IA 58 Pucará should not be 4.3

This thing has x133 Mighty Mouse rockets. A HUNDRED AND THIRTY THREE rockets with a penetration of 290mm at 4.3!

Think of the poor KV-1’s and Churchill tanks! They don’t have a roof mounted KPVT.

Apparently it even has a good FM with minimal energy loss even with ground pound loadout…

It just introduces unnecessary timescale powercreep into the aviation that have historically managed to reign it in better than the other two modes.

This would open the flood gates for more such under BR’ed vehicles from the future to wreak havoc on the OG WW2 granpas.

Put it at least 6.7 or higher but before the 8.3 radar guided SPAA’s like Gepard.

Yeah sorry but if it needs to go at 4.3 it just doesn’t fit the game and should not be added until it has a place.
No matter the flight model, that kind of 1960s-present day weaponry has no business being anywhere close to early ww2 tanks in BR

F4U-7 is 6.0 with a comparable rocket load, so it’d have to be lower just by how fat it is.

Just because someone sucks at aircraft production does not give them a license to pawn early WW2 tanks with technology from the future.

Besides MM’s are better than SNEB’s and it got more of them.

EXACTLY.
Now can we apply that to M44, M55, M109, PT76, most HEATFS rats around 6.7, etc

…On a much bigger, slower plane.

Also, this isn’t inherently bad. It just fulfills a very different role.

Jets and post war aircraft shouldn’t face WW2 tanks nor aircraft. The MB-326 or whatever it’s called is absolutely toxic in Sim as is the StrikeMaster etc.

I mean things like Mauler and Intruder are probably fine at 7.0-7.7 but this thing is just from another era.

Completely agree, this thing is totally toxic at 4.3 GRB.

On the other hand, every GRB game I have played in that BR range has had at least 2, often 3 players taking it out, so I guess from Gaijins perspective it’s mission accomplished. Balance has always been very distantly secondary to $$$.
