With Germany having the 2nd largest tank tech tree in War Thunder, you would be forgiven for thinking their are few German vehicles to add. But this is not the case and indeed their are many major variants and even whole vehicle models that still need adding.
In this video I will be looking at some of these vehicles and discussing how and why they should be added to War Thunder, as well as talking a little bit about the real life history of them.
Quick note, I have seen references to the VK 30.02 (D) actually being the VK 30.01 (D), I've gone with the VK 30.02 (D) designation as that is the most commonly used designation I can find and the one used by my book sources, but leaving this note just in case.

VK 30.02 (D)/VK 30.01 (D): 00:21
Flammwagen auf Panzerkampfwagen B-2(f): 07:28
