Scout Drone for 8.0 Light Tanks

Game Discussion Realistic Battle

Currently, exclusively light tanks at rank VI and higher have access to a scout drone. I would propose a rework with a feature similar to the mechanic where the nuke starts to be accessible at a certain BR: exclusively in 8.3 and above matches, 8.0 tanks can also use a scout drone. Also, in matches lower than 8.3, i,e 7.3-8.3 game, scout drones cannot be used. Also, an SP system for drones should be implemented. My proposal would be to drain 20-30sp for every minute used. This would stop people from doing this:

This proposal would help nations with a BR gap of light tanks that have a scout drone and would prevent players from excessively using the drone to gain SP and spawn CAS. What are your thoughts?

I don’t think that’s technically how scout drones are distributed right now. The rule is actually for light tanks of Rank VI and above, not by BR. It just so happens that the vast majority of light tanks of Rank VI are at least 8.3. The single exception is the Chinese M41D, which is at 8.0 but gets a scout drone.

Oh, I never knew that, so it’s based off of rank rather than BR? Changed it now.

M551 had it before its rank changed, well and after for a bit due to a bug
