Nashorn tank destroyer

Really curious why you think these need to be perked. If it can't take a hit why would anyone want to spend perks on these.

I'm all for them and as I already mentioned the self-propelled guns (SPG) would be great for sacking towns at distance. Not akin to true artillery as their effective range would be about the distance from the usual spawn point.  We have artillery from the sea, why not from vehicles? The rockets on the M4 are about as close as that comes and are kinda pathetic. Pathetic because it takes away any ability to defend yourself from aircraft. SPG's I don't believe were accurate enough to say pinpoint the ack on a base, not do I believe they would be hangar killers anymore than a cv's 8/5"ers (probably quite less.)

Because its gun would kill anything in the game.

so... so basically the Nashorn has the same main gun as the King Tiger but with no turret, has armor less than the Sherman M4, and an open top to make for an easy kill for Ki-43 Oscar.  Did the Nashorn even have an MG for anti-infantry/anti-airacraft use???

 

I think HTC could put their resources to better use introducing the StG III, Su-100, SdKfz 251/9, Puma, Valentine, and a host of other AFV's.

Yes, but the mg wasn't fixed to the vehicle.

And it was a highly successful TD. Heavy firepower, good visibility and gun traverse, good mobility. It was fantastic out on the Russian steeps.

So no, you couldn't slug things out with a Tiger. Or even an M8. But who cares when you don't have to? Much better to finish things with a single round from hiding than to trade fire.

And two of those you listed are a ways below the Nashorn on any list you could make. You don't want it, but its not like it's undeserving.

Hehehe, to many people from Calif. moved up there. Alaska is going the same way, and they are starting to infiltrate Texas.

dammit! I wanted to live up there! Guess virgina will suffice

Nashorn +1 then Elephant tank of course the 200mm of frontal armor it would be more heavily armored than the KT lol and maybe add the IS or some other Russian heavy or TD like the SU100 or SU122 or SU85 just a guess
