Now there is really no reason not to do it,especially since the penetration values of the M1 bazooka completly invalidate any armour advantage you would have over long panzer 4s,the only feasible advantage you had.The StuG has already been able to be penetrated by 37 and 45mm cannons quite easily as well.Then there are the many reasons the StuG is inferior to long panzer 4s:no machine guns at all (this should be changed,StuGs did have MG mounts),casemate,slow,and not nearly as versatile as any normal tank.If this is done,with the upcoming +1 BR tank to fight a higher BR tank,it will allow you to fight shermans and KV1s/T34s much easier than with something like the puma or panzer 3J1 when someone plays BR1.

I think that would be nice and at least worth trying, same for the Ho-Ni3, Means we could see vehicles like a TT variant of the su-76/su-76D/su-57B (or maybe go all in on a su-122) and maybe something like a 3 inch gun carrier(?)/M3 Halftrack with 75mm Gun added in the future as well.

They should just folder the Ho-Ni 1 and 3

Its got a BR3 gun and BR1 armor - this alone should mean it should move to BR2, even though we should also speak about the disadvantage of having no MG or turret.

I mean, the gun only has 13mm more penetration than the Ho-I’s gun (with HEAT, my beloved) - it’s not THAT much better. There’s no reason to use it.

It has merit, but unless they are gonna crack down and folder all the trees at once, there isnt much urgency to it
