Probably the Chinese M10 (wrong variant, never used by China in that Configuration), Chinese M36 (should be the M36B2), Chinese T-34 Obr43 (NK tank, never used by China), and probably a couple of others on iffy ground as is.

I believe the fine mold files are now public. Unfortunately, it doesn’t contain any further info as to the vehicles construction. It’s just more blueprinting

As much as I dislike the vehicle’s effect on the game (especially as a premium pack vehicle), there’s zero difference in surviving documentation between the Ostwind 2 (1 possibly functional prototype and some turrets, zero photos) and the Zerstorer 45 (2 possibly functional prototypes and some turrets, zero photos), but somehow only one gets the love here. :) They even ended up in the same junkheap, basically.
oh yea true.
zestorer 45 should be deleted too
Frankly, I’d just like Gaijin to acknowledge that they’re dubious and for them to add the real Zerstörer 45
Ironically, what we have in-game did exist; it’s a factory test mule that had the quad 30 strapped to it for trials to see if the gun could work on the move. It’s just not the real Zerstörer 45.

Its much like the 105 GSR we mentioned. Sadly all there is to really go by are drawings, sketches and very limited information.
Making a model kit of something is also sadly not quite the same as a fully functional 3D model with detailed internals, functionality and damage model.
We don’t have any current plans for any other Ho-Ri variants. As the vehicle only started construction at best, its not something we have under consideration at this time.

Ah well, that’s quite a shame. Thank you for the response, Smin.
Of course, I was just wondering since it was via that information that Wargaming was able to make their functional 3D Model for World of Tanks. So I was just wondering if there was anything FineMolds had that would help Gaijin. But I know different games have different standards and requirements, etc.

Other games may have much lower requirements, particularly when it comes to damage models being more simplified or the lack of any detailed 3D interiors or DM interactions in that way. So sadly what may work for one could be quite different here.

Does Gaijin currently have any plans to give it a 50% discount in the last week before it’s removal?
Of course, I figured other games would be different. I was just asking because I figured that since they’d already provided enough info to make a 3D model, they might have some info that would help; that’s all.
the plane only existed on a brochure tho
Gaijin’s supposed standard for having “built” vehicles is wildly inconsistent.
Ostwind II: actual design unknown, built
Obj 211: Fake
A.C.IV: Planned but not built

I think this one can be considered same situation as Tiger 105 and Ho-Ri because it was added long time ago before this tanks deleting as paper

seriously? the same dev team that implemented Sovetsky Bogus purely as inferiority complex band-aid is worried about “questionable technical research and inaccuracies”?
wow …

Too recent to be removed I think. It was added after gaijin redid their criteria for new additions. It’s also pretty much just a reskinned F-16A-10/15, everything already existed.
They said this and then added the Rafale with AESA one update sooner btw

Are there any plans for the Ho-Ri prototype to be discontinued at 50% off in the last week before removal?

There is never enough info. You folks have been saying this for over 10 full years.
Yet vehicles with almost nothing, Ostwind II, somehow get added.

Unfortunately, they confirmed they won’t be replacing the Ho-Ri Proto or Product with any actual tanks. Pretty much the Ha-Go piss us off scenario again.
Unlike the Maus, Panther II* and 10.5. Which Germany still had several options and more now.
There’s nothing for Japan. Type 99 and Type 75 are Howitzers. Barely perform in any aggressor roles, which the Ho-Ri was good at. Another reason for more players who might be interested in playing Japan to just not.

How complete? There’s a difference between the hull was completed with no engine or test drives being done. Or did the vehicle only exist as a empty hull prior to any actual other tech being added? I think some things need to exist to a certain point like at least a drivable hull but that’s just me.
If anything I’d be fine with the Ho Ri coming in as a dreams come true

Do WT devs have a phobia of the number 50 now? Every 50% sale is now a 30% sale! Like dude you sell $90 premiums you can’t cheap out on the sale!
