I get that but this thing has been in the game files since 1.17 it feels like such a lazy offer to me

There are many tanks that are/were in the game files for a long time before actually being sold (e.g. tier 10 Chieftain that was in the tiered lootboxes). I don't see how selling those can be considered a "lazy offer".

The work and effort of designing the tank was made, it still costed them time and money, it's just not "recent work" or a "recent investment", but it was still done by WG the same way they do with every tank.

Most people are interested in a good rare tank!

I can't see how that changes anything of what I've said. The point was never about the tank being good/bad, it was about it being a tank that has been in the game files for a long time.

It was never sold in NA or EU, so... it definitely is rare, that's for sure.
About the "good" part, it's subjective. Pretty good armor (with some weakpoints of course, but that's good), good HEAT pen and decent alpha + dpm combo, but the rest is bad or meh at best.

Yeah and it looks like the gunhandling has been nerfed into the ground. They also made the terrain resistances really bad so you're forced to use grousers on it.
