Yeah, why go only half FUBAR …
Agreed. I stopped using it at 8.3 because it ruined my 7.7/8.0 lineup.
Not gonna use it until it comes down in BR.
they rly dont need the APDS.
They can remove the APHE and give belts of half APDS and half HE and that would be fine the AP-IT and APHE is the problem.
Barrel, Track, and MG then flank and shoot the 40mm lower side armour with APHE/AP-I.
Sorry for late answer, but at point blank - 0°, pen will be 95-105 mm
And while you concentrate on taking out all that, he mg’s your turret crew. Or before that, a bullet hits the turret basket and disabled entire turret control, because you have no armor.
I dont say its impossible. I know how to take out a T tank. But without the apds, it becomes much harder. A lower br is justified.
It’s an spaa my dude. You cannot just say people will not play it bevause it cannot kill the most armoured target at their BR.

SIDAM 25 is probably the one of the only AAs in the game that has a main belt which is absolutely useless against ground targets.
if it goes lower it fights all the 7.0-7.7 heavys
also having it at a higher BR is better bc lighter targets to shoot at.
Thats why I think they buffed the XM246.
also the Shilka’s
another fun time game mechanic gaijin added that literally no one asked for. any damage to the turret basket disables ALL turret control, including the 2 nicely placed manual levers that crew could use to turn hte turret.
whaaaaat? it has a MANUAL turret traverse mechanic that could be used in case electronics failed?!
no, lets ignore that, gaijin. lets ignore the fact it has a MANUAL turret control when electronics fail.
so gaijin should add manual turret swivel, smoke shells, and a tracking radar now. and after all that, still lower its BR cause it lost the APDS
note on the left side of the turret, it had a smoke discharger fitted at the time this photograph was taken.
so even if the turret basket is struck by a shell, and the falcon loses turret control, manual traverse is still available. the falcon should never lose turret control. but due to gaijin mechanics, it does.

please support my bug report and right some wrongs done to the falcon.
