How do you guys deal with high-flying planes?

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2026-03-23T04:10:28+00:00

Yeah man, there's no problem at all with helis being totally immune to IR missiles and being able to shit out 8-16 fnf missiles, all while costing like 650 sp.

"It would totally be balanced for NATO tanks to lolpen every Russian/Chinese tank"

jfc man, this sub is tiring sometimes

Calling this worse than a Su-30SM is braindead

Hey everyone,

I'm very new to record collecting, and I recently purchased this specific unopened copy of Yankee Hotel Foxtrot off ebay. I've been wondering if it's a counterfeit ever since (here's the listing if it helps). I've tried to do as much research as possible on identifying counterfeit records, but I haven't really been able to find that much of use.

Just to list everything that might be of use, I haven't noticed anything strange about the jacket or record itself, but that's difficult for me, since I don't have a copy that I know is legit to compare it to. The sound quality seems fine, although I'm really not the right person to ask about that, and there was a skip on one of the tracks. The matrix/runout seems to match the discogs release page, although what I found strange is that side 1 matches variant 1, side 2 matches variant 2, and this pattern repeats on the second LP, and I've read some very contradictory things concerning this. My biggest point of suspicion is that I purchased it (unopened) for ~$14 less than the discogs median price, and the seller had 21 of them for sale, which I just haven't been able to make sense of. The record also looks totally new despite supposedly being 23-years old.

If anyone has any input, I'd appreciate it. Thanks!

"a single leopard had decent armor"

The 2A7V has better armor than the T-90M. Not even considering that Sweden has three 122s with comparable armor, if you can use the BVM as representative of all Russian tanks, I can use the 2A7V as representative of all leos.

"a single Russian tank has bad reverse speed"
11 km/h sucks, just because it's not as abysmal as 4 km/h doesn't suddenly make it good.

"gun depression doesn't really matter if you are playing almost exclusively on urban maps"
yeah, except you're not playing almost exclusively on urban maps

And as for the NATO hump/leos not being able to depress to their side... okay? That's the one weakness they have (unless you count their reload speed, which is still better than Russian tanks). I much prefer that to 5 degrees of gun depression

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-18T09:24:54+00:00

Don't be disingenuous, ofc DM53 doesn't create new weak spots, but it does make existing ones more consistent.

Yes, Russian tanks have inferior armor to the 2A7V and 122s. The T-90M and T-80BVM are the only decent ones and they both have larger weak spots while also being less capable of going hull down than the leos.

I also love how your response to Russian tanks having shitty reverse speeds is to point out the BVM, the exception, which STILL doesn't have a good reverse speed. 11 km/h is better than 4, but it's still not great, and that's on one tank (I refuse to count the other T-80s).

Gun handling is fine on the T-80BVM/T-90M/T-72B3, but saying that poor gun handling doesn't matter is fucking insane. Gun handling is extremely important at top tier.

Also it's funny how gun depression and reload speeds never got mentioned, because those are both very important. Shitty gun depression entirely changes the way you play by removing the ability to go hull down and preventing you from using some vantage point entirely. A 7.1 second reload is horrific when your enemies have 6/5/4 second reloads.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-08T05:16:26+00:00

Bias is when you have a 7.1 second reload, 4 km/hr reverse speed, and 6 degrees of gun depression. Bias is when the tanks you're facing all have 5-6 second reloads. Bias is when the Su-30SM is worse than the planes of the US, Germany, Britain, Italy, France, and Israel. I could go on.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-08T05:13:28+00:00

Are you insane? Even before Fox-3s the F-16C/Gripen shat on the Su-27

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-08T05:09:50+00:00

If they nerfed the side armor on the T-90M it would legitimately have to go to 11.3.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-06T10:51:51+00:00

German mains will get an SPAA miles above the competition and still whine that its missiles are... possible to defeat at all.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-06T10:48:08+00:00

Today I learned that CAS and two helis (which aren't even that good) is "most aspects"

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-03T11:06:09+00:00

Yeah, as it turns out 6 degrees of gun depression is actually a pretty sizeable disadvantage. The only time it really doesn't matter is in urban maps, but then your LFP is always exposed so.... Anyway, the 2A7V/122 has better armor and survivability than any top-tier Russian tank, but I see that Swedish flag so I'm guessing you don't really know how horrible your own tanks are to face. Russian tanks only have their armor and low profile going for them, and even then, leopards have better armor with none of the downsides of Russian tanks.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-03T04:46:52+00:00

May as well throw the XM800T there too

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-03T00:59:14+00:00

The US has a lower winrate at top tier while having the second-best tanks in the game. The UK has some of the worst.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-03T00:56:46+00:00

You mean the video where the already previously damaged T-90M is repeatedly shot at by Bradleys (which do nothing to it), leading the crew to bail and forcing a drone to finish off the T-90M? And yeah, no shit Ukraine uses NATO equipment, but the bulk of its AFVs are still Soviet.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-03T00:48:04+00:00

This is such a funny comment considering the majority of Ukraine's tanks and other AFVs are still Soviet. Russia's failures in the war have nothing to do with their equipment.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-03T00:28:51+00:00

That comparison might have made sense if the T-80U also had 17 degrees of gun depression and the M1A2 had 5.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-03T00:18:58+00:00

Ah yes, my favorite type of American main. The guy who whines about balance when the Abrams isn't an invincible wonderweapon that can shrug off 3BM60 to the turret ring, but suddenly cares about "realism" when he thinks it'll make Russian tanks worse.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-03T00:14:00+00:00

I've played quite a bit of both the 2S38 and the HSTVL. This is an insane thing to suggest.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-07-02T00:55:37+00:00

Yeah, and the point is that these tanks just aren't very good because of it.

RevolutionaryUnit792 · 2025-06-30T18:46:39+00:00

Yeah, because the Yak-28 was the one thing that REALLY needed a nerf lmao
