It’s by far the best armoured IFV in the game, mate. Not even the Namers come close. What do you mean by ‘the only thing it has going for it’? It has two 30 mm cannons with a high ROF, as well as four beam-riding 800 mm penetration tandem charge ATGMs, which are certainly better than the slower and weaker TOW missiles that most other IFVs have at that BR range. It also has an ammo box to replenish its missiles, which Namer and Puma VJTF players have been asking for years. Quite a few other IFVs don’t even have ATGMs to begin with… It isn’t that slow either. In fact, it has a higher hp/t ratio and a higher top speed than the Namers. Only the reverse speed is worse.
Saying movility is king is an opinion. All these factors carry the same weight. Saying one is more important than the other is just plain wrong. And there’s no need to correct me on misnomers to try and make yourself look smart. Survivability is how well the tank survives period.
I 100% agree with this. I think the Abram’s have great potential. But let’s put in it practice. A team with a majority of low skill ceiling tanks allowing even under average or unskilled players to perform well vs a team with maybe 1 or 2 skilled players. In terms of actual gameplay, it provides an unfair advantage. We talk about how gaijin tries to balance the game and yet are left with this.
Quick question, where are ya’ll shooting this thing to kill it?
I had some people mention ammo, which worked one single time for me but every time i destroy it now, it just doesn’t do anything at all, sometimes it starts a fire but that doesn’t seem to prevent the other gun from shooting
LFP isn’t always an option, had a few bunch of matches where BMPT spam overruns our spawn and they just keep tanking shots

Go see how many people called the inferior T-80BVM OP compared to the superior T-90M.
Go see how well people are doing in the superior T-90M.
Like, in a direct cross analysis T-80BVM is inferior to T-90M.
But because of War Thunder’s over-performing mobility, T-80BVM performs as well and better than T-90M.
It’s hard to say, but in terms of armament, it is more similar to the IFVs we have in the game. I wouldn’t call it an MBT, even though it has the armour of one. ‘Anti-tank missile carrier’ as the game calls it doesn’t make much sense for me either.
hull armor is trolly at worse, 9.3/7s can barely pen and have to hit a small weakspot the height of most tank rounds. especially if you are being blinded and/or firing from long range, it is not ok for this thing to be where it is.
Tried going for that a few times, problem is they tend to keep the hull hidden behind cover and other times they’ll just blind you with the firerate or debarrel
