I already have suspension keybinds since i play the 103 a lot.

damn this picture is really old. I remeber when bmd4 terorised 8.0 with the downtiers
I’m getting to the CV90s soon. I hope those will satiate my hunger for light tanks
I also love all the Swedish light tanks =D What BR are you aiming for? There is one or two of the Swede ones that are worth passing to get the next higher/better ones. I don’t think any of them are bad, just a bit “too many” of them xD
This is my 10.3 GRB lineup for Sweden:
(Ignore the plane xD I’m working on it)
9040C AMAZING
9040 BILL AWESOME, I love overhead rockets.
And both with prox fused shells, awesome.
Lvkv 9040C AWESOME too. Plays more like a light tank than a SPAA, but I love that. Also has 5 crew so more survivable, sometimes.
When I started this game I was hoping to play 8.7 sweden as I heard it was strong and I like the battle rating range of 8.7 where you don’t really see a lot of cas and the downtiers are nice. I had a lot of fun with the ikv91 105 back it was 8.7 and I was grinding the t55m which I heard was the stronger tank of the lineup and the bR. But to my amazing luck they moved the entire 8.7 sweden up to 9.0 a WEEK before I got the t55m. Now am planning to grind to 11.7 to get the cv90120. And then I will probably grind ussr to grind the t64 series which are really cool looking
why do you have a rserve plane and the first heli in your lineup :o

Eh, while that one is good, imo, the 10.3 range is going to be more fun than going max BR with Sweden. Def grind up, but 10.3 is a very very nice range imo. Because it is right at the cuttoff where you will not get up into 11.7 matches.
Working on it xD I do that so I do not put any tanks in those slots and mess up my crew points. (I already have some air points in those, so I dont put a tank in and grind the wrong crew points)
EDIT: OH I did just grind out the right heli for that lineup:
Sprut has a double whammy of having bad depression on top of having a higher profile than T series so its even worse, and the armor is paper thin. The one at 9.3 is a lot better than the one at 10.0 for what it faces.
It basically plays like a stryker MGS but with a manned turret so its a whole let less survivable.

If i had the money I would have a lineup of cv90120,9040c,9040 aa and 9040 bill. I would also would take the 105 to 10.7
It has hydro suspension though!

Meh, it has literally the same rounds as the T-80 BVM. If you have an issue getting kills in the 2S25M, then you are not playing it like a light tank 😉 There are no light tanks that survive like a MBT lol.
ALSO, the 2S25 doesn’t have thermals, for gunner OR commander. The 2S25M has superb thermals for both. Much better for GRB.

2S25M has Gen 3 therms for both gun and cmd:

Holy crap it does, doesn’t seem like you can incline it to get more depression? Wish I knew this when spading them.
I never had problems killing things, it just was not survivable at all.

Sadly it does not 😭 Not like how you can tilt with the BMD-4/BMD-4M/BMP-3’s I SO WISH IT DID.
I cannot argue with that at all 😂 Yeah, having so many crew members in the turret, AND high in the turret makes it almost an instant death every time. Buuuuut, since it has such good optics (high zoom and therms) I try to stay waaaaaaay back. BUT if/when I do push forward, I typically only use the missiles and fire asap to try and disable/kill them before they have a chance to nuke me lul. Even thought the darts are superb, just doesn’t compare to a tandem missile with 850mm pen =D

OH and just in case you wanted to browse, the old wiki still has a list of tonks with hydro suspension (MIGHT be one or two things out of date, like the BMD-4M etc, hasn’t been updated since WIki 3.0 came out.)

The 2S6 gets SO low to the ground, looks funny, love that one.
And the Pancake tank, Obj 775 ZOMG so silly how low it goes.
EDIT: The new wiki does have a page that lists the tonks with "controlled suspension: Controlled suspension | Features | War Thunder Wiki

question ? What does the 2s supposed to mean? T means mbt obj is mostly experimental and zsu is spaa but 2s just seems random. 2s1 is artilerry 2s6 is spaa 2s38 is spaa 2s25 is light tank

I have no idea! 😂 If anyone else knows and can comment, I would like to know too 👍
Ya tested it, looks funny. Wish i knew this as well when I was playing it like a baby BMPT trying to finish spading it in matches there was no CAS lol.

Probably as fire support
Looks like there isn’t really a consistent/real answer lul
