I haven’t gotten the crv yet but if it’s aps is as bad as the kf41 I won’t even touch it. And ik it’ll be bad because god forbid a NATO tank countering a Russian tank. Shit is not even funny I had to switch to arcade and only play spaa that’s how I grinded through 10.7-11.3

in the test drive it straight up doesnt work on side aspect shots.
only one which actually does anything is the one in thefront the rest is impossible to get to go off in my experience

As expected but I’m grinding namer tsrikhon and the aps works on that thing thankfully
Is it actually good? Was grinding Israel but I’m heavily merka out after playing too many Magbachs.
my brother likes it, but i imagine its as good as a vehicle with spikes and bushmaster can be.

The terminator has raised the bar for IFV and tank destroyers. Pumas, bradleys, CRVs, Lynx, every IFV needs to be reconsidered now. BR wise, external belts, ATGMS, armor, everything.

Each rank has a vehicle you can enjoy rank 4 m51 , zachlam tager , hovet
rank 5 , shilka , magach 5 , sho’t
rank 6 , magach hydra, shot Kal alef , machbet , merkava mk1b
rank 7 namer 30, both merkava’s , Sabra mk1
rank 8 (I only have Spyder which is pretty good giving that I haven’t tried other nations top tier spaa )
Also the namer 30 is actually very good 20 degrees of depression it doesn’t have that much ammo but since it has a crewless turret you can just bait multiple enemies and waist their time and ammo so I’m looking forward to namer tsrikhon

It’s ass compared to others but I like it
Bradleys carries 9 people total
German Puma carries 9 people total
BMPT is a BMP without the Infantry so it’s actually a tank destroyer fights with infantry as an IFV but the main goals of the rest was APC.
Gajin says nah, light tank and Tank Destroyer. Completely different mission set vehicles but are supposed to act like tanks?
My opinion is those should not be in game. Else I want a toyota with ATGM already.
They are not in the same category at all even mission wise.
I really wished Gaijin left ground as just pure MBT fighting MBT. That’s why WWII is still loved by veteran players. IFVs and autocannon SPAA makes matches a clusterfuck as MBTs.

Oh god now that i think of it.
We except worse reactions from people when the 2017 upgrade package will be added.
Even worse.
Infantry mode will get afvs and if the bmpt get added, the forum is screwed

Best Namer (in my opinion) is the Namer-30 due to the -20 Vertical Guidance it gets, you can just hide your entire tank and just show your turret. Spikes are spikes and Bushmaster is the Bushmaster so you might not get BMPT performance (lol). The Tsrikhon (difficult to spell that one) has an APS which actually works (after months of it not working even when pointing the dispensers to the threat on test drive although it doesn’t stop (guess what…) KHs, LMURs and Ba-11s, might also not stop heli Spikes but I haven’t experienced getting even targeted by Spike carriers (they do have the Eurofighters) and me playing Israel basically makes it impossible to get paired against it. Brimstones, it does thankfully tank them . I’ve got hit by them of course, it’s not a 100% chance of stopping it but still it’s high enough to not worry much about it and actually look at the ground vehicles that might start touching you.
Also, if by chance you actually “evade” a KH it just disables the entire tank, breaking tracks, breach gun barrel and god knows all the components making you a very easy target.
I’d guess that’s the reason why they have the same BR, the first one gets better depression and the second trades it for an APS.
Just protect and move your ass when someone sees you because ammo racking it is as easy as using miniguns, it basically depletes all of its rounds and makes you rely on Spikes if you still have them or cope with it/go to a point to reload and try to stay alive whilst doing so.
Although not the same, the Tsrikhon also gets ammo racked but with a round to its turret, it also depletes all the ammo and so on.

So very usable that it was deployed only a couple of times in a war that should have been the perfect battleground for it and said deployments ended up in failures.
There’s a reason why most other nations never seriously pursued similar concepts.

I only play top tier and when you’re at the top of 12.7 there’s really nothing to complain about if you have everything. My problem with the APC’s (Bradleys, PUMA, BMPs) is they’re expected to act like tanks which is fine but they need better perks. (Maybe fully crewed up to 9, Recon UAV that’s automatic vs manual, INTEL, ATGMs that work, Support MBT’s with faster repair and replenish their missing crew as an APC would) maybe I need a thread to Gajin about this.
I wish we had more light tanks besides BMPT for 10.7 😭
A nice thought, but infantry prob cant control APCs.
People are already saying recon scouting is op.
Fully support
A really interesting thought.
I would fully back you if u make this thread.
So far, even without the “Additional ERA Kit” it is STUPIDLY survivable 😂 I might have to pay for the Ace training once I get to the 50% reduction in GE’s, just to see how stupid I can get it.

This is such a weird case where we are rooting players to slaughter in the terminator so we can get balance lol.

The USSR has more light tanks than anyone else at that BR, by like a factor 2 or 3
