A tank shouldnt be up so far that it can't be reached if it wants to be repaired? You don't move outside your logistic line if you want to depend on said logistic line. Look up Patton's push across southern France and the fuel logistic problems.

I'm guessing air lifted repair 'crates' are too easy for a good pilot to spam into hot zones? But what happens on maps like Muttrah when the Americans(with no supply trucks) APC gets disabled?

That's an interesting question... though they did say Ammo/Repair stations (similar to the cp of now) will spawn at the first capped flag on carrier assault maps. And the repair/ammo station depicted on the front page has a logistics truck in it, so maybe those will be spawning now, too.

But on Muttrah the US spawn on the carrier, so how is it possible for a logistics truck to drive across the water? Or am i missing something?

Rhino's confirmed it, after I explained it so well.

Or, Rhino was epically ninjad by 10 minutes, but I'm guessing that even if he was he wouldn't admit it hehe

Positioned mostly at main bases, provide vehicle ammunition and repairs. On carrier maps they will appear at forward control points once captured.

cap a flag.. stuff spawns.

To those people worrying about if they're in a tank and get hurt... what are they supposed to do.. wait for a Logistics Truck? Yes. Pull back.. get to flat ground, because those Logistics truck probably are going to flip like crazy, and wait. You screwed up. Wait for the opportunity to get back into the fight.

lol

but ye that is correct, stated many times in this topic that the vehicle depos spawn (with in most cases a spawn delay) on the "beach" of amphibious assault maps, which if you have also noticed that in the pic on the first post there is a logistics truck spawned inside the camo netting tent which is where you will also find the logistics truck

Wait...so what's going to happen to the current trucks with 8 seats in-game at the moment?
