BMPT is volumetric hell and since war thunder is closer to CS:GO CQC tank edition than how real tank battles would be played out, with 2 autocannons and 4 lolpen missiles AND Rearm box, it would be a nightmare at any BR, at least toptier can dealt with them somewhat. It’s already been seen on dozens of vids it do just as good at the top as it does at 10.7 so it would do 0 difference if it was moved up. the stats don’t lie, it’s outperforming even the busted Kv-1E, KV-1B and even KV-220.

Gaijin needs more time to think about it lol
I think they made quarter mil in sales from the premium bmpt, prolly under 1 week seeing how many had it

Gaijin sure love to add broken vehicles then raise the BR after a month or 2. just look how they butchered our AGS from just a few years ago. If this thing gonna be 12.0 that’s the minimum the BMPT belongs at

Seeing as it has an equally effective spall liner as the T-90M, doesn’t have a giant cannon breech to shoot and its unmanned turret it can be top tier easily. Even the T-80BVM would be easier to deal with at 10.7 than this thing!

Where are the further changes gaijin? Hmm? Are you (gaijin) ok with the horrendous queue times and balance issues you’ve caused? What are the game designers and managers actually doing?

Designing two more terminators to release next update. Then they can balance all 4 at the same time.

its armor is overperforming all sides and the gaijin stupid volumetrics make it even more armored.

As I literally said: same hull as BMPT (refering to the techtree variant in-game) but with the newer turret also found on BMPT72 (refering to the premium variant in-game).
(Not allowed to use footage from current conflict here, so this is an image of the production-variant during a parade instead)
The armament was not changed whatsoever on the production variant neither was the available ammunition as is evident by uralvagonzavod brochures on the BMPT (old turret) and newer ones on BMPT72 (new turret).
As such a production variants sole benefits over the prototype BMPT in-game (if they are greedy enough to add it) would be the better commander-sight and missile arrangement/covers around them.

so if the newly production will be added, it will simply be a upgrade in armor/sight/new atgm.
Its relict/contact-5’s absurd destabilization effect, which while technically being a thing is just extremely overtuned imo, when considering that its 5x higher than what they model on Duplet.
Thus making the era more effective overall, despite having identical (compared to relict) or better (in case of contact-5) effect against KE.

It will be tech tree bmpt but with bmpt-72’s turret essentially.
So pretty much a even better version of two already overtuned vehicles.

More L27A1 not doing anything:
Its external fuel tanks surround the turret crew, leading to many shots not dealing nearly as much damage.
Maverick straight under the gun’s didnt take out a single crew member

Why do you think they’re so hesitant to increase their br and add a pre-production variant? We are so getting this and more variants.
oh that’s some serious BS with the fuel tanks, that should apply to almost all tanks ingame since almost every tank made had a steel wall between the engine room where the fuel was and the crew compartment with just a few holes for things like the drive train or cooling pipes for the radiators

It’d help if they didnt pull the “hurr durr magic ruslan steel” move and actually made the rha plating around the fuel-tanks create spall.
Ref.: Community Bug Reporting System
TAM’s 5mm RHA plate in comparison (both shot with 120mm DM 53 @ 0m)
They even split the plates so in case you had barely and residual pen left to hit the ammo, the second half of the fuel-tank’s armour could negate that. (which is not uncommon due to relict destabilization essentially nuking your residual penetration to <20mm after hitting the spall-liner depending on the angle you hit the era at.

ah yes, double spalling, at least that one made sense, ive seen far more stupid magically appearing spalling post pen
