Re: North Korea errors report
After recieving further information in a PM and further investigation of the photo Marcello on tanknet I belive what I am going to do is removed that unit from the game. Any evidence that su-100's existed in the NK army during the Korean war are far outweighed by the information that suggests otherwise.
Although the PM message writer points out the barrel length I have seen photos of su-85m from nearly the same angle that shows a barrel length similar but given that the condition of the photo is poor to begin with how long the barrel looks from that angle depends far more on the FL of the lens the photographer was using than anything else and I've lightened up the photo as well and DO NOT see "a box in the right hand side of the glacis plate" "That would indicate a 50s rebuild" and I've squeezed all the resolution and sharpeness out of that photo that is possible.
The bottom line is unit 461 in the NK OOB has been removed until definative proof is presented
