Lovely renders!

Now when will we get "Stop That Plane!" news post?

+1

4M motorized quad Maxim ?



ZSU-37 ?

Appropriately enough found a site called "Forgotten Weapons" while researching this.

[Ts4EVER]

ZSU 37 was first made in 1945 and only 75.

Ah, but you're quiet about the Maxim ? Can see myself heading for the conspiracies thread.

Maybe M17 ZSU, since there are minor difference between it and M16 we already have ingame?

Hey guys, nice update !

I'm sorry to point that out, I have a great respect for your work but this 45mm is quite wrong.

The soviet 45mm gun had different wheels, these are german ones.



Here's another one :



I also found another type of wheels but they are still not similar to the german ones :



Will it be corrected ?

Dev incoming with another source and a detailed report about wheels of AT guns in 3....2....1....

According to the quick reference quide on the 45 mm M1942 both variants are correct. First wheel with wire spokes is the ZiK-1. The second one is taken from the GAZ-AA truck and almost the same as first one but with spokes being replaced by wheel disk. Btw, ZiK-1 one was more common.

Here are the scanned pages of the manual itself:

Is there a dev to tell us anything about this wheel thing ?

I was hoping for some kind of answer or reaction.

The wheels will likely remain unchanged as placeholders until such a time as someone has some free time to change them.  Because of this, don't expect much.

Thanks !
