Does it have a 4s auto-loader, with APHE and can it bounce a 120mm APDS round at point blank range?

Even worse, it HAS a auto loader, a main cannon like bmp1 and an auto cannon like the bmp 2 with ATGMs, which can bounce 120mm apfsds

Ob’yekt 906 deserves the Maus treatment
Add actually used and better tanks like the BMP-3

Great, now make this thing premium or something not in the way.

"Despite it not being ordered into production, tankers in War Thunder may look forward to the highly interesting Object 685 coming to the game as part of the upcoming update 1.91!"

I am glad to say none of those are happening, this will be a normal tech tree version after the obj 906.

Imagine adding light tanks to Germany or Britain instead of a nation with tons of them already)))

Germany has tons of vehicles, UK is getting their Heli tree this patch

Germany already got two light tanks at 8.3 and 8.7, USSR has them both at 8.0, while UK has one, dosen't seem to have that much disparity. This thing won't be below 9.0. I don't see a problem here

Russia has a PT-76B at 5.3 (with HEAT-FS and a stabiliser, so it has good retainability), a few light-TDs, then a BMP-1P at 7.3 with point and click missiles lower than any other nation, the BMP-2 with autocannon and missiles, and a Ob’yekt 906 prototype, which can kill Abrams frontally even (although with difficulty) —
Germany has an 8.3 and 8.7 light tank, with none since Rank II, except a premium.
UK has one 8.3 light tank, with none sine Rank I.

And as I mentioned, even if adding new USSR lights, why this thing? Who tf ever heard of this? I never heard of this, and I think Soviet Cold War tanks are the most interesting faction and era to learn about with armoured vehicle. Why are we getting this instead of a BMP-3, or a BMP-2M, or literally any of the BMP-1s?

Literally The BMP 3s are the next addition, I haven't even heard of the multiple vehicles (mass produced or not) before I started playing WT, and these two sit at the end of the light tree line, making it optional to people who research it. Again its a prototype in the normal tree, not a new thing.

Edit: If it was made, i don't see a reason of not adding it ingame

[The_Illuminati_Confirmed]

Oh and if they add BMP-3 i'd expect 4S24 ERA package as a modification. https://i.pinimg.com/originals/a4/78/2e/a4782e110fa326487641f60e6d8ffac8.jpg and if we're really f*cking lucky ARENA hard-kill APS https://i.pinimg.com/originals/89/b2/5d/89b25d44f6d61debcd4ec70992347b7a.jpg

I don’t have a problem with it in game, or even prototypes in the main tree. But they should only be in the main tree, when there is not much else to add (example: most of Japan’s protos). This is different — Russia does not not only need it, but is lacking in room for the shear number of light vehicles in this range.

What am I talking about? We have like easily 10-20% of the BMP-1s represented in game, 2 (as one for some reason) of many many variants. Now there is the BMP-2 series, with multiple variants (also 2 of many represented). These Ob’yekts are not only unnecessary, but in the way. Because next there is the BMP-3 series. You got an entire line of BMPs, I would even argue Russia is already going to have the best light tank/APC line just from them alone.

Still think we need the Ob’yekts?

Oh boy the BMPs are half the story, literally.
Because we don’t have the BMD series — with BMD-1 variants, BMD-2 variants, BMD-3 variants, and I think there is even a BMD-4 if you go far enough modern-wise. Literally an entire new line of tanks parallel to the BMPs, with probably over a dozen in total counting all variants or so (I have to look up the specifics).

Literally we might have to split the Russia light vehicle line in two, because there are so many of these tanks.

Yep Let's Do it, more objects for the WIN!!

On another note: Russia dosent need more vehicles at this point, We have Italy, Japan, France to care about more
