i don’t make lots of suggestion like this one, but i guess it wouldn’t hurt to try.
Main Suggestion
today i would like to suggest to introduce in the game the Sdk.fz 251 Ausf D, “22”
( not… in as… today. but somewhere in the future )
i think it could be an interesting vehicle as a side grade.
more of a glass cannon.
the same one that is also present in war thunder
( more technical info here )
it might not suit all taste, but i think it could be an interesting collector vehicle similar to the soviet biplane, sturmer emil or other vehicles.
that’s all.
Historical shell Configuration
uses a 75 mm PaK40/3 L46 cannon with
x5 - heat
x17 - APCB
x26 - HE
x3 - APCR
Cons
- open top
- light armored
- no coax
Pros
- moderate speed
- fast reload
- good shells
- unlike other tank destroyers, the crew can use weapons to cover the rear and sides ( just like APC do )
- ( possible premium bonuses if becomes a premium vehicle )
and since i’m not too picky about where it should go, or what should be, i’ll let folks decide:
This vehicle should be…
- Premium
- Event
- Tech Tree
- In The Bin
This vehicle should only be used by… ( Squad type )
- Tankers
- APC Drivers ( similar to the stummel )
and it’s battle rating should be…
- BR I
- BR II
- BR III
- BR IV
- BR V
and that is all.
nothing too crazy, but. i would love for it’s introduction based on the community decisions.

I think it would be interesting as a tank in BR2.

It could either be a tank for br 2 or apc for br 4

yeah, it is a bit tricky to fully define.
mostly because, the stummel set a precedent.
but in all honesty, either would do for me.
me just want funky truck regardless…
but i think it could serve as both for a nice iconic yet balanced sidegrade.

To be fair you might want create a poll for BR of a tank version and a seperate poll for an apc option.
The one we have is a mess because of it. So are all the BR 3 votes people who want it as a BR 3 tank or a BR 3 apc? idk.
Given how the Marder H is BR 3 there might be an argument for a tank beeing BR 3 but well the marder H isnt used at all so it probably is to high.
Edit: also the stummel was a mistake that should not have been added as an APC in the first place.

We have to be very clear. Vehicles like this should NOT be APCs because they no longer carried infantry. The standard halftracks yes, but the modified ones did not carry infantry because they were used as weapon platforms

I agree on principle, and the Stummel set a very bad precedent… So did the Universal Carrier for that matter…
Though, I’ll just vote gainst it being an APC, and then not cause a fuss over it if it does become one… I got bigger gripes to deal with…
it should be a BR2 tank destroyer, along with the Marder H, and Stug 3F imo.
