I’m no expert but I’ve seen photographs of M47s, M48s and M103s equipped with IR spotlights employed for night vision. I know for a fact that the M48A1 in WT did have this spotlight before, but they removed it for some reason.
Is this some sort of artificial nerf?
Gaijin removed NVDs for low BR vehicles.
??? But the Wiesel has thermals at 7.3, the ASU-85 has NV in 6.3, the Panther II in 7.0… not to mention the ASU-57 (4.3) ??? I don’t get why they artificially removed NV from other vehicles… The Pattons ain’t that low in BR either imo.
I rechecked the changelog, apparently gaijin only removed NVD as a modification but the vehicles that had it irl got this modification as stock. You can try it out by pressing your NVD key bind.
I’m currently grinding the Chinese M48 and it has NVD
Well then, it’s a cosmetic issue. Feels weird to have NV with no illuminator. Ty for the info!
IR lamps aren’t necessary btw. It only increases the range of NVD
