The only “point” you have made is that you have no “point” or valid reason for the Fox to either be nerfed or go up in BR
:)
IS-3 is a worse IS-4M, and they both have terminal “heavy tank syndrome”, they are amazing in downtiers but awful in uptiers. The IS-3 would be fighting AMX-30B2s, Strv 104s, M60A1 RISE (P) and more at 7.7.
TURMS is not really even that good at 10.0 lmao, it has a good round, good optics, and okay armor and that’s it.
Poor mobility, bad reload, awful gun handling, awful reverse, poor survivability. You think it should be same BR as T-90A (better mobility and 3BM60 [and the T-90A isn’t even very good at 10.7 either lmao]), or M1A1 (better everything by a large amount aside from thermals)?
Heat failing isnt really a unique thing about the fox, but a general problem that affects pretty much every light vehicle (bmps more than any other in my experience)

Oh, just like the other heavy tanks that are at 7.7 - Which is very much a compression issue as we all know. However, that doesn’t mean the IS-3 should get a pass when it’s quite better than other 7.0-7.3 HTs.

Thermal quality is quite a big deal, actually. The armor is better than just " okay " with overperforming ERA. And given how maps are quite CQB oriented much of the mobility issue is basically a moot point, and even long range maps aren’t problematic because the Turms doesn’t have to work as hard to aim for weakspots like the competition does. Playing it is primarily a point and click adventure.
It can very well go to 10.7 and 11.0 and still perform.
Ever seen HEATFS and even APHE ricochet off the BMP’s LFP? I have. Sheer insanity of it lol.

How? Even on paper it seems to be worse than the Leopard 2A4s. Slightly better round worse reload, worse survivability, and much worse mobility/gun handling. DM23 can even go through the Turms’ UFP at certain distances/angles.

11.7 has been top ground BR for a year and a half now (while air has gone from 12.0 to 13.7), i unfortunately don’t think they’re going to decompress ground any time soon. And even if they do, it probably won’t be 6.7-8.7 considering they did a major decompression in summer 2023 of that area.
As for the TURMS, the UFP is ~350mm with 400mm in some parts due to volumetric, but LFP and mantlet are completely and easily get penned. Thermals are nice to have but things like mobility, penetration, reload rate, and armor are more important. The T-90A is at 10.7 and is just better than the TURMS, it has Gen 2 thermals and much better armor, 3BM60 and better mobility.

Can I please please please convey my joy at the compilation of Brits (and others, of course) going “literally get good”
It makes me so happy to see so many people.
I’m also going to be very naughty and nitpick - the Fox is a “CVR(W)” (W for wheeled)
Apart from the Striker, which is just plain ass, we have no CVR(T)s in game (though the Stormer is a lengthened CVR(T) hull in essence)

I propose to give the Fox STAB.

Most 10.0s and 10.3s can UFP the TURMs, and I’m not really sure how the ERA is overperforming with its 5mm of KE protection. The TURMs can still be UFPed by tandem ATGMs, all you’re stopping is normal HEAT rounds.
Also saying that mobility means nothing is definitely one of the claims of all time. It’s fairly easy to outflank a TURMs, especially in something like an Abrams or 2A4. The TURMs basically gives up everything for its round and thermals, which isn’t even that impressive when you consider that a lot of 10.0s have very similar performing rounds, without sacrificing mobility or gun handling. You could possibly make a case for it to be 10.3, but 10.7 or 11.0 is far too high.

To be fair the Starstreaks were taken away because they kept being used to snipe light ground targets as soon as the match started, not their AA capabilities. (Though I don’t think they should’ve been removed anyways)

They’re amazing, so it’s hilarious how nobody bothers with them. Literally some of the best armor at the BR with great guns and the best HMG in the game.
T-10M and the majority of SPAA can also shred the Fox if they are paying attention. Even unstabilized ones.
As someone who was continually bullied by first spawn AH Mk1 players, I appreciated the change.
It’s not a fun thing to fight against. At least the Fox is something that has to pop out and face you in order to kill you, chopper starstreaks are just lol welcome to die.
All this being said, penetration buff for starstreak should happen.
T-55am1 usually gets a full uptier,
Meanwhile in the Fox, I got constant downtiers.
2S38 and BMP-2M can be .50 cal’d… nor does the bmp have good stand off capability unless your pretty much touching it.
Facts? I showed you the facts lol, you ignored them in a biased mannor.
No I don’t think any normal person thinks like that…
So, you coming to the forum to troll and scream about the fox being okay isn’t having a fit? Okay sure lol.
You do not make a better argument at all. Italy got the BTR as well, what do you have to say about that hmm?
HA the Is-3 is already 7.3, and it’s OLDER than the T-29, and if you play with a brain, the T-29 is far more potent than a Is-6, or Is-3
My point: playing lazily with stock APHE I was destroying enemy tanks and maintaining a 1.0 kd,
Nearly spaded with APDS, my KD shot up to 2.0 rapidly.
Now imagine if a USSR vehicle did that.
