A few questions about the upcoming update

[GasMasters-live]

Question 1-what shells do the KV2 and flak 88 have?im hoping the flak 88 gets prox shells so it will be able to fight planes other than AI bombers without relying on luck.

Question 2-what are the reload speeds of the cannons on the KV2 and flak 88?mim curious as to how much longer its going to take to reload the KV2 vs an IS2,and same with the flakbus.

Question 3-how much will these squads cost?id like to get them but if the price is too high i dont think I will be able to.

Could either @James_Grove or @Euthymia07 help out with these questions?Thanks in advance.

would the shell reach AI bomber dam should have thought of that

There is no proximity shell for it in War Thunder so most likely not.

yes there are?

FLAK 88mm goes BOOOM (War Thunder Gameplay)

edit… or… time shells.

actually, they are not not really the same thing i suppose but still.

But still what?
They are two different shell.

[ErikaKalkbrenner]

i mean, those are meant to be used for airplanes.

which would make both cool and… i guess half functional the flak 88 being used for destroying planes.

since… that’s what the 88 was designed for initially.

not to mention, you don’t need a specific shell for a specific gun.

you can reuse other ones and give it to the flak bus

@ErikaKalkbrenner thanks for vid, you just sold a the upcoming Flak 88, to me with that vid

It doesn’t have proximity fuse shells, but they self destruct in the air

[ErikaKalkbrenner]

does it have the reticle though?

Proximity shell is way effective than time fuzed shell since you need to manually set the time fuze and you will miss if you don’t set the correct one.

What do you mean reuse other ones and give it to flak bus?
There is no 88mm Proximity shell in war thunder.

right. i kinda forgot and confused them.

my bad.

@khtk395

There is no 88mm Proximity shell in war thunder.

what i meant is,

they could reuse other proxy. or make one for the 88 for enlisted.
… even though it would be weird not having one for war thunder too.

but i think it would make it interesting in enlisted and functional.

well, a bit confused and still sort of brainstorming, but i think it would be cooler if it gets the proxy.
also, slighlty weird that apcs do have AA reticles, yet the 88 for this flak ( not confirmed yet ) might not.

that’s all

EDIT: it actually has it, nice.
so… here’s that.

Don’t expect much from dev that can’t even make 37mm HE shell for Japan tank despite being requested multiple times.

[ErikaKalkbrenner]

true…

[Euthymia07-live]

It has it iirc

[ErikaKalkbrenner]

ah, nice. thanks for the replay.

i was a bit worried for a moment.
in one of those sudden inconsistencies.
but glad to know i was wrong.
