Flakpanzer 341

no i complain about the 2s38 and i own it too but guess what i rarely touch it and the turm isnt that op to begin with it has no armor is light enough for a light tank classification and still isnt a light tank and it tends to struggle against russian vehicles so again only one coping here is you the 341 is an op aphe dispenser just as the 2s38 is an op apfsds dispenser if you have a problem with the turm go into the forum page about it and like you told me cry about it

That’s my main issue with auto cannons, their ability to find pixel sized armour holes or just spam you so hard the server gives up and just kills you so it doesn’t have to deal with it anymore.
The other issue is SPAAs being uptierd due to their anti tank capabilities to the point they struggle to deal with planes, the ZSU-57-2 and Falcon being the 2 best examples. If the ZSU got the same VT round as the Chinese one and went up to the same BR it would help.
If those 2 issues are addressed I would have far less issue with the SPAAs AP rounds.
But this is ridiculous and needs fixing:

Yes, a lot of people complain about the Flakpanzer 341 when they do this. Positioning is very important when fighting against this vehicle but even with good positioning, it can still be pretty hard to confront this vehicle. I made this thread to discuss the problem of it doing things it shouldn’t like destroying vehicles front-on that would be near impossible for other SPAA especially in the 5.3 to 8.0 range (With the BR changes 5.3 and 5.7 won’t have it anymore). I know a lot of people will point out the ZSU-57-2 having APHE and the ZSU-57 having HVAP with a lot of pen at 3.3 is “OP” but its the high rate of fire, APHE rounds with a lot of penetration, and protection that made the Flakpanzer 341 overpowered at its former BR (It still is OP at 7.0+).

The flakpanzer 341 and other SPAAs are perfectly fine for the game.

SPAA’s are an essential part of the game. The Flakpanzer 341 is a great SPAA, don’t get me wrong, but its performance against tanks (Especially heavy tanks like the IS3 and Object 279) way beyond its capabilities is crazy.

The T34 side armour is around 80mm, broadly comparable to the Tiger II’s in thickness. At point blank range, even a Chaffee or a Puma will punch through that side armour and he would have been just as dead. Reversing like that might have been worth it if the enemy on the other side of the rock had to reload the main gun after taking out the Scorpion, but this was not the case here.

Just casually admitting to TOS violation on the forums? Why?

Guns were built in metal.

All but one of the 9 kills I made in my first ever nuke I got, using the 341 on patch day, were either 1) glass cannon M18s or 2) heavies driving side on in front of me.

More recently, I had a 6-kill game in an 8.7 match using the 341 as uptier insurance. All I did was sit behind a corner all game, where I proceeded to melt two M103s, a Conqueror, a Bradley, and two others. And to think when I spawned the 341 in that game, some guy said “what the fuck is a flakpanzer 341 doing here?” Then upon killing the first M103 and Bradley within 5 seconds, he just said “holy shit”

goes to show how stupid mistakes for one, mean a feeding frenzy for another

That is precisely why it is using an F hull (& not a D) in this game although as noted above, someone should (re)bug report its incorrect roof armor
