Summarize your bug I called in a Sturmtiger in Rush mode and none came. There was no spawn-in symbol anywhere. I did not run out of time either, as I died and went to the spawn screen shortly after calling it. None of my teammates got it either. I'd test this out for the Crocodile as well, although I remember seeing the enemy team having one.
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Play a game of Rush. Call in a Sturmtiger as a German.
What happens when the bug occurs? The Sturmtiger will not appear.
What should be happening instead? The Sturmtiger should appear.

Were you offense or defense and what sector where you in?

I'm curious if it gave you the option to call one in but you aren't allowed to get it. Did you still get points for calling it in?

"We also adjusted the amount of tanks in Rush. We do believe that vehicles have a place in this gamemode, but with only 32 players and a more narrow playground we need to be more careful since they can heavily change balance of a sector. For that reason we reduced the overall amount of tanks. Narvik only supports tanks in the first sector, Twisted Steel offers a tank to the attacking team in the early sectors and then gives a tank to the defenders in the last sector. Devastation doesn’t support tank gameplay."

It spent all 20K squad requisition points when I called it in. I was on Defense on Narvik. I got the 50 points for calling in the squad reinforcements @EA_Blueberry 

From the quoted text, I think the tanks in question refer specifically to the 6 regular tanks, and not the squad requisition tanks.

@EA_Blueberry 

I'd like to add that the Sturmtiger appears after calling for it via squad requisition points in Rush mode on Twisted Steel. And, I've rechecked to see if the Sturmtiger appears in Narvik, and again it failed to appear (as German defenders).

Also, on Twisted Steel, attackers get another tank once the attackers advance to the third sector. I'm unsure if this is by mistake, or if they made Twisted Steel as an exception to the rule because the map is relatively larger in size.

Narvik only supports tanks in the first sector

Did you try calling it in after the first sector? These changes apply to all tanks.

Twisted Steel offers a tank to the attacking team in the early sectors and then gives a tank to the defenders in the last sector. Devastation doesn’t support tank gameplay.

@EA_Blueberry Yeah it was always after the first sector. I'll try and get 20K points as defender in the first sector, but it's going to be a challenge.

On Narvik, as Attackers (British), I called in a Crocodile tank on the last sector and it appeared. @EA_Blueberry
