if we talking about eitan it would be nice to see it in some configuration on 10.0, for example with 105mm sabra turret or mythical 40mm autocannon that is mentioned in half of articles about that vehicle and noone said whats gun is that, it would be similar to VCBI and don’t have to play again russian 11.3…
Now this vehicle is kinda useless bcs of lack of firepower

I hope we get this vehicle soon

they have for sure change in first place eitan’s modifications tech tree,
it’s unreasonable that HI-TEC high-tier vehicle have to suffer on 11.3 while being one of the worst vehicles on that BR playing APDS that cant penetrate anything even on side armor, without thermo, lR / tracking radar and ATGM that you can’t rely on (you gonna get like 1 kill per 10 spikes so it’s not counted at all + can carry only 4 of them) you have no programmable ammo like for example in boxers that are 0.7 br lower, no 0.50 cal, its mean 0 Anti-air capabilities. Your speed is just decent and armor not exist at all. It used to have spall liner on dev server but they took it away for some reason. The APS is useless at all cuz noone ever gonna shot ATGM at you at this battle rating…
The vehicle got a lot of “features” that are totally basic, not giving any advantage and uptiers eitans battlerating

In the end this vehicle should be downtiered at least to 10.7 same that squadron freccia with 10 spikes is on

Unless you steal their blueprints and take one to gaijins headquarter forget about programmable shells
aka Mk 310

like there is no even evidence of exist ammo like kh-38IR, nothing how LMURS perform but they’re somehow in game and broking toptier, also there is a lot of evidence about spikes that should make them better but they keep it useless cuz they’re not in russian techtree

Probably just the 40mm conversion that all Bushmaster II guns are capable of undergoing. I doubt said conversion actually happened on the Eitan, Namer, or any other Israeli 30mm platform for that matter though.

They themselves said we might have a little bias

Eitan still has SPIKE missiles in hull when taking only 2

If anyone wants to remake the bug report about it having wrong radar detection speeds for the MAW, feel free

its mentioned in a lot of sources mostly its copy-paste as i see but it is mentioned so maybe they gonna do smth about it
there is also no thing irl like KH38 with ir seeker but ut is in game
its just mentioned

share the sources pls.

must be misinformation sites or smth

Yeah but there’s something that makes them different kh38 is a Russian munition
While on the other hand Eitan is a NATO vehicle everything about it could be marketing lies

Isn’t it obvious?

Not trying to be rude or anything at all. But the Eitan is not a NATO. Israel is not part of NATO. They are part of what is called MNNA. But I do agree. If it isn’t Russian. Good luck getting anything modeled correctly. Russia gets mock ups and fake things added. No other nation gets the same treatment as much as Russia does.
