[Discussion]BR5 buildings

This thread is not so much a suggestion as it is an invitation for you all to discuss.
My own ideas are not yet clear, but if you all have good ideas, please put them here.

Although the BR system has been incorporated into the game for some time now, the buildings of the Engineers are identical in every BR. I think it would be more fun if each BR had its own level of engineering buildings.
For example, flak, I think that the regular AA could be replaced again by the Four Flak 38 in high BR to counter the high speed & high firepower fighters in high BR.

And, Introducing BR in buildings would provide more machine gun turrets and buildings. Surely that would be fun.

How to give BR to the engineers is debatable.
Just like in the paratroopers’ box, the buildings of the engineering troops could be changed automatically by their BRs to change their buildings.
Alternatively, the tools that the engineers can equip with could have BR ranks, and a “super hammer” could be sold in the store that would allow them to build more advanced buildings.
By selecting the hammer, the player can choose whether the soldier will be able to build advanced, high-cost buildings or low-cost, business-as-usual buildings.

So, what do you think?
Do you agree or disagree?
What mechanism would you prefer to give the BR system to the building of the Engineers?
What would you like to see given to low and high BR buildings?

who in god name built that weird mg34? or maybe mg131 aa monstrosity.

anyway yea at least heavy aa (the quad and japanese triple aa gun) could be for br5 I guess since those are fun to use in MOH pacific i always just hop in and shoot infantry with it and definitely want it in enlisted (even tho it can only hit air only nowadays)

At least they should let you fight a Jagdpanther with a 57mm cannon.

Soviet strapped 20ish captured MG34 as improvised AA platform…

Tier I Engineers get to build the Browning 1917, and Tier II Engineers get to build the Browning 1919A4.

Russians: Tier I can build the Maxim 1910; Tier II can build the SG-43 Goryunov

Germans: Tier I can build Maschinengewehr 08; Tier II can build the MG 34

Japanese: Tier I can build the Type 92 HMG; Tier II can build the Type 1 HMG

I’d honestly replace AAA in engineer 1 with a machinegun capable of anti-aircraft fire; be it a heavy or a “sustained fire”/“medium” MG;

and leave autocannon AAA for Engineer II and/or III, but allow said autocannons to fire horizontally again, with non-nerf’d damage.
