Why doesn't ka-mi have floats

Where are the floats?!?! Ka-Chi is fun but when your in water with other Ka-Mi tanks they look so out of place since their floats are missing.

It’s not needed to float. So they’re not modeled.

As far as I am aware neither does the Ka-Chi ingame.

Because it was a gimmick to sell, I mean reward for a summer event.

Many tanks in game have an Amphibious ability, but aren’t given such. (With preparation)

All the Ka-based vehicles didn’t need the floats to float. However, the floats helped a lot when it came to traveling in more harsh water. They also didn’t have them when it was first introduced give or take cause Gaijin A forgot or B wasn’t sure how to add them.

You aren’t the first to ask this, given I been here since 2017(Not the forums but the game it self and discords). Others have asked the same question.

it has floats that you have to unlock as a modification

Gaijin is just too lazy to model floats for the Ka-Mi. The Ka-Chi has them because it came after Ka-Mi, when it was clear that it didn’t need the pontoons to float, so they added them to the Ka-Chi as a gimmick.

Don’t take a Ka-Mi into rough water though. I have drowned a couple time trying to take one into the surf to get to the island on “Jungle”…

The Ka-Mi doesn’t have floats. Unsure where you got this assumption.

The Ka-Chi got them because in most pictures it is depicted with it attached. It also helps in rough water. However, the Ka-Mi was depicted without them. At the time. It’s not a case of laziness do consider deadlines still exist. NOt justifying anything I had the same question when I first started off playing the game. Don’t know why it hasn’t been added sadly.

wrong tank maybe idk im a us main was thinking about the ka-chi prob or something

It has been quite a while since this post started…over a year to be precise but it would be great for the Ka-Mi at some point soon to get it’s floats finally!
