This is clearly another oversight of compression. How can this be on the same battle rating of a t/55/62, an M60, the Chieftain Mk 10, or the dreadful 103c? Closer to the performance of 9.3 just for the usability in combination with average mobility and good penetration
Lets let the Brits have a good tank for once ok?
The spec looks like its going to be a slightly worse hull down sniper than the MK10, only 8x gunner zoom lol
Those are worse tanks
Its a sidegrade to the Mk10
Chieftain 900 is chieftain that isnt weighed down by armor that would work anyway while having better mobility and sabot than its 8.7 contemporaries.
Dont know about you but thats a massive win in my book lol.
They said it with the fox, and the za-35, and the shir 2, now the chieftan 900…
People complaining about british players complaining about getting the short end of the stick, and then complaining when british players get the good end for once is delicious irony (tongue twister)

Powercreep, as usual.
No way in hell are the Object 435 or T-55AM/D1 in the same league of capability, neither in firepower, ergonomics or mobility.
T-62M is far slower, again has worse ergonomics, and has a very slight worse reload
TTS is more or less onpar.
I mean is the Fox, Falcon, and ZA-35 not good?
none of them are a tank
I mean they are on the ground tree but if thats not acceptable we could talk about all sorts of BR’s it doesn’t really matter Brits are in so much denial you could point out plenty of great vehicles and they’ll still claim they’re bad
What compression?
The Chieftain 900 is slightly worse armor than Mk10 for a bit more mobility.
We got plenty of good tanks, the problem is 6.7 and below is mostly ass and top tier is mostly ass. The stuff between doesn’t matter that much for most people
6.7 and below, smh thats some of my favorite stuff, the Matilda and valentines are underated heavy tank gems, and the Charioteer isn’t bad minus the reverse. Also the Ram 1 and Cromwell are both solid mediums with some serious armor, thats some disrespect to those beasts. Well minus the Ram, its kinda rng based lol still love it
I’m still struggling to see why this being the same BR as the Type 88s/OF-40 Mk.2/Leo A1A1 is so outrageous.
is it even good though?
Because it fires a similar round, has a laser range finder, and is decently mobile… it’s obvious they’re equivalents.
Its British
They have added the prototype 900 without the intended composite armour. So in effect they have added a Mk.5/3P with a few “tin” panels on it and a different engine.
Shouldn’t even have APFSDS either as the mk.5/3P couldn’t stow it
