The Bob Semple would do fine at the 1.0/Reserve tier as long as it is given the 37mm cannon it was meant to be given. Despite the performance difference, it should remain as a vehicle not connected to the tree meaning if you want to research it you can but it isn’t forced.

That reminds me a bit of Battlestations Pacific.

Yeah I know about the plane (and it’s "parasites), was just curious about the playstyle 😁

Pretty safe to say that would have zero shoot on the move capability…

I don’t know, maybe it could drive slowly or do it partially extended. Definitely unconventional though.

When extended maybe, when retracted it can :-) xDDD

I think the one I’d wanna see would probably have a place…sort of? But I also think it’s just odd enough to be worth considering since it would need to have gunners like a bomber while being a helicopter.

The ACH-47A Guns A Go-Go Chinook. 5 M60D or M2HB MGs in various mounts around it, armament subsystems on either side providing a 20mm Cannon and 19-Tube FFAR pod on each side facing forward, plus a nose/chin mounted M75 40mm Grenade Launcher for thumping. The Rocket Pods could be removed and replaced with M18 7.62 Gun Pods.

Gaijin seems to be trying to remedy this with outside systems to buff these types of vehicles. Might be a stretch from whats revealed to say that exactly, but its certainly a possibility that something like say a BRDM gets added but it has mechanics added to it to make it competitive/support choice for the team.

And as an honorable mention: The Killdozer:
The bulldozer was a modified Komatsu D355A,[3] which he referred to as the “MK Tank” (or “Marv’s Komatsu Tank”[8]) in audio recordings, fitted with makeshift composite armor plating covering the cabin, engine, and parts of the tracks. Three external explosions and more than 200 rounds of ammunition fired at the bulldozer had no effect on it.[16]

For visibility, the bulldozer was fitted with several video cameras linked to two monitors mounted on the vehicle’s dashboard. The cameras were protected on the outside by 3-inch (76 mm) shields of clear bulletproof lexan.[16] Compressed-air nozzles were fitted to blow dust away from the video cameras.[16]

Onboard fans and an air conditioner were used to keep Heemeyer cool while driving. He had made three gun-ports, fitted for a .50 caliber rifle, a .308 caliber semi-automatic rifle, and a .22 caliber rifle, all fitted with a ½-inch (1.3 cm) steel plate.

At the time of the demolition it also contained three handguns and enough food and water to last a week

Maybe, but it’s still pretty hard to justify adding something like this to the game.

Like yeah it’d be cool but at the end of the day it’s just a Wiesel that became like 5x bigger for no advantage whatsoever.

Australian 2-pounder Anti-tank Gun Carrier, ,was built in 1942 by Metropolitan Gas Company in Melbourne.

For the first 2-1/2 years of World War II, the 2-pounder anti-tank gun was the standard towed anti-tank weapon of the British Commonwealth. It was a heavy and cumbersome weapon, so various attempts were made to create self-propelled versions of the weapon. Great Britain, Canada and Australia all designed self-propelled versions using the British Universal Carrier as the base vehicle. In Australia, a domestically produced version called the LP2 carrier was used for there design.

The Australian 2-pounder Anti-tank Gun Carrier, also known as 2-pdr Attack Carrier was built on an extended LP2 chassis. The driver had an open-topped compartment that was armored on the front and sides. The gun was mounted on an open platform at the rear of the vehicle that allowed the gun to be traversed 360-degrees. The vehicle had a crew of 4: commander, gunner, loader and driver. Testing of the first prototypes began in August and September of 1941. At the conclusion of successful trials in February/March 1942, an order for 200 of them was placed with the first one being delivered in May 1942. They were built by Metropolitan Gas Company of Melbourne.

By the time the 2-pounder Anti-tank Gun Carrier came into service, it was already obsolete as the German vehicles it was designed to combat had armor that was too thick for the 2-pdr to successfully penetrate. As a result, all of the carriers were kept in Australia and used as training vehicles and equipment for Australian reserve and volunteer units.
