i just dont see much sense in letting the panther 2 get it and not let the G model have it as it did historically

As a premium vehicle it would be cool

nah wouldnt make sense as the model in game is the exact same and plus we have ostwind pack

i was thinking it being a modification you just reasearch as why not and you can un equip it if you dont want it

Yes please! Would be a very cool addition.

this is where WOT got the idea to put an NVD system on a schmalturm and call it panther 2 for gaijin to copy without researching the actual tank.

would make a good premium as its a lot more real than a ostwind 2, panther F or 2, it actually saw service and got beyond prototype

we dont need more premiums to ruin another BR

its 6.0 it already has the tiger pack there it wont make a difference. Interesting vehicles like this work good as premiums as they are pretty similar but still unique

There are no night missions anymore, so why bother? It just gives away your position behind hilltops and might offer a shell trap for all these 155mm howitzers.

Exactly. IIRC something like 80 Panthers received FG1250s, mostly Gs. That’s out of the 3,000 Gs produced. I’d rather see this as a premium, being more unique than just a reskin like so many other, while also not resulting in every player and their mother equipping rare, useless, and frankly ugly NVD because they don’t know that night battles don’t happen anymore

neat, but slightly pointless. Would still like to see it, though.

I don’t really see a problem, just be sure that it has all the needed stuff for a suggestion

they already did and it was removed because it didn’t actually exist

they did on panther 2 not panther G the night vision system is real unless your telling panther G 801 is fake which it isnt

^This…
What is be the point of having an NVD on a vehicle which cannot get into night battles? Besides of what Thodin wrote, the only thing it would cause is increase in RP and time needed for spading the vehicle, not to mention increased repair cost…

Yeah this.

I removed NVD from all my tanks before Gaijin did to reduce repair costs. It looks cool and would make a great premium, but it’s functionally pointless and offers no meaningful advantage.

easy.

IT LOOKS COOL AF

Even for the in-game Panther II with the NVD modification selected off. You can get more gun depression in the front middle of the tank while also visually disguising yourself as a regular Panther F.

Unless night battles get added to lower tiers, it serves no purpose other than to look cool on tanks for aesthetics, honestly.

the whole vehicle is fake because the one in that image was just a mockup and didn’t actually work, IIRC

The night vision FG1250 ‘Sperber’ could be added to alot systems. Not just Panthers or Panther Gs. Its an addon mod. Sub-versions of that FG could be also mounted on guns like MG42 or Stg44 etc. You could make it work with every vehicle…
