Its very simple:
A cheap, durable, medium tank counter doesn't need it.
Its T3 vehicle that isn't really supposed to fight its own counters.

Do people actually use hulldown on a turretless tank?
I haven't seen hulldown in years, and literally never seen someone use it with a stug.

This is where the problem is, Firefly kills Panther which cost more easily. And teching for it is much harder than it is for British player. I would reduce the accuracy of 60 range TD's from max range by 50%. So to reliably hit a tank they would need to close to that 40-50 range where every tank can hit.
This doesn't mean they would close to that distance, but it wouldn't make them so damn easy to use with their superior range and every hit dealing so much damage which for axis is so much harder to repair compared to allies.
Maybe it's 'cause the Axis players aren't a bunch of forum crybabies, and they keep their cool and fight the uphill battle, unlike some of their "allied" counterparts.

What the Stug needs is a pop cap revert back to 8. Su76 never got a pop increase. As well, fix the useless TWP.

SU-76 also never got 160 dmg and ability to get shot 3 times by AT gun and not die.
Better vehicles cost more pop cap.

And su has 200+ pen, 60 range, not one but two abilities that work much better than stug twp, slightly faster rotation. So typical of you Katitof to be so biased.

For 60 range AT, OST has the PaK 40 already.

Why is the stug AT only? It has the same gun as pz IV and should be able to deal the same anti infantry damage.
I'd love to see the stug as it is supposed to be. As a handicapped tank without the moving turret for cheaper cost. I mean its 90 fuel vs 120 fuel to get the same AT capability but it has 0 anti infantry efficiency.
Sure this would make it that ostwind would almost never see use, but it never does anyways as it is completely useless because for 20 fuel more you can get Pz4 which deals more dps and can actually fight enemy tanks.
I could extend this into the conversation about why can't all tanks switch between AT and HE ammo (with the exception of firefly) but that would open a whole new can of butthurt so instead I just would love to hear some arguments as to why stugs gun can't have the same anti infantry capability as the Pz IV
