105 since it was unique and it wouldve been a better and more unique option then the half assed copy paste we did get. At least with hungary we got some useful air vehicles that filled in BR’s where we were missing stuff though a real shame we didnt get anything unique. Ground wise it was pretty good, minus the Csaba. Everything else was fairly good. The lynx was meh but for the most part everything was solid. Especially having access to more 7.x vehicles
I just learned the vehicle would only have a 30mm canon- no ATGMs of any kind… guess it isn’t all that suitable for 11.7 after all :(
Yeah, it’s probably 9.7 material (corrected to match the VBCI-2). Both variants tbh. Maybe later down the line they’ll add some ATGM’s, likely to the ICV variant since that one is going into service.
I’ll still use it at top with its high mobility and pen to flank/knock out modules but nothing beyond that.

2A4 doesn’t have a dozer blade which makes it better.
The PLSS will have a new friend
Plus why wouls it be 10.0 when compatible vehicles such as the french vbci are like 9.7
Idk, Gaijin Entertainment®
