Lvkv 9040C has a search radar.
yes? which would be countered by the better pen and way better AA rounds of the S238?
Thats another topic. As of right now 90% of the players wouldve have more tank kills than planes in their 2S38. However, the thing is that in order for it to operate, there would be a small radar vehicle(based off of BMP-3 too) to provide searches, which is not a feature in warthunder yet.
Additionally, labelling it an SPAA and give it a BR higher would meant that the 2S6 can do its job but better.
The 2S38 hunts using thermals. A radar support vehicle isn’t necessary. We already have things like the Imp Chaparral sitting at 10.3 with only thermals for air hunting.

Same points again and again and again.
70% K/D ?

Your demand.
If the 2S38 was not a Russian vehicle it would be higher than 10.0. They are clearly not equal to each other, but there is also no way there should be a 1.3 BR difference. It’s standard RussianBias™, with a healthy dose of pay2win.
The player stats that we can’t see? Kills/deaths from an individual’s player card is not a good way to judge a vehicle. It’s tiring how often Russian-bias-defenders need this explained. Especially when the same people will (correctly) discount things like ThunderSkill.

I mean the only notable difference in pen-able area is in the side shot, though. The 2S38 and Strv have similar amounts of pennable front area here
But tell me what’s 70% K/D.
I don’t know if that’s the case, there’s loads of non-Russian premiums that are really strong and barely receive any attention from Gaijin.
I was implying that a vehicle that’s 1.3 BR undertiered should have abnormal stats by default, because you know, it’s criminally undertiered.
Being 1.3 BR under your real BR is a huge difference in my opinion and looks like a literal crutch, which would help everyone perform much better than they already are, it doesn’t matter if they are really bad or good.

50% = 1:1
70% = 1.5:1
100% = 2:1
Then why isn’t the OTOMATIC 10.0 since it doesn’t matter if there are people who are really good or really bad with it?

You can’t use logic to help someone out of a hole they didn’t use logic to get into.
So according to your post there’s no system of judging if a vehicle is more powerful than another in matches…
If the 2S38 wasn’t a Russian vehicle it’d still be 10.0, see Strf 9040C, see M24 light tanks which are notoriously under-BR’d.

Try reading just once for a change.
I said kills/deaths from individual players are not a good way to judge balance.

M24 is under-BR’d? How?
225mm APFSDS versus 170mm APFSDS
IRST tracking versus no IRST tracking
Access to APCBC shell with 151mm penetration
but hey they both have a funny gun that shoots fast

It’s a fast stabilized Sherman gun.
Its equivalents are all at 4.3 as well, which includes AMX-13 FL.
1- It’s IRT not IRST.
1a- IRT doesn’t impact BR, see M3A3 Bradley.
2- APCBC is drastically inferior to APFSDS, and is at 8.3 and 7.0.

So you believe that performance comparing singular players and giving them ratios for like-equipment, and comparing those ratios to other players is superior?
Cause I certainly do.
It’s how I’m able to determine over-performing vehicles in the BR system when cross-analysis can’t answer my questions.
The M24 doesn’t have a stabilizer.
The AMX-13 FL is much smaller and has better armor sloping.
