Btw are we talking infinite grenade here or limit? just asking so i can make sure to keep my jeep functional and not blown up.
I mean having no limit is nice since it make jeep an actual threat
Unlikely as off-road vehicles, because they are allowed to capture points. You can’t have an armoured car capturing a point…
Will sd.kfz.221 become an off-road vehicle or stay in tank class?

I believe Soviet‑main players would be absolutely thrilled.
After all, the previous motorcycle squad was only armed with the DP‑27.
The motorcycle squad with DS‑39 is locked within the premium squad pool, and buying it with real‑world money is hardly a smart pick.
It would be amazing if we get DS‑39 a second time within a regular silver‑cost squad. Even if this squad doesn’t have an exceptionally high performance ceiling, at least we are not getting DT‑29 or yet another DP variant.
If DF releases a premium squad armed with the DShK heavy machine‑gun, I would even purchase it just to give it a try.
Only to their team.
Ammo boxes all have limit. No reason to expect grenade boxes not to have one.
While Slakrr’s videos are interesting of course, he posted some video on this topic about ~2 months ago, give or take, which would be quite an insanely quick turnover if we are assuming we only used his video to decide on this!
We actually had these off-road vehicles planned a lot longer in advance than that! Making new things like this often takes a lot more time to sort than 2 months!

Also, jeeps should be 4 personnel minimum imo.

Seriously? We been asking for the RIDER class to use it. Why are you replacing an actual good class with a vehicle that no body will now use.
While its good to have a Lewis gun in the TT. We wanted it for br 3! So much for listening to the community.

It doesn’t look like an anti-tank gun it looks more like some kind of mortar with shells.
Wow, it looks like they are going to add them eventually, it is just a matter of time.
Armed jeeps are finally being introduced after such a long wait.
However, only three soldiers per jeep is way too few. Five crew members at least would be reasonable.
Wheeled armored cars are also really important vehicles.
Some vehicles within this game have wheel‑based chassis fitted with cannons or anti‑tank rifles. Logically they ought to be armored cars, yet they are currently categorized as light tanks. If authentic wheeled armored vehicles are added in future updates, the classification of those light tanks has to be revised first.

Not yet. WIP
Ok
Finally! Excellent work and in the TT! This is going to be fun…so if I read correctly they will restock grenades? Nice touch…standard frag or something else?
This vehicle can exist in War Thunder purely because its anti-tank rifle can shoot through crew members.
But considering that even anti-air trucks armed only with machine guns count as tanks in WT, I feel the Sd.Kfz.221 can only show its true potential if it is removed from the tank category and put into a brand-new vehicle type.
Each update delivers less content; even if it’s something people asked for, mounting a machine gun on a jeep and changing its color should take a week or two of work at most—yet this update brings us just a bomber and a single weapon.

I mean pretty sure this update come with an event with jeep squad so it kinda make sense imo.

Who cares, we get enough in events and BP…we got armed jeeps!
Yeah, I did it on purpose 
Looks like MGs on each faction’s off-road vehicle has a characteristic of different advantage
- Soviet, fast fire rate and big ammo DS-39
- German, very fast fire rate but medium ammo MG-34
- Allies slow fire rate but very big ammo Browning MG
- But Japan got slow fire rate and low ammo Type 11?
IDK How about change it to scoped Type 97 MG, so the characteristic of Japan off-road is although low ammo but has a scope that can aim?
Overall the update looks promising, can’t wait!
