The strv 2000 was a tank from sweden with an 140mm canon and a 40mm canon it was sadly only a 1:1 scale woden mockup but all the tech existed
The udes 20 xx was a real tank made to see how the future of tanks would look like how ever only 1 was made and it got stuck in trenches due to its body
The one on the left is the udes 20 xx and in the middle is the strv 2000
UDES XX 20 has higher chances to come to the game as it was a functional vehicle, as for the UDES 15/16 and Strv 2000, the chances are about none considering that the vehicles wasn’t fully built.
I wish the requirement for fully built vehicles would go, seeing as how its already been violated many times and realism flew out the window a long time ago. As long as the vehicle had a realistic chance to be built/functional, it would allow a lot more vehicles to be added especially for nations lacking as many choices as the “biggest” tech trees.
There is no such requirement.
Aslong as specific parts were made for a vehicle, even if the entire vehicle was never completed, it can be added in accordance to it’s official blueprints.
For example, I asked a suggestion-mod about ET3/73,which was a KanJaPz Belgienausführung, which was to be modified and fitted with the Oerlikon GDD-A turret.
The modifications to fit said turret were all completed, the turret trialed on another hull though. As the trials came to an end, the turret never ended up being fitted to ET3/73 but it can still be added, as the KanJaPz hull was modified specifically for this purpose, i.e. a major specific component built.
Mockups (which Strv 2000 was) do not count for this rule. The other vehicles were partially completed/functional prototypes and can thus be added.
There are also a ton of public BOFORS patents for the autoloaders of each of these vehicles, so they can be modelled in accordance to those technically speaking.
Been a while since i was looking around for it so my memories is a bit vague but i think the plan was to potentially modify an imported 140mm from germany or such
if we use this pic for an idea, the main cannon is blue which means the system exists but would need to be adapted/modified
Also we likely wont get this due to the fact that gaijin just cant make articulated vehicles as seen by the elde. They just have horrid mobility since the game engine just doesnt do those things
It would be one thing if there were already a lot of vehicles implemented in the national tree, but if there are only a few vehicles implemented in the national tree, wouldn’t it be okay to add more? I think it’s better to protect the uniqueness of the national tree than to run out of ideas or create copy-paste vehicles.
Also, I love strange tanks like the S-Tank, so I’m all for adding them!
Absolutely, Sweden made heaps of unique tanks because they haven’t been at war, so they had time and resources to experiment. And I feel like I wouldn’t be alone if I said that the majority of Sweden’s tanks should be those unique ones
