Hello everyone,
With the last update, there is some changes in BR.
In the list published by Gaijin (Planned BR Changes — April 2025 - Google Drive) there is no mention of AMX-40 changes, but in the game it is now in 10.0 in GRB instead of 9.7 previously.
The wiki is still in 9.7 (AMX-40 - War Thunder Wiki) :
So I wondering if it’s a mistake putting AMX-40 in 10.0 or if Gaijin “forgot” to mention it in the list of updated BR.
The Amx-40 is mentioned
Okay, thanks, I am just blind :D
no problem, it can happen
Did they put it in 10.0 to go with the VEXTRA ? Or just to nerf it ?
Wont make much of a difference for the AMX-40. But the Vextra atleast got a nice new shell.
Knowing gaijin…
The Vextra however is fine with the new round, AMX-40 has a slightly lower pen then dm33(205) or dm23(120) or equivelant.
It’s just held back by the fixed gunners sight 10x, although it has thermals.
Coax is less flexible then on the kpz & 2k, but still usable. It has the same hp/t ratio as the type 90, but 2k had 0.3 more and reverse gearbox.
The Leclerc fires the same round from a different gun and gets 425mm point blank, longer caliber barrel me thinks.
Looking at the overall stats of the current 10.0 is very hard to find balance.
So now to make any kind of lineup, you need to uptier the cv9035nl, roland 1 and or the premium vbci-2. The leo 2a4nl would make it even worse, in terms of uptier.
Which for me in GFAB is somewhat working, granted most of the work is done with the Vextra.
