I have wondered if we add a support role vehicle to the battles, what would be the end result. This is a typical kubel wagen that’s been armored and added a MG34 gunner which could assist in supporting german defensive or some cases on the offensive. Crew would be consisting of a gunner, driver

probably a little change to avoid getting any potential suing
there was a MG mount for the Kubelwagen however. Afrika Korps got their kubel wagen mg right on the front but the non-afrika korp one got it in the middle of car mounted

If german army was in the africa campagins, the kubelwagen can very much be intoduced there with an mg on the front to support the infranty in some way

that I know, but the Kubelpanzer was just made as a dummy tank for training.
Germans trained their soldiers with mock-up tanks so they would get training as close to the real deal as possible (smart thinking tbh).
But why would a dummy tank need an actual gun? I doubt the kubelpanzer had one.

my guess is, if you wanted to shoot blanks or get the real deal at the risk of injury or death ofc
Would love to have that in a support role
theKdF/Volkswagen Typ 82/3 Kubelwagen
Armored version of the Volkswagen Kubelwagen was fitted with a new body made by Ambi-Budd Presswerke Berlin. 80 and 100 of these vehicles were produced, fitted with removable dummy tracks and a rotating turret mounted a machine gun, imitating a tank, they were used for training tank crews, the track units were removed when deployed. The vehicle had no doors, entry was through the turret hatch. They were supposed to replace the Kfz 13 armoured cars, they were mainly used in Russia.

this is a exelent reshearch for rieder class, still this need to be a BRII or even BRIII due it,s armor that will save you ass.
since it,s not Anti tank one or Ampibius it,s still can be a free one. a not premiun content.

Good job.
imagine driving your amphibious kubelwagen with the anti aircraft gun on it playing “who sunk my battleship” with the enemy team. I’d be a mistake not to have this fun in enlisted.
