Vehicle crews do not react to enemies

Tank tiger E machinegunner simply doesn’t shoot at enemies, even if they are in front of the tank.
The shooters on the Ju plane are also not reacting efficiently, as usual.

AI hull gunners aren’t a feature on any tank, so this is normal.

Known bug, will be fixed in one of the next updates.

Are they planned to ever be at least to some extent?

Feels weird to have a forward facing MG on your Tiger which does absolutely nothing.

I guess is shouldn’t be so hard since hull MGs are working on most pacific tanks + new premiums ones like JP in Berlin.

But I don’t think it will ever be controlled by AI but by player.

With the accuracy of the AI?
They need the stabilized MG with no recoil just to hit a barn.
However, the MG in the hull controlled by AI to deal with approaching enemies would be a nice addition.

Two different stuff, those hull mg you mentioned are able to fire in War Thunder, so dev can just use it. The hull mg OP mentioned cannot be fired in War Thunder, meaning that dev need to make it work.

AI are very accurate when firing from vehicles. All of my apc crew are guaranteed to get at least 3 kills while i am driving
