BA:64 :D! Back when I play RO:Ostfront that's what we all called them. Since they are a common late was vehicle, it would make sense.

Hm. I would've guessed the VW Beetle, but that one's already in.

If FH2 had this quality of models we'd already be fighting in the moon instead of waiting for ostfront....

Sorry for nitpicking, but can anyone give a source for 'Bobik' nickname? In English Google returns only article on Wikipedia without source, and in Russian 'Bobik' is a nickname, mostly associated with this car: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UAZ-469 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UAZ-469) ('Bobik' is a common name for a mongrel, and front of UAZ-469 looks like dog's muzzle).

**** YEAH! I love RO1 and BA64s are hilarious. Especially with the mod that lets them fly around... Dear god no.

Either way its awesome to see Clown cars in FH2

a nice thing about the BA64 is that the DT MG had a very high elevation

STUKAS! YE BE WARNED!

Also in 1944, BA's also got built with 12.7mm DSHK MG's, will we be seeing those aswel?
