US M5 when upgraded has the soviet designation (ZSU M17 MGMC)

If corrected should be M16 (American designation)

For real though Relic, I think yous need totally different testers.

M5 is wrong too, as I explained in another thread:

The M5 and M17 Half-Track was an export model for the Soviet Union and other countries, the United States used the M3 and M16 Half-track as well as others based on the M3. That said, it makes no sense that Relic added the M5 Half-Track to USF, since we never used that version in war.

I'm assuming the real reason USF got an M5 was because Relic couldn't be bothered to model the M45 on the newer M3 model. Not like it matters much anyway because the M5 model doesn't look like an M5 anyway, and is in-fact just the M3 model from CoH1, renamed.

I noticed that, Since there was the M3 and the M3A1 I believe? (smaller version)
Not that good with American half track designations

Probably a bit of both since they'd have to model the M45, and the soviet model was there to use.

I noticed this in a team game vs USF and Soviet and was partially confused.

Why didn't they just add M5ish armor to the M3, so it become useful and can be added to this commander with M16 upgrade?

Because much easier to take soviet M5, which already have it, than code M3 to have AA package.
