i just believe it defeats the entire point of having different TTs
That’s a fair point, i just want them as the 5.0-6.3 lineup isn’t that big and I’d like to have more vehicles, there may be other Scandinavian vehicles that could go there instead of the vehicles i said, which should go there instead of them, although i do believe the Panzer V would make a good event/tt vehicle (pls dont make it prem gaijoob)
AR isn’t the best of sources tbh, but the only mobility improvement it mentions are newer tracks (likely the same ones that 2A7V commercialized). So per so, not a real improvement.
Indeed.
You want alternatives to C&P vehicles? Okie-dokie here I go.

- Wegmann smoke launchers (4 on each turret side)

- Night vision periscope for driver & commander (Texas Instruments)
- New fire control system (AEG Telefunken)
- New fire-suppression system (Firewire)
- Halogen searchlight on mantlet
- Storage bustles on turret with spaced armor capabilities
- New sideskirts
- Revised internal layout
- Add-on tracks fitted to hull front
- 7.62 DISA machine gun mounted on commander’s cupola
- Thermal sleeve for 76mm gun
Almost none of the actual tanks you posted could fit the gap i was talking about, but thanks
Swedish Churchill didn’t have any armament. One Churchill ARV was actually in service before the Centurion ARV came along but it wasn’t armed either
What you need Medium tanks? I got you.
Strv m/42 TM, Strv m/42 TH, Strv m/42 TV And the freaking BBV m/42!
No? okie-dokie
Wait no wrong tank
Huh, i just realised scandinavia never utilised heavy tanks since their terrain wouldnt allow it
Now I’m not sure about the Churchill, but at least Panther was only acquired for testing rather than any intention of seeing service. I’d rather see something like AMX-13 being added as a 6.7 premium since it was actually seriously considered for service twice and tested in Sweden
Best actually swedish tank options for rank 4 at this point is probably the other strv 74 which only differs in gearbox and would effectively be a copy paste lineup filler. While not proper tanks, there is stuff like the 122 PsH 74 (2S1) and 155GH52-SP-T55 as big gun vehicles for rank 4. BMP-25 or Pasi with the same 25 mm turret might work there too after the pbv 501 too but not sure
The fact that we still dont have the Strv m/40L with Rb 51’s is criminal
Swedish tank weirdness is honestly underrepresented in game, sure the 103 and 74 do their job but were’s this kind of stuff?
Why do I try telling people copy paste literally remove any fun from the game.
playing a Abrams vs Abrams, T80 vs T80, i just- ughhh
I can definitely accept modified variants or every once in a while rare premiums. that wont end up in every match.
Like the Norwegian M24 Chaffee with a AML-90 cannon or etc.
this is the kind of stuff I love to see!! Sweden is all about being weird and unique!
Getting articulated vehicles would do a lot of good for Swedish weirdness too
Hear me out
Indeed, the newest spaa ordered for testing by the Swedish army is one im looking forward to,
Triple RBS 70 NG launcher on a Bv 410, already like the 410 so this is fantastic.
At least one Kranvagn can be added lol.
