ICV and RCV are both at 9.7 with same gun, same thermal, a bit faster. This thing is fine at 9.3 maybe 9.0 but thats it.

puma is 10.3 and + 4 missile 11.0 so
Bradley has the 25 Bushmaster EFV has the 30 Bushmaster with better darts honestly it’s not that big of a difference and I think EFV should be a little lower I think as far as light tanks go in utility that the XM800T is a better option
Not even a bradley, theres CV9030 Fin with the same cannon and same ammo.

I think it schould be placed at least 9.0 as 1) the gun is good ( yeah apfsd kick in) 2)its big and an easy target for anyone (xm800t is 8.7 becouse its fast, good gun actually, and ratty, bmp3/4 has good gun(both) and fast, + good theramals.) 3) you can get 50.caled. So im my opinion the EFV schould be at 9.0.
Would probably be better of at 8.7

actaully great idea, but i dont think the devs think so
Bushmaster, fast, looks cool in water = immediate BR jump.

BMP-3 is far less mobile, and with a worse gun.

Far less mobile yes but 9m117 has more utility than 30 mm bushmaster but BMP3 has very limited ammo capacity for them

It simply isn’t how the BR system works - if a singular vehicle is better than another that they must be at a different BR.
A more immediate comparison would be CV 9030FIN
They are both 9.3 and have the same gun, similar protection, 3 crew, and roughly the same mobility.
Main difference is the CV90 has a faster reverse and is smaller in profile, and the EFV can swim while the CV90 cannot. Sadly amphibious capability means little in current War Thunder maps, and the high profile is a big disadvantage for a light vehicle.
I think the CV 9030FIN is already kind of mid at 9.3, and it seems the EFV will be a bit worse. So yeah, EFV may not be 9.3 material.

Compression, but that’s an unsatisfying answer

real question is why is the BMP3 and BMD4 there too
firstly, who wanna waste their time in the water? its a free kill. Okay the Bushmaster is good, but why isnt leopard a1a1 and m60aos tts not 9.3, good gun, +350 mm apfsd. easy targets. and the efv is huge, and easy target for anyone
Why does this thing only have Composite covers for side armor and turret armor
with no backing plates for it?
There are no Spall Liner either despite previous AAV have spall liner

Wasnt spall liner for AAVs really late upgrade, maybe even after EFV cancelation?
Most likely an upgrade taken from the EFV project
Its not really because of the Stingray its mostly the APFSDS round it gets also its speed being pretty reliable bc at this br you can just about pen anything from the side (to my knowing at least)
lmao that to
