really good tank:D
Its the abundance of autocannon vehicles + small maps. This thing has no chance.

The problem I currently see with the Leopard 1 is the same one that affects many Br8.0 tanks: there are too many Br8.7 and 9.0 tanks equipped with lasers, APDS-FS, stabilizers, and even thermal imagers. I think it would be a good time to better balance the tanks and separate them, making the current top-tier Br14.0 tanks, and then gradually replacing the Br tanks and adding more balanced tanks to fill the resulting gaps.
Br Compression is the root of dare I say most lroblems War Thunder has.
The maps are to small for Leooard 1. It’s a mobile sniper and can not brawl for the life of it.
In combination with small funky prototypes with fast firing cannons or just IFV’s and SPAA’s with autocannons therr is little yoi can do on many maps.

Yes, keep in mind that the game’s problems are like a snowball effect; one problem is created to try and solve another, and we end up with two. The damage model, penetrations, volumetrics, and small maps all cause many tanks to have incorrect Battle Ratings, which is why this game is beyond repair, since it would be easier to release War Thunder 2.

Ironically I don’t think a single German Leopard has a positive winrate. 36.5% is pretty bad though.
Is it really a fault with the vehicle? It’s very similar to the Vickers Mk 1 and AMX-30. The only downside compared to the Vickers Mk 1 is really the lack of stabiliser, compared to the AMX-30 the only downside is the lack of a 12.7mm. Whereas the Leopard 1 has a lot of upsides to both of them.
The AMX-30 which has very similar performance and is solely reliant on the 400mm HEAT has a 18.1% higher global winrate.
To be fair that’s the stats for the premium the tt has worse stats, still have 17% higher win rate tho and much higher kd/ks as well, that being said the german teams are just terrible at 8.0 you can just look at the stats of the clovis or df105.

German players jumping from slow, highly armored heavies to fast, unarmored MBTs that quickly doesn’t help either.
It really doesnt, when i recently spaded the leopard it was like by myself, the only games that i won were basically me killing half of the enemy team
Good catch, I was thinking of the TT version but grabbed the wrong vehicles stats.
every 8.0 sucks honestly give them stabs and move them to 8.3
Use a 7.7 lineup (recomendation)
sure, but this is just a result of br compression and it isnt a huge difference either. Ultimately the OF-40 is just a slightly more comfortable leopard 1, not a massive upgrade.
are we for real
Ignoring the fact the Leopard is STABILIZED? Also, I hope you are referring to the 9.0 OF-40 because… the 8.0 OF-40 doesn’t have a stabilizer OR APFSDS
none of these tanks get dm13 dart, the of40 at 8.0 has a dm13 APDS which is nowhere near as good as dm23 apfsds

Yeah but that apdsfs has worse pen then the apds.
No, it doesn’t. it’s also APFSDS so it won’t shatter like APDS and it will do more damage than APDS
Less pen though and heat-fs is pretty good.
What part of “APFSDS has more pen” was confusing for you? APDS has less pen than APFSDS. HEAT is also not as good as APFSDS.
or you could just remove them lowkey its the worst br in tanks
let’s not
