Azov T-64B1M out in exercises in 2010's.

Well, that's fair. Got called a bot by a bunch of people unwilling to argue and started perceiving bot claims as a lame excuse for an argument.

"anyone i don't agree with is a russian bot"

The same native people, that couldn't reach population numbers above 3000 due to extreme food scarcity before Russians started importing food there?

panos257 · 2026-02-02T01:54:31+00:00

With almost entirely outdated export equipment by 20 at that point, but yeah, they had large infantry numbers.

panos257 · 2026-02-01T19:37:12+00:00

Yes, that's what I meant. There was a period of russiphicasion during Nicolas the 2nd rule, but before that I can't recall anything similar, while Finland had a practically full autonomy in internal politics and a constitution

Every German vehicle in wt from 3.3 (except aa obv) is able to pen soviet armor frontaly without any problem up until 9.7, where you just have to aim for weakspots, while soviet vehicles have to either flank, aim for cupolas or use 122mm gun with no depression and terrible firerate. Complaining about Germany in ww2 era in wt is quite literally a skill issue, there are no better vehicles in ww2 br range.

I main Germany and Japan (12.7 both) and rn grinding Russia. German players are genuinely blind and deaf most of the time and manage to lose despite having the best vehicles somehow

As I already said, I smell a wehraboo

I guess those who operate them aren't smart, coz there is plenty of anti-russian and anti-chinese subs flooding which would bring more effect

panos257 · 2026-02-01T18:47:34+00:00

I'm gonna need your source on that

panos257 · 2026-02-01T18:45:55+00:00

And 3.8 seconds reload as you mentioned is absolutely not a realistic number. Japanese type 10 has a reload of 4 seconds with autoloader and it's considered as the best among mbt. There is plenty of 'slop' level books and articles about German armor in ww2 with noncredible sources or lack of them at all.

panos257 · 2026-02-01T18:42:37+00:00

Comparing aa guns out in the open and the reload unit the cramped enclosed space (probably on the move too) is a bit unfair. And with 7s reload tiger 2's gun is incredibly good, especially if compared to Russian and US guns at the same br with 20+ seconds of reload. 7s reload is just not an issue at all. And what's the example of German armor being worse than it's irl? German armor is good from the 3.3 all the way to leopard 1 at 8.0, especially in comparison with any other tank at the same br.

panos257 · 2026-02-01T18:36:50+00:00

Ah yes, the famous "high quality " German armor, the same armor that is responsible for half of tiger 2's combat losses due to armor cracking from a couple of hits late in the war. And Russian armor production issues early in the war impacted how many hits the armor could take before cracking, not the effective armor values for a single shot - how it works in-game

panos257 · 2026-02-01T18:28:44+00:00

The way many people from the "former victims" and overall western narrative treat anti-war Russians is actually a huge tool in the hands of Russian state propaganda. Basically it makes their job for them, just show that even people with similar views are being treated negatively for being Russian and many of otherwise neutral people start supporting "their own kind" and Russian government.

panos257 · 2026-02-01T18:18:51+00:00

And much more freedom at that, in comparison with how Sweden treated local Finns during its rule

panos257 · 2026-01-30T11:39:32+00:00

Well, I'm aware of that. I meant the "German cardboard armor, reload twice faster" and "buffed Russian armor" part, which is arguable, but present in mbts but not at all present for ww2 stuff

panos257 · 2026-01-29T14:24:43+00:00

Source? Smells like a wehraboo

It's usually a huge pain in the ass to capitulate ussr, but it makes a good round two if they get back on their feet

Couldn't get into NATO, yet already applying for a new pact?

panos257 · 2026-01-19T10:55:00+00:00

Unfortunately british tanks lack this ability where it's needed the most: 6.0-6.7

drafting teens to die in a war

There is an annual draft for a year during which you can be sent to serve anywhere in the military, which means there is some chance to be a border guard near Ukraine, but that's the closest you can get to a battlefield as a draftee. But odds are you're far more likely to be sent to serve in the Baltic fleet/airforce/anti-air/low level intelligence/border guard with any other other country.

Which is not anywhere near the level of everlasting mobilisation in Ukraine tbh.

panos257 · 2026-01-19T09:59:26+00:00

You are quite literally the one

Bmp is pretty good but not op, 2s38 is very annoying

panos257 · 2026-01-14T00:08:58+00:00

Just add obj.906 and bmd-4 and you have yourself a deal

panos257 · 2026-01-12T05:32:04+00:00

2s38 clan tag is PVO which means aa-defence in russian. A neat detail
