The Soviet Union’s weakness wasn’t in the air - both of their opponents had a tank T-0 advantage
Worse than the current one ingame?
Well, think about it from another perspective. It’s actually good enough that they can now come up with pay-to-win content. They weren’t even capable of doing this before. Most of their past in-game items brought little profit, failed to attract players and were eventually taken off sale in a hurry.
The fact that they can launch such content means they can make profits, which keeps the game running. Right now, our top priority is to urge them to add more anti-aircraft vehicles to the tech tree.

Actually, sending anti-aircraft weapons to the Soviet Union was completely unnecessary - the 25mm AAA was already pretty powerful
Yeah It don’t have a armor plate for protect the gunner
Premium squads always have their own squads (vehicles do not get added to existing squads), in this case they come with new German (Kugelblitz) and British (Skink) premium squads.
The tankers of the Skink squad will have British uniforms, as we don’t (at least for now) have Canadian ones - though the British and Canadian did have quite similar tanker uniforms regardless.

Well since planes can 3d spot tanks behind walls and trees at 2000 meters distance by just spamming the spot button - I doubt that they will be better on their own.

Germany’s situation is different though - their opponent is the US, and the US Air Force has air superiority at all levels from 2-5, plus they have super-strong payload capabilities
I dont think that those AA vehicles will be that much worse than the standart engie AA gun.
If the enemy is skilled with the AA there is little point in playing in a plane unless you got rockets enough to spam from 1-2 km away. So if the AA now also takes up an vehicle slot there is a serious drawback to it now.
EDIT: The AA gun was unspotable to planes but a tank isnt. So this time there even is counterplay to the AA.
Maybe we should allow spawning an extra dedicated AA vehicle on the map that doesn’t take up regular tank slots.
It could have its own separate AA icon without conflicting with tanks, and only one such vehicle can appear per match.
Your concern makes total sense. If two players both bring anti-air vehicles, our team will get easily crushed by enemy tanks.

Well with rendering of 500 meters and bombs being bugged good luck at BR II and BR III matches against this AA vehicles.

When can the 88mm Flak 37 Sfl premium get functional timed fuse HE shells so we can get some actual thunder in the sky?

Yes but it would only have an effect in the first moments, 5-10 minutes and it’s destroyed

On the one hand - if you have them take a tank slot, people will use them and stay in the backline waiting for planes effectively making your team lose a tank.
On the other hand if you create a special slot for just for one AA tank per team, you risk having even less active players on the field.
