I thought so as well. It just annoys me that something so apparent is just overlooked. Especially when said thing is a skin that I had to unlock and have been using on my planes since then.
Hopefully, Dice can hotfix this.

If you can list the names of skins and affected vehicles I'll share with the team to get back to me on.

u/PartWelsh Can you shed some light on why are tankers and pilots locked to female?

That’s just how they were implemented for the launch of the game. I’ve asked the team about what we might do with the role. My personal preference (Edit: Whilst we get to a better solution) would be to just remove it but as far as I understand it’s got some technical dependencies that make it not quite as simple as that.

To develop a system that lets you customise it (including appropriate menu configurations and UX considerations) is as complicated to implement as removing them altogether and just allowing last active class to use them.

It’s not an unknown sentiment. We are looking at it.

Thanks. Last active class would do. Male/female selection toggle would do. Just something would be better than the current state.

Do you mind if I screenshot this into a post so that more people can be updated on the issue?

If I wasn’t, I wouldn’t post it. Thanks for helping spread the message.
