Yes all Autocanon tanks are good. But all can usually be killed with a single shot anywhere.
The only tank in game with both top tier MBT armour AND an autocanon is the BMPT.
BMP, Puma, Ajax, CV90, any of these come round the corner, you can usually fire and kill it, especially in a vehicle of the same class. In the BMPT… in a MBT with a good enough shell you have a fraction of the second to nail a tiny weakspot and pray it works. In an IFV… J out.
That is the problem. To pretend the BMPT is just like any other IFV/AFV is just intentionally being misleading
It’s hangar simulations bruh, go and verify it in game.
yeas and no - 2S38 has slower rate of fire, so give u chance to react.
BMPT problem is, it can’t be balanced in WT. You have 2 choices there - if u set it higher, probably make it useless. If you stay - will be above average. I use BMPT a lot at 13.0 set, and there is typicall troll tank - when i have nothing more to get, i get BMPT ( enemies uses then light tanks etc ). Sometimes u can do something fun with it, but mostly u are free frag for MBT - ofc, if your enemy dont panic when he sees BMPT xD
It literally has the same hull and ERA config as the T-72B3 and T-90M respectively.
And unlike those, it has an unmanned turret that is very hard to disable… At least with either of those other tanks you can fairly easily destroy barrel or gun breach.
Right and?
Puma and BMPT meet headon. BMPT always wins. Period.
That isnt balance.
Which means it gets an ammo crate, more like a buff than a nerf.
But that is still a poor excuse for it to be sub 11.0
True, if this was reality. we’d have ERA perforating rounds that would entirely and completely nullify soviet ERA, instead in war thunder, its an unpentrable super armour, capable of stopping anything, including tandem charge ATGMs.
It is exceedingly small target that I find only gets disable about 10% of the time. Even as annoying as the 2S38 is, a hit to the turret disables it, no matter what. I nailed a BMPT turret with 2x L27A1 in the Chally 2, nothing, it kept firing.
Move the Premium BMPT to 11.0 or 11.3
Move the TT BMPT to 11.7 or 12.0 (with buffs)
and it would be a LOT more balanced than it is right now sub 11.0.
My previous encounters:
1.BMPT:covered lower front plate it took 3 guys to finally kill it
2.BMPT: 3 DM33 105 side shots did nothing.Other guys’s shot finally killed
3.BMPT: 5 M830 of M1A1 to non era blocked places did nothing.Finally died
4.BMPT:Only turret was seen.Side turret shot did not kill only took the ammo away.
So this thing mostly takes more than one guy to kill.
