Or if you’re wearing headphones/turned your speakers on, keeping an ear out. The fox is louder than some super heavy tanks.
You’d probably have to be listening to some very very loud music or whatever audio to miss a fox driving towards you.

Fox is way too loud for its size lol even the idling can be heard in 50m range, and if someone uses headphone then you can’t expect him not to notice you sitting in a corner. The engine is very loud too, sounds like a V8 instead of inline 6.

In fairness if the Fox isn’t putting his foot down and is just coasting, it is somewhat quiet.
Of course, the Flipside to that is when you fo out your foot down, you can hear a Jaguar engine from the other side of the map.
Mmmm okay… not sure I agree but your opinion

I honestly dont get why people are comparing it to the btr at this point, if they took a second to see what it would be facing if they moved it to 8.0 they would soon realise the pt 76 57 is at 8.3. Ifu think an unstabilised 30mm without a lrf with a slow fire rate should be 0.3 away from a pt 76 57 then your smoking something.
Also, the btr is 7.3? Its a lower br than the fucking fox so can you finally stfu about it.

At what BR did you start using the fox? 7.0 or 7.7? Just curious, sorry if you said before but in 1100 posts its hard to keep up.
If at 7.7, I was slowly moving more and more to using the stock rounds, because simply you meet so many softer targets, the secondary effect is much more helpful to have I am finding, especially against BTRs and the like, and now after the AP/APHE buffs… yeah.
Side point: Was the APHE on the RARDEN always 53mm pen? IDK why but I thought it was higher lol.
I keep 2 mags of APHE loaded on top before the APDS for that same reason. Its most helpful in an early fight if you catch another light vehicle on the move but once you’ve reached your initial destination the APDS gives you the ability to fight things that the APHE simply cannot pen.

We all know what side gunjob is on anyhow
Doesn’t matter, hes going to be the reason it moves up again if he keeps playing… Im still surprised the tornado didnt get moved to 12.3 with the new changes as it certainly made it better, and gaijin dont like that for us.
you ever wonder if gaijin would add the 30mm apfsds round made for the warriors gun…
Never, they would never add an experimental round that hasnt gone into service with unknown stats… oh wait. "s38s rounds make believe so anything’s possible.

I mean, it isnt completely unknown stats, several are, though IIRC 1 that got “approved” but didnt go forward was a modified Rheinmetall 30x173 APFSDS projectile, though ofc we dont know how much energy the projectile would have from the RARDEN gun, etc. Unless anyone has a Rheinmetall sales pitch given to users or something xD
I don’t play my home country in WT, thus that kind of thing really doesn’t matter to me, if it matters to you, maybe you should enlist.
7.7, and i found the APHE to pen a lot more things than I was expecting, and typically a penetrating hit was a 1 shot, because the foxs APHE is like a nuclear bomb for some reason, compared to pretty much any other auto cannon I’ve played in the game such as:
The gepard, PUMA
The BMP, BTR,
Xm800, etc etc
I don’t know the exact explosive massive off the top of my head but it’s certainly gets the job done.
As for the good old APDS, somehow that spalls more that the 60mm on the Aubl HVG and I’m not quite sure how to be honest, as I’ve more reliably 1 shot, or at least had the reload for a follow up shot with the Fox.
