I think BMPT can go to 11.3, and firing both steel needles and double tubes at the same time can go to 12.3. Because even if I bring him to 13.0, I can still shoot a nuclear bombAnd add steel needles

The issue is that most combat happens in CQC so the BMPs accuracy is less of an issue. And, the bradley was never given its 30mm resistant armor. So even at range, the bmp only needs to land a handfull of hits to detonate ammor disable something important.

That does not take away from the bmps terrible survivability aside from the occasional trolly volumetric that happens. It’s a glass cannon.

I was talking about the bmp2’s cannon (2a42). My point was high rate of fire its gonna have less accuracy than a slow bushmaster. So if a bmpt has 2 of this inaccurate cannons, the accuracy its gonna be worse, LIKE IN REAL LIFE.

Bradley surviving 30mm not sure about that. And well bmps are known to have low armor.

It’s actually only one gun firing. If you watch closely you’ll notice it’s only muzzle flush and shell ejections from the left gun. The reason the other barrel is wobbling is because of the force of the rounds coming out of the left barrel. The weapon system irl is incredibly innacurate it has a very light barrel with next to no support so it just turns into a brick being thrown into a washing machine.

It should be 11.3 In its current state…

I was really looking forward to this tank being able to fire both guns, it was such a disappointment that it couldn’t, just give it an accuracy penalty and raise the BR to 11.3.

Should also be given 9M220 for anti-air.

With APFSDS.

It’s because it actually can’t fire both guns at the same time lol

There’s no clip of the bmpt barrels not wobbling, but the clip you’re talking Abt is the opposite you can see that only one barrel is actually firing

Bradley’s with busk are extremely well protected against 30mm apds frontally and to the sides, without busk apds is an issue but it can deal with 30mm ap-t.

that is true for real life and war thunder:

Waiting for it to be that one video everyone thinks is both guns firing when it’s actually just one

What’s steel needles? APFSDS?

Yes

The “Twin” Mode: The B07-S1 Fire Control System includes a selector for “Twin” (Спаренный) mode. This slaves both cannons to a single trigger.

Last time I checked, 2x550rpm does not equate to 900rpm.
Jane’s as source is usually about as reliable as Jürgen from the McDonalds dumpster.

Of course, it’s possible, but in this game, Soviet vehicles have a much lower weight rating than American vehicles, so setting it to 11.3 is also acceptable. I’m just providing a “more reasonable” solution because the development team has their own objectives.

No, you don’t need that. Just increasing Bradley’s rate of fire will balance it out.
