Germany is mid in ground… they have 1 competitive MBT, the 2nd worst SACLOS AA in the game, their lights and IFVs arent competitive, and the other 3 MBTs are just average… Their air tree is objectively the worst in the game.
So they are the furthest thing from balanced when nations like Italy have, their exact MBT, better Light vehicles and IFVs, and a FAR FAR superior Air tree
Sweden, France, Japan, Italy, Russia, America, China boast on average far more well rounded top tier lineups (and all have more than just 1 good vehicle to crutch on), while all having better Air trees to boot.
So your comparison holds no water, Germany has 1 redeeming top tier quality, the 2A7 and that’s it. Germany’s win rate is only as impressive as it looks because Sweden is always on their team.
this point is even more stupid. Yes this is a combined arms game, but there is a strict air game mode that is independent of ground interaction. So while you can use Aircraft when discussing ground performance, you cannot do the inverse as there is a dedicated air only mode.
That people like you act as if things exist in a vacuum. They do not.
The German ground vehicles play in the same game as air vehicles. I don’t hear a loud outcry from the community of German mains to nerf their 2a7v. Until that happens, your air vehicles lacking against weaker nations ground with stronger air is almost literally the definition of balanced.
matter of fact let’s look at top tier lineups and let’s see. Humor me here.
Germany boasts the following.
Leopard 2A7V (the 2nd best tank in the game)
Leopard 2PSO, 2A5, 2A6 (the very definition of average as they’re all around worse than things like the Leclerc, Type 10, BVM, M1A2s, ZTZ99A, WZ1001, but they’re superior to every CR2, Ariete AMV, VT-4A1. In fact barring the 2A7, most of germany’s MBTs are right smack in the middle in terms of top tier vehicle capability)
Flakrad (the 2nd worst SACLOS AA in the game second to the ADATS)
TAM 2C/Radkampfwagen (Light tanks that don’t even compete with the best other nations have to offer such as the Centauro, Type 16, CV90120, HSTVL)
Puma (An IFV that doesn’t even compete with the best IFVs in the game, the CV9040 BILL, BMP-2M, Freccia, etc)
Then for air they have
F-4F ICE (the worst top tier plane in the game.)
Tornado IDS (not terrible, but compared to what the other 9 nations get it’s worst in class at its job)
and no multirole what so ever.
Germany literally, isn’t even the best if you ignore planes and look at ground. They don’t even break the top 5. So your argument is stupid.
as it stands germany is not balanced in any capacity. They’re worst of the 10 nations in top tier ARB
and they don’t even hit the top 5 in GRB currently if you look purely at vehicle performance (because if you look at win rates they look good due to the fact that Sweden is always on their team).
