I think put it at 12.7 with APFSDS will be much more fair.
Any br above 11.7 would be fair
It doesn’t need APFSDS. People literally bring it to top tier and it still performs decent enough. It also can’t use APFSDS.

WT and deleting vehicles doesn’t go hand in hand.
2a42 can use apfsds
9 kills, 5 oneshots. Easiest game ever.
at least imo, BMPT-72 could go to 11.7 without APFSDS since it has worse survivability than the BMPT (2 less crew members which means one shotting it is actually possible), while BMPT goes to 12.7 (also without APFSDS or MAYBE could be very very heavily discussed about if it should get it).
the only thing proven in ukraine is that veichle sucks ass and in this this game is almost unkillable, realistically it it so bad that can’t even hit targets at 50 meters because the barrel shake like a leaf while shooting for poor assembly quality, like the rest of their equipment

bmpt is not proven to use apfsds
Ok bro
He’s not wrong
I digress
Can we stop pretending that the bmpt needs a buff to go up to 12.7? It can pen all nato mbts from the side while being an absolute pain to disable unlike everything else that’s currently at 11.0

It pens 70% if not 80% of 12.7 from the front currently, while still randomly sending 620mm+ darts to the shadow realm.
The only ones pretending it needs any buffs are Russian mains tbh, they already know it can nuke 12.7s with just APDS, but they want a “compensation” for having to use slightly more than 0.5 braincells to play the BMPT at higher BRs.

Im advocating for it to be remodelled bruh
I swear its APDS is not APDS man it peppered me the other day there clean through the front of a CR1, which doesn’t sound like much but it’s got supposedly 82MM of pen. through the front of a CR1 turret makes no sense.
Meanwhile rdf-lt and hstvl crying in the corner because having a brain and flanking is actually worse against Russia

In the before times, the better days, I would either corner camp engine off in light vehicles and let the T series come blitzing around the corner unaware, or barrel/track them during a charge.
Enter stage left BMPT, I corner camped engine off in my MBTs because JP MBT about as armoured as a light vehicle, a sneeze makes the tank implode, so APDS mulches it down to the atoms.
That has a reason, iirc.
The reason behind why the BMPT’s cannons wobble and shake so much is due to the recoil of both guns combined, and that’s why it’s not used against tanks, but infantry.
The cannons of the BMPT were mainly made to fight infantry with the HE belts, with the 30mm grenade launchers as secondary weapon for urban encounters.
Sadly there’s no infantry ingame, so all the BMPT can do is abuse tanks
