There is a plenty of vehicles with this round as the best ammunition. At the same time it’s the worst APFSDS at its BR. What’s more, a lot of people say that its nerf is wrong and the round should be back to how it was before it. What is the truth? Should M735 be that bad?
The main issue in my experience is post pen damage. The pen is good enough to go through any tank if aimed properly.
The post pen is really bad, and often can’t one shot tanks that would be easily one shot otherwise, such as Leopard 1s, or other similar tanks.
The pen is bad enough to where shots that would have been good for literally any other dart become bad…

There are far worse rounds at 8.7 such as L15A3 and 3BM25.
Of course M735 is among their ranks, and I’d say it’s the L15A3 of 9.3 for example. Not as bad as 3BM25 for each’s BR, but still pretty bad.
This shell is just bad. Probably 2nd only to the shells used on the t-55/62, which are the first production apfsds. 9.7 vehicles that has m735 as the main shell need something better

when will you disgusting shill understand that m735 is the best round many tanks get ?
@The_White_Terror
Why are you people coming out and insulting Americans for being “disgusting America shills”? Let alone today…
Seriously… I get that you’re mad M735 is better than Russian APFSDS at the same BR, but come on…
M735, despite being the best round for many tanks is still not DM23 equivalent; and me having known this since it was introduced to the game.
It’s at best 3BM21 equivalent.

Which BR are you talking about?
8.3 and 8.7, where Soviet’s best round is 3BM25 for the 100mm guns.
3BM21 is probably the good round for 8.7 T-62.
Yes, but this thread is about 9.0+, not those BRs. It is good at 8.7, but awful at 9.3.
Well M60 TTS uses M774.
Israel uses M111.
Britain uses C76A1 or better.
Italy uses DM23.
The exclusive tanks 9.0 or higher that uses M735 at its top round is Type 16 cause they don’t have DM23 or C76A1 as an option, and XM1 because it’s 9.3 instead of 9.7+.
XM-1 is as if you made a T-62 as fast as an Abrams while giving it thermals and a better turret drive.
