BMPT/72 Should not be 10.3

Someone should go ahead and prove that BMPT or BMPT72’s feeding and stowage systems are compatible with 3UBR11 first.
(gl with that, not even uralvagonzavod lists it as an option for BMPT/BMPT72)

The round is not in production, nor used by the vehicle in combat and its existence beyond a showpiece-/prototype stage more questionable than the decision to put the bmpts at 10.3.

Besides, they literally started production of a new AP-T round (3UBR10) to replace the old AP-T (3UBR6) with, instead of going for increasing the production of 3UBR8 (which is also rarely ever used) or starting production of 3UBR11.

thats the ammo it can use

4603

no it wasn’t, I saw them shooting with destroyed guns, shooting after being ammo racked, I saw one or two shooting for a few seconds after dying (not joking, but that may have been an animation bug), hit them in the back of the turret with 155mm HE and done zero damage. The only reason the BMPT is worse is its also premium and there is FAR more of them.

4604

aphe for the bmpt when ?

4605

Now hear me out… we put a Falcon or Gepard turret on the BMPT…

4606

you could actually shoot the turret compared to the bmpts

4607

Ah! Is that so? Then I take it back xD

Historical accuracy above all! If it uses no APFSDS, then it shouldn’t have it indeed.

Nah, because that would include adding Fake Blowout Panel and making its ammo External))

4609

Still can be 12.7 :P

Or maybe give it the slightly better ATGM (I think it used those) and bump it up more

My prediction in the post you responded to you’re claiming is wrong while proving correct:

4612

we should just create a poll with multiple brs, players vote and gaijin should move the vehicle on the picked br

IF they would do this

this vehicle has been breaking every br so far, i dont think 11.3 will be difficult for them, they now have better CAS options

4613

Gaijin decides br based on data. There is no democracy here. And the newbies buying the BMPT-72 isn’t helping as it balances the veteran players’ stats.

4614

it should be top teir and also allow top teir MBTs to get better performing rounds for the ERA

4615

if that will happen russian tanks will be pretty much useless, thats why gaijin wont add it for now

4616

Ad populum is not how you balance games.

This is accounted for. Worse players playing BMPT will perform better in an OP BMPT than other vehicles they play, thus causing statistical anomaly proving its OP status.

4617

they perform about the same as china is rn

4618

russian tanks in the game are mainly feared due to the ERA they have, yes china also has ERA but have larger tanks, russian tanks are quite small and have ERA blocks everywhere

and the reload buff (T80BVM or any other T80 series) also gives them an edge since most players dont have an experted or aced crew

4619

i know i play t80 what im saying is that with the better apfsds they would perform similar to how china currently performs china also used the MZ and AZ auto loaders and have similar hull and turret architecture
