I assume some of you know about this and maybe some don't.

Some players are able to get cheap recon in order to accurately drop offmaps behind enemy lines.

Is this an intended feature of smoke drops or is it a bug?

If this is a feature, then perhaps the cost of the smoke drop should be increased to recon levels.

T34/76 is NOT a joke on my hands; Maybe on your hands you make it suck shit? but on me, No. I can kill a stug with a little micro, go toe to toe with a Panzer 4. Is it a joke? LOL T34/85 is apparently a very good tank. But no one says it "one hit wipe" or elefant penetration; up to a point i think this little medium tank just have too much health and too much firepower with that fuel cost.

80 ammo for just 0,5 sec reaction time to drop a bomb ?

You mean stuff like stuka smoke bombs? Yes it is intended.

"Available aircraft will make a reconnaissance pass on the targeted location to reveal enemy forces and drop smoke at the target area."

I think 125-150 muni to drop smoke and have 1/2 second of sight to drop an offmap from a teammate that you're communicating and coordinating with should make Vaz happy

*Spams the bomb drop button and still fails to get the visibility window on that pesky B-4/ML-20*

I remember when SOV AA insta downed normal recon planes, so this was your only hope of getting sight to take out their howitzers. Missed many times even knowing where the place was.

If it's supposed to give sight, then make it a proper sight.

However, I do remember some fuss a while back that resulted in the termination of sight from smoke dropping planes. All of them, not just the axis.
