while US have ton of SPAA prototype to add. Not to mention even Humvee with minigun would do the job just fine. 

HUMVEE with 25mm Bushmaster on roof would be fun too!

Very happy to see this! Looking forward to the patch.

Very good.

 

I have some tanks to re spade now. And those AA MGs will be handy to fend off aircraft.

Still missing the:

Marder III, Panzer III L, Panzer IV J, Panther D, Panther F, StuG III G/StuH 42, Jagdtiger, Sdkfz 234/3, & Brummbar

Also still missing the early stuff:

It would be nice if we could swap out MG 34s for MG 42s in the game, depending on the player's preference. More pics:

Now that these are available on some tanks in the game, is anyone going to bug report the issue that the weapon mount is unable to elevate to the specified 80°?

And that they are bugged, like the MG on the PakPuma... since it's "launch"... You can see it even better on the Panzer IIIs: it is a MG with a belt. And it fires maybe 20 round before reload. But then suddenly after the reload it has the right amount of round "on the belt". Or the drum. Depending on which tank that MG sits on.

THat's a long known bug from Tiger II SLA where there is no box ++ belt magazine, but a drum one, which is funny because again the drum fits maybe 30-40 rounds and after reload it can fit up to 200.

so when can we get a 20mm on the roof, you know, for balance reasons since the .50 is so over-performing

Start a suggestion for them (on the Stug III G, Tiger II, & Maus):

We didn't even get a plan or blueprint for tiger 2. And the maus one wasonly planned? Why would Gaijin mess with them under circumstances like this?

I have no idea but this is allegedly a wooden (allegedly) mockup of how the MG 151 was installed in the Maus

Not to theorize too much, but to me it looks like the testing / evaluation of an AMX-50 cupola
