I also think that the M20 75mm Recoilless Rifle should be added to the Jeep with a small perk price to reflect its very late war usage.

The M20 75mm recoilless rifle was not mounted on jeeps during WW2.

D'oh!  My Wikipedia skills are weak.

lol  How ironically insightful of you.

Irony is when the pot really is calling the kettle black.

While no jeeps during WW2 were equipped with a recoilless rifle, there were some jeeps mounted with bazookas. 

This jeep belonged to the 60th IR of the 9th ID as part of the Intelligence and Reconnaissance (I&R) Platoon.




From what I've been able to find, this configuration wasn't intended for engaging tanks since the jeep would have to get within the effective range of the bazooka (150 yards or closer) but more of a shoot and scoot weapon intended to engage positions like machine gun nests and pill boxes.

Or maybe this jeep with a rocket launcher.


Or this one with a 37mm cannon.

That jeep with a  37mm and mg would be a great m3 troop carrier killer.

Would be fun to get a group of them together and play 'Rat Patrol' and raid a V base or an airfield.

finally got my sdk kill today so I'm all for it being rare again

I'm surprised you found even one! There is no legitimate reason to use one. They aren't any harder to kill than an M3. In fact, the M3 may have an advantage, though not by much. There is no perk advantage to the Sd.Kfz, it's slower, and the rockets are much more difficult to aim with than the M4. Its machine guns are all but useless. And why would anyone want to be slower than an M3 while carrying troops?

though i would like a pak40 on it still lol

I think the 75mm L24 was used more often, but I'm not really up on the German halftracks. It would make more sense anyway since what we have is the 251/1 (I think) and the L24 would be a /9 where the Pak 40 would be a /20-ish version.
