M3 Bradley mixed belts + aimcone

The M3 Bradley already has unrealistic aimcone and spread, why unrealistic belts too?
It takes 1.2s to fire a 4 round belt, with M791 the HE round turns the Bushmaster into a slow burst fire gun, with 0.3s gaps after 3 effective rounds.
This 1 round makes you have to peek longer, messes up 1 taps, throws off ranged aim in thermal sights, and makes you have to shoot the same spots you’ve already hit. The 25mm HE round has only helped me once out of 44,000 ground targets destroyed

Ammo is sometimes changed for balance reasons, although I don’t see why a full apds belt isn’t added. They really need to update the Bradley as it should have superior accuracy and damage compared to Russian 30mm, although it doesn’t

Well, otherwise Russia would suffer.

Fix it

The launcher needing time to deploy then stabilize is unrealistic, the hitbox is unrealistic, the ammo belts are unrealistic, the aimcone is unrealistic, the 3 crewed Bradley is unrealistic

+1 Probably should of put a poll to show how many people are interested in this change

+1, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8QZ47JYokM this quick video showcasing the Bradley IRL and its features would help make the in game version more realistic

The BMP-2’ / BTR-82’ / BMP-3’ / BMD-4s’ APDS belts also have a HE round in them, but I will admit that their 4/5th APDS isn’t as egregious as the Bradley’s 3/4th APDS, especially considering the Bradley has a much worse firerate compared to those IFVs.
I’d rather have all of these vehicles receive full APDS belts rather than only certain ones.
Same can be said for other autocannon vehicles, particularly at the lower BRs. The AMX-13 DCA 40’s AP belt is also only 3/4th AP, and the Lvkv 42’s APHE belt is only 3/4ths APHE too… and only half for its AP belt.

Exactly, I wouldnt mind if BMPT also got full APDS belts, but those vehicles wouldnt really notice a difference, only slight improvements in TTK and damage. But for the M3 Bradley its a big difference and also more realistic, there isnt a reason for it to have dual feed currently since all belts are mixed.
