Why no M4A2 (75mm) Premium for Soviets?

I’m just curious where there’s no M4A2 (75mm) Premium for the USSR like there is with the Grant, M4A2 (76mm), Matilda, etc. About half of the exported M4A2s were the regular 75mm ones.

Why not? It isn’t exactly necessary for Gaijin to add a 75 Sherman for the USSR as they already have plenty of premium and TT vehicles that make a good lineup around 4.0. You can say the same of why doesn’t the US have a M4A3 (75) in the game (or rather a M4A3 with a 75 period). It’s not really however a question most people here probably have the answer to. The only real answer of why they haven’t is because their isn’t really any reason to do so, after all it will never make as much money for them as a pack premium vehicle and not many people would have an incentive to get it when you have the T-55AM and T-72AV TURMS, it would really just become a premium that most people who would get it would get it for the sake of having it, and the reason I say this is because it’s not like the German M4A2 where it has the benefit of not going up against as many guns that can hurt it as easily. If anything I feel like it would do worse if they added a Soviet one as outside of the tank destroyers I would say Soviet tanks are less threatening to me in a M4A2 than American tanks are.

But Sweden can have Mi-28 they just used in test drive for 30 minutes. Ok.

I am not saying that they can or can’t get the M4A2 with a 75 in-game or if I think its okay or not, but I don’t see why gaijin would choose to do so outside of a event or battlepass. My reasoning for that is that for the most part not many people might buy it compared to a higher tier premium such as… the Mi-28A. It in my view just doesn’t make that much sense on gaijin’s part to add it since it might just become another one of those premium vehicles nobody buys. If they added it I couldn’t care less but I wouldn’t take issue with it being added, I would just view it as pointless more than anything else.

The Soviet tree doesn’t need it. Plus, the Soviets already have a 76mm M4A2 premium.

Agree. Soviets and other nations should get as much shermans as possible

On one side it would be nice, on the other no.
