It's a lot of trouble, just for a chance that the vehicle will actually be disabled.
In a word...
No.
Who says the dev's wouldn't take the time to do that?
They've taken the time to do everything else? Why not perfect it? Why not make the game 100% pure AWESOME.
In a nutshell, the word i'm looking for... oh...

I do not want to spend 8 hours testing each vehicle.

Maybe you need another moderator to keep those damn testers under control. I'll keep 'em in line.

yea this would be a nice addition to insurgent maps and put these out in front to prevent bomb cars from entering.

Oh I Do agree. But as we all know. There not enough players in a server to defend a base. Even full 64 slot servers. This is a limit of the BF2 servers being lock at 64 players. Not the fault of the DEV's. Also, In a pub server. Every players wants to go out to the front lines. It's just the nature of the players. Again, not a bad thing.
I My self think it's a great idea if used only on Insurgents maps. As it's main task is to stop Civvy and bomb cars. Not full on Hummers and the likes.
