Thanks for the report. Slowdown capsules don't apply to cars/tanks/trains.

And why can I throw them? It would be nice if I could make a tank slower.

The same reason you can throw grenades at an empty place on the ground - there are no restrictions that say "you can't do that because it wouldn't effect anything".

Bilka pointed out that it's actually most likely because slowdown capsules are configured to not effect not-enemy things.

I understand, only I still miss the blue fog. Is the parameter known with which I can change the effect on a tank?

Set data.raw.projectile["slowdown-capsule"].action.force = "all". Currently it is set to enemy, so you can only slow down enemies, not yourself. You also have to set a vehicle speed modifier on the slowdown sticker:
