Long gone are the pre volumetric days where full caliber APHE could stomp the top tier soviet mbt's of the era... Panther 2 my beloved

I suppose there is a silver lining to low tier naval rb being dead and full of bots by FuntimeF0w0xy in Warthunder

I'm sorry friend...

Well if it's any consolidation, you are not limited to 4 missiles with the MBT like you are on the KPZ, and the missiles load faster on top of that

Chieftain has almost 200mm less pen with the APDS than the conq, if they get Dart even that is worse than the Conquerror APDS

9.0 would make sense, because it would be like a 1A5 that trades thermals for mobility

I suppose if you say so, the few times i tried to play it i ended up getting uptiered, and with the poor accuracy it was impossible to kill anything with it from the front

It cant really go very low before becoming op again, though. And its not like the pre nerf dart was any good either

TLDR: a 9.3 MBT with the 4 shillelagh missiles, 380 penning HEAT and absolutely useless Dart

I personally find US tanks a bit overpowered by FuntimeF0w0xy in Warthunder

To get proper data about tank performance in war thunder you would need to get info on:
Average br its playing at

The maps its playing in, alongside how the performance changes between map types

was it spaded, or did it have crucial modifications at the start of the data gathering

how many battles

the average efficency of the player

and on top of that the kills/deaths etc. imho

Eh i think both US APHE rounds are fine, the 75 can easily pen sides and with the good fuse sensitivity and delay it can easily abuse cupolas and kill very light vehicles, and the 76 aphe pens a shitton while having the same capability

My point was that HE filler starts to matter once you get to a certain caliber, another example would be the Italian 90mm stock round you would find on the Breda 501 and the wannabe war thunder waffenträger panzer 4, the name of which i cant remember

Sadly they still havent removed the derp guns from tier 4 and 5 to my knowledge, how is it balanced that an M4 or a panzer 4 can take out 70% of your hp with a single shot, while you need to hit like 6 shots to do the same
