They didn't make many FlakPanzer's?  Stop reading wiki, it's always wrong.


and YOUR authority is...........??? I NEVER quoted Wiik or whatever, but I get a kick out you kids that look at historical facts and then say they are incorrect.  Sorta like the idiots that say the holocost didn't happen.

The WW and Oswind should be perked for the same reason the 262 is, they just didn't make many of them.

Most of the German mobile AA was truck mounted and suseptable to destruction from the air by GUN fire, both the 37mm and 20mm guns were truck mounted and later halftrack mounted, the WW and OW were tried and found to be too expensive for the results.

I think there is a bit more to perking 262s than based on their number.

Wirbles and Ostis, take out their turrets.  Wirbles do seem to sometimes take an inordinate amount of hull damage to kill, however.  Once the turret is gone, they're hard to finish off.

The ME 262 is not perked because of rarity and by the way, the ME 262 wasn't a rare aircraft at all, with 1400 being built over all.

Perks are based on whether or not a particular aircraft will unbalance the game play if it wasn't perked.

The 262s perk is based on performance NOT availability.

Word, I think I need to get back into the Osti for a while.  Getting too used to the WW ballistics.

How many saw action?? You count all those that were in production at the close of the war?? AND if it so unblances game play WHY is it even in the MA and not just held for senario's (which IMO is where it belongs)

Even 1400 compared to the 109 or 190 numbers is small indeed.
