Suggestion: Optional Gun Shield for Humvee Gunners

Hello Battlefield Team,

I would like to suggest a gameplay improvement regarding the Humvee gunner.

Currently the exposed gunner is extremely vulnerable to small arms fire.

In real life many Humvees use partial gun shields.

Suggestion:

Add optional armor plates protecting the gunner’s torso with a narrow firing gap.

Balance idea:

• Not default – unlock via vehicle XP

• Head still vulnerable to accurate shots

• Rockets and heavy weapons still effective

This would add realism and vehicle progression without making the vehicle overpowered.

Thanks!

    I’ve stopped being the gunner nowadays, as it currently stands, it’s an extremely fragile position. And I’ve come to relish the incoming jeeps, their own gunners make for very easy kills. So yeah, I think it’s a great idea. 

  • There's so many good ideas like this that can implemented for light vehicles. I for one suggest giving the light vehicles a smoke grenade launcher as an optional gun replacement as well.
