Not sure if this is the proper place to put this, but in Amateur Night Combat events with a Chaser, the vehicle is listed as having B armor, but if you win it, it suddenly has C armor.

Just seems odd. Not sure if it's already been addressed.

Amateur Night Combats don't normally give you the car advertised. It's common to see vehicles with inconsistent armor values, different armor grades, damaged engines, weapons, and chassis. Every ANC I've done I never spawned in a vehicle with the chosen armor values, and on occasion, with engines that smoked and guns that occasionally jammed. I don't think this a bug or anything, I believe this is intentional to keep things interesting. You are fighting in a controlled environment for a vehicle with little risk after all.

Nor do they give you the car you win with, which I noticed the first time I won.  In that ANC, the winning car barely got hit, but the car I got was all shot up.  Life in DW, I guess...

Well at least there's less armor to strip off to convert it to B grade

Amateur night combats were initially designed to give scavengers access to a First vehicle. They were opened to regular players because they are fun. In scav a starting player can't fix B armour so the prize having C is sensible. The cars are intentionally damaged in various ways to reflect the scavenger ethos.
