Pardon for being a nitpick, but what about the BRMs? AFAIK even the early BRM-1K mounts a Tall Mike (PSNR-5) GSR, and that one dates back to 1976.
Right now all the pre-1990 BRMs in the Russian OOB have a vision of 30.
Well I hate the nitpick back at you but if you look you'll see that the BRM-1K isn't modeled in the game and the other "pre-1990 BRMs" are "stock" BRM's and the regular BRM's didn't have the Tall Mike radar as only one was issued, so equipped, per recce coy


IF I add a BRM-1K it will have the correct vision

EDIT. I did a little digging and there seems to be some confusion ( what a surprise eh? ) One source say only the K model gets the radar and another says the K is the command vehicle and it's the The BMP M 1976(2) ( AKA BRM-1M ) is the one with the radar

Quote:

" The BMP M 1976(2) model has a small parabolic antenna on the roof. One of these vehicles is assigned, along with three BMP-1s, to the reconnaissance company of a motorized rifle or tank regiment, and three of them are assigned to the reconnaissance battalion of a motorized rifle or tank division.

The BRM-1K (BMP M1976/2) Armored Reconnaissance Command Vehicle, derived from BMP-1, has a 2-man turret and additional sensors. Two manportable SAM launchers are included. BMP-1 options fit BRM-1 and -1K. Passengers may dismount from BRM-1K and will dismount from BRM-1 to form an alternate reconnaissance post."

So, we appear to be "missing" the BRM-1M. We have the 2m and 3m versions in the game
