a light vehicle doesn't bleed, unlike infantry, so easily pays for itself if you do enough manpower damage with it and force off squads to gain additional map control.

But unlike the same Kubel, which has a useful 1st veteran ability. Scout has nothing of the kind. It is already useless for 5 minutes. I save the 3rd vet Scout in the 30th minute. That's it - he’s just a dead load, the infantry is no longer afraid of him (they stop being afraid after receiving panzerfaust). Maybe give him some kind of veteran ability or buy a radio set for a strike ability starting with T3 or T4 or something like that.

I think the unit is still useful later on, at least as a scout or AT troop transport.

I will concede however at a certain point it isn't worth the micro when you have 10 other units, or the Popcap that it occupies.

It would be fun to add some kind of veteran ability that rewards a player for actively using it after the early game and later into the match. It did just recieve a slight nerf in it's squadwipe potential last patch. Maybe it could get like a mark target ability at vet 2/3 similar to the WC51.

If you want troop transports to be useful later into the game, the dropoff system needs to be streamlined. Currently you have to tell it to drop off, then reselect it, then tell it to drive away somewhere safe. What it needs to the functionality to automatically drop off troops and then move away from the danger.
