Call everyone from the old PUMA thread. Celebration time lads, it took us like 2 years or something? Now, doing the math, it’ll take us 60 years to get all the fixes, way to go

The main takeaway from this is that we’ll have to wait another 1-2 years until they even consider un-gimping the Leo 2A7V’s hull (and turret) armor. That’s if they don’t hit the last acknowledged bug report on that matter with the classic “not a bug”.
Yeah knowing Gaijin’s irrational hatred for anything German we’ll probably have until the end of the year for them to fix the 2A7 because they probably felt like it. It took them 2 years to implement AHEAD ffs.

And that’s why I love the F-4F. One of the best 10.7s in the game rather than an eh 11.3.
It will be at 40 % of its RL potential
Be happy if it is released with any weapons installed
I’ve already found a use for the new Phantom.
I will explore them and leave them there.
And then I’ll wait. And that is until the Eurofighter arrives, which is safely positioned directly behind the KWS.
And then I will use the Phantom with its research bonus and suicide bombing bombs to research the Eurofighter.
And that will certainly work in 2 years, because by then the Phantom has suffered enough until the snail shows a little mercy and after a year the Phantom got its Aim L(i) and slipped to 12.3 in the BR.
now that we have 2A4CAN at 11.3 with 589mm penetration, L2PL should get a new shell.

Wait, 11.3? Isn’t it a somewhat equivalent of A7 in terms of armor?
No, we don’t know why they said that in the first place. It might be referencing of some armour components, but the armour is not equal to the 2A7V.
The real A7?
Nowhere close they just say it in the Promo
does this mean the gepard (1a2) might get modern ammo as well?? (APFSDS for self defence and F/APDS for anti-air use)? even if it were pushed up in br, bc the roland and roland-but-on-a-truck do not look amazing rn, I’d take it.
I don’t think they are implementing the actual shrapnel yet, it’s just a really weak HE-VT as far as I can tell.
Will someone volunteer to shoot someone stationary with it in a custom game and then watch the slowed down replay to proove it?
I don’t think so, there have been discussions about this in the past but the Gepard doesn’t have the coil induction programming in its muzzle to actually fire AHEAD rounds, but since this is proof that they can make AHEAD work we might see the Skyranger 30 or 35 :)
Yeah I was thinking about this, if anyone has the dev server installed they should try and see if there is actually shrapnel, but my guess is that it’s the HE filler that is doing the damage.
Why would aim9l boost the f4f straight to 11.3 when it’s still completely inferior to something like the viggen d or 23ml? I could see 11.0. Hell, since its still 11.0 in sim, it could use them.

clearly f4f with aim9l is op ? lol
it’s not like its a truck with jet engines anyways
In a downtier it would be the worst thing you could hope to go against
Its 12.7 the same as the tornado f.3 with aim 9m and akm 120b
yea, it would be a stretch to have gaijin give it AHEAD, but seriously where is our (even) high(er) velocity ammo that the 1a2 upgrade SPECIFICALLY allowed it to use (I believe new velocity sensors at the muzzle are related to this)
