Binnoculars

I suggest the use of binoculars for select soldiers: Tank Commander and Radioman. The Tank Commander could only use the binoculars when the hatch is open allowing him to scan the terrain. Of course the commander would be exposed and at risk.

The Radioman was usually attached to the Platoon leader who had binoculars. The Platoon leader would order the Radioman to call Artillery or contact other units. Since there is no Platoon leader in the game, I suggest that the Radioman can use binoculars to scan for targets.

The binoculars could be another β€œdrop” item that could be used in the equipment slots. It could be earned through combat and not standard issue.

A keypress would allow the binoculars to be used and a second keypress would stow them like a weapon change.

Thank you

on some tank models that would be a useles feature, because of the implementacion of periscopes in late ww2 tanks, some of them even had zoom,

but ill like tho see both

I’d like to see binoculars as a default item for squad commanders.
Captain: I need binoculars, I think you forgot to issue them to me.
Quartermaster: No sir, you have to earn them.
