When people ask for a familiar tank like the T-72, they may worry the game will use a less familiar prototype designation like Object 172M instead. Would showing both names make it clearer which vehicle is being represented?
Would showing both tank names clear this up?

A prototype label can help distinguish a development version from a production tank. But that difference may not be obvious to someone who just recognizes the familiar name. Showing the common name first and the prototype designation alongside it could make the vehicle easier to identify without losing the technical detail.

Using an unfamiliar designation can feel like avoiding the name people actually asked for. Still, a familiar name alone doesn't show whether the vehicle's in-game details are meant to match a real production model. A short note saying whether it's a production tank, prototype, or modified version would make the choice easier to understand.
