Well that's pretty obvious. Russian smoke grenade and satchel charge, right?

(which means we only lack USSR AA guns and finished maps for EF, hooray!  8))

EDIT: it could also be the ROKS flamethrower as gamerjer mentioned, that would be cool

Maybe if I mention it is 2 renders containing a total of 3 things.  Of which not all belong to the same country.

A barbecue for the Australians on Giarabub.

Great to see how it's still moving forwards. Hope a new release can give the playernumbers a little boost as well, and maybe ye olde 762 could freshen up their map list but that's a whole other discussion.

It was in game files for long time, but never announced officialy, because it was never used on any official map.

You could probably see it on some tournament or other custom map.

It has actually been in the game files for a while now I think, but you might also be thinking of the Panzerfaust 30 that was added with 2.2.

Faustpatrone was used at least on one of the custom maps - Etna line for sure!

But will the faustpatrone appear on the eastern front only ?

Does the RPG-43 have the streamer in-game? Seems like it would be pretty tough to do, not sure if you guys worked some magic though :)

Also, was it common for smoke grenade's to be designed to float? Seems pretty damn smart.

The faustpatrone was more common then you think, as it was cheaper and simpler to manufacture then the Panzerfaust. Also it was alot lighter,  3.1 KG vs 5.2 KG

Maybe there will be two Faustpatrones in kit?

Not much of a difference, mostly historical accuracy, but smaller warhead = smaller penetration (capable of destroying most if not all soviet tanks at the time, anyway), it's just a panzerfausts' older brother. Still it gonna be superior to any other handheld AT weapon on the Eastern Front, what makes it a valuable weapon to use or capture on the battlefield.

ok, thanks for the info  :)

Actually it should be rather useless against T-34's or do very little damage as the odd shape of the warhead would make it often ricochet on a sloped armor.
