A future DD?

[Carfalgrof]

Has anything been said about possibly having a future DD based on variants. Like the research for planes to make them carrier capable, or turning old tank hulls into anit-air/anti-tank/mobile artillery. It certainly something I'd really to hear about as I begin to plan how my army shall look.

I thought variants are simply base models modified with exp to increase their firepower, armor, engine power, reliability etc. I may be wrong though.

The button in the right upper corner in the Air tech tree, unlocks the carrier variant. But that will be its own airframe and you need to build them.

turning old tank hulls into anit-air/anti-tank/mobile artillery

That will not be part of the game at launch. You unlocks the subvariant via research and then have to build them. So old Pz. III in your stockpile can not be converted. I think they will implemend it with a patch or DLC later.
