Infa-Red night vision targeting scope on the Panther VG (Late) is it modelled?


Recommended Posts

Does the latest model of the Panther have this infa-red night vision targeter moddeled? Does the VG Late have higher accuracy rates than the rest...? If not moddeled in CM:BO will it be modelled in CM:B2B...Not a Gripe Just a Question (Sources: PANTHER TANK, German Tank Encyclopedia, German Secret Weapons of World War II)

It's not modelled in CMBO and most likely will not be modelled in CMBB either. It was just too rare to include. Apparently the combo of infrared seachlight-equipped half-tracks and infrared-sighted Panthers had a couple of engagements (can't remember which front - possibly Western), but I don't know if these were really confirmed or not.

For those people who are pointing out that the IS-3 and SturmTiger are on the list to be included, but saw little to no engagment time in WWII... They are listed for inclusion because the textures are already done for them, but there is a possibility that they may not make it in.

From what I understand the earlier versions of these nightfighting Panthers only had infrared gear for the commander which is quite limiting but better than nothing. Later ones had extras for the gunner at the very least.

Heard about even infantry weapons like an MP-44 having these rather bulky attachments.
