I think they’ve been told to outright lie about it to shut down efforts to make it less survivable, no way they are this foolish. Not like it would make it less survivable, the belts like are like 2 cm wide frontally, good luck trying to snipe the belts in an MBT.
Oh i didnt know that the T72B was sporting Relict these days, my mistake then. /s
The weapons are 10.3 material tho. They are not sub par for the BR at all.
please point out the 10.3 vehicle with FnF missiles im quite sure youre gonna hard a hard time doing that.
Do you just write things hoping that your opposite is dumb?
The T-90M hull is still using the T-72B composite array.
The T-90M’s turret however is the best in the Soviet tech tree 2nd to none.
While BMPT’s turret is a significant 100mm weakspot; 550mm, and 650mm thick elsewhere.
T-90M’s is over 900mm, over 200mm, and an almost non-existent turret right weakspot.
@H_ngma
One of the T-72Bs has K5, and both BMPT and T-72B K5 protect against DM53 at medium ranges.
The array itself protects against most rounds at 10.0 - 11.0.
Also dude… the BMPT’s offensive gun is on the BMP2 at 8.7.
And the ATGM’s 800mm of pen is equated or improved across a number of vehicles, including BMP3.
Not a single 10.3 cannon-missile vehicle in the game has weapons equivalent to BMPT’s, they’re all better.
The post you quoted is missing the other BRs of 10.0 and 10.7 I apparently forgot to type in, it’s fixed now.
Out of the 4 autocannon ATGM carrying vehicles at 10.3, 2 are using missiles of top-attack with 200mm or 1200mm penetration.
And at 10.7, you get 5/5 with Spike missiles.
Of the 5 at 10.0, all have APFSDS, and similar performing missiles.
This is why I say the armor is the reason its BR should be higher.
Everyone knows spikes are really underperforming, you need like 2-3 to kill 1 mbt. All because it doesnt have top attack feature and with side shots it just goes for the frontal track or barrell, or the top mg.
Both BMPTs sport Relict what are you talking about? And if you think thats not a reason for a good br jump ask Gaijin why the T72B3A sits .6 higher than the B3
Yes but there are literally 10.3 vehicles that only have a cannon and no missiles.
Like i said a couple times already the weaponry is sufficient and fits 10.3 its not the reason it should go up but paring these weapons with top tier protection and an unmanned turret is very much a reason
This is actually the first time I see a claim that diesel fuel tanks are modelled with less probability to be exploded. I thought they were the same in the game.
Also as you can see even if you pen it, post pen damage sometimes not that great, compared when you shoot a mbt through the neck it most of the times kill everything in the turret.
10.0 - 11.0 has over 10? tanks with the pen.
M60 AMBT, Sabra Mk1, 120S, M1128 x2, ZTZ-96A x2, ZTZ-99 x2, M10 Booker, and an honorable mention to LOSAT.
And as for Spikes not fragging tanks… they very much are fragging tanks right now consistently with one missile from what I’ve witnessed. I’ve been seeing that killfeed in many matches recently.
Edit: This statement of me witnessing things is not my opinion nor my conclusion on SPIKE missiles. It’s purely here to share information so we can all have higher knowledge of what’s happening in our matches. -End edit.
Also front-aspect only shots are typically on large maps.
I haven’t been getting Sands of Sinai, Red Desert, Fields of Normandy, etc recently to see only front armor of BMPTs.
@H_ngma
Glad we agree BMPT uses Relikt.
B3A has APS causing its BR change.
AJAX has 3x the pen of with lower shatter angles.
Also don’t you all agree with me that BMPT should move up?
Ground launched FnF are unreliable as hell tho, they work quite well against lightly armored vehicles, but otherwise they work like 1/3 times, and the Jaguar for exemple got only 4 missiles onboard, making them a backup or a last resort at best
