If I am wrong, I would like to see your source.

Oleg has said the SOW engine has been designed for tank/ship/car/etc. BUT he did not say who would be doing the development. In SOW's initial release I'm sure we could see us having access to AAA guns like the 88, and if its as detailed as other equipment, you should be able to lower the barrel and use it on whatever you wish.

A full combined arms sim is something we will see after most of the air theaters are completed. I'm sure Oleg will want to do a major part of this development also, as he is doing in the air theaters. With 3 parties having access to parts of the development he deems necessary, or profitable.

This of course won't happen unless the first installments of SOW are successfull.
