Armor strength disparity on Hummel vs. Rhino?

Armor strength disparity on Hummel vs. Rhino?
Hey all, quick question.

I notice that in East Front (not sure about WF) the german SPA "Hummel" has an armor rating of "4" whilst the 88mm AT tank destroyer "Rhino" has an armor rating of three...even though both vehicles use the exact same chassis (Pz III/IV). This strikes me as very odd, and "armored car strength" armor seems very weak for such a vehicle.

Are there any plans to upgrade the armor of the Rhino to "four" in the next update?

Since the Rhino is occasionally visible to the enemy (used for direct fire), its armor would actually be slightly stronger than the Hummel, as I would think it would be supplemented with sandbags and the like.

Comments?
Thus, what is of supreme importance in war is to attack the enemy's strategy.
