Could the Fliegerfaust be an event weapon like MP41, not tied to a squad but available to any AT soldier?
In theory, even the fire-dropping planes could be either new squads, or special vehicles for existing squads.

Yeah, plus it sounds like it will be available in progression in future.
I don’t think so.
Unless soviets get Igla as equivalent.
That’s true, I completely forgot this is option as well.
In video, they said something like “participants of event X will be first to try”.
Then I guess devs will find some soviet uber experimental launcher that existed in one piece and was made with WD40 and duckttape.
And make it a regular progresion item of course.

Love the new Italian uniforms
Overall it is a vast improvement and very welcome.
That being said there are a few real issues.
First:
Correct me if I am wrong, but I believe this symbol is a DAK symbol and not Italian. AFAIK the Italians were never issued this badged helmet. It should not be the default item, thus forcing players to pay to get a helmet Italians actually wore.
The Italian M33 helmet you have available is clearly copied from the “3rd Battalian Tobruk” Premium squad. This is fine, but when you scrubbed off the anchor emblem of the Italian Marines, it looks like you LITERALLY scrubbed off the anchor emblem. There shouldn’t be a shiny anchor outline on the helmets. It should be uniform. (on a side note TYVM for finally fixing the uniforms of the 35th infantry Regiment “Pistoia” premium squad uniforms. Looks cool)
Finally:
This is an ITALIAN Radio
This is a GERMAN Radio
The “1st Signals Company” is an Italian unit, yet it comes with German Radios. This should be changed to an Italian radio. You already have the model work done, you just need to make the switch.
There are some other niggling things.
For example the “8th Bersaglieri Regiment” Premium squad comes with a unique uniform, including a fantastic pith helmet. But the troops have no gear at all. Since it is Premium the unique uniform should automatically be augmented with some gear. It doesn’t have to be a lot, maybe just a harness, shoulder pouch, and a shovel guaranteed and then if you equip a pack of any sort let that be added. But it’s just a combat blouse and a belt right now.
This complaint could also be levelled at the “3rd Battlion Tobruk” Premium squad and the “35th Infantry Regiment Pistoia” premium squad. New premium and event squads have pouches and packs everywhere. I think this shouldn’t be too hard as the assets are all done and integrated as of this update. It’s basically just a palette swap. (On a side note the Gorget Patches, or collar flashes, are the wrong color AFAIK they are a more orange, less red, color. I would complain about the Tobruk Marine squad having the wrong Gorget Patches again (they have the RSI ones not the RE ones) but after the merge that won’t matter anymore. The Pistoia ones will though.)
Thanks @ChuchaDrucha and @1942786 for your consideration. And could I please get an answer on whether or not those Helmets are DAK helmets. I’m 99.9% sure. But you guys have a full research department.
@Serpiko82 can you back me up on this?

I mean, fliegerfaust is an ideal candidate for an event / GO weapon.
But I guess it won’t matter, as always.

I’m afraid I only have superficial knowledge (if any) of Italian uniforms details.
But in the road map it shows the new progression system being in the second update? Am I misunderstanding this? I am on the game it seems the same old campaign system is in place?
It’s obvious merge was planned for quite some time to be implemented in today’s update (which I think was postponed as well).
But plans has changed. We know for ±1 month merge is not happening yet.
Then you haven’t been reading anything ELSE they have been publishing over the last month. Funny how you can find that picture while ignoring literally everything else.
I thought I was reading every devblog, was there one I missed where they discussed this? No need to be antagonistic over this buddy, I am just a bit confused.
Oh, really? Was there a devblog that mentioned that?
Haha I figured it would turn up eventually, but not this soon…
Boy are some planes gonna eat it!..fleigerfaust is back babeh!

Yep
Is that even effective? Unless a plane decides to strafe very close, and is almost coming at you in a straight line…
I’ll mostly use it for fun and giggles vs infantry I think 
Oh thanks. After reading that post I wonder if the new progress system will be implemented separately from a major update. Seems sort of implied? Or maybe we’ll get it as part of the next major update?
