teams and weak enemy teams would carry him up anyways
He would most likely play like an amoeba with any Soviet/Russian MBT, he wouldn’t know how to use it, he wouldn’t know how to position himself, and he would die like a sack of potatoes.
T-80U/3BM42
2A5/DM33
M1A1/M829A3
would have made a wild update

I don’t even have the first APFSDS shell. I’m playing on a stock tank.
You also forgot to mention because of the implementation of this new round with a 4mm increased penetration value they decided to buff relik 55% in effectiveness. lmao

it’ll never come. and should it even come?
today i learned most players are good at war thunder. thats news to me!
Just because someone can hover their mouse over the LFP doesnt mean they are good at the game.
i mean considering the fact that we dont alway fight against standing targets at point blank range i would say that consistently hitting t series hitspots in most situations is not trivial.
Balance. Do you want every Russian K-5 tank dropped in BR? If you bothered to think before crashing out you would realize that the single thing Russian tanks have going for them is their armour, if you introduce a round that negates a large part of that protection they are going WAY down in BR.

That’s not what he said. Relikt’s resistance to long rod armor-piercing rounds has been increased from 1.7 to 2.25, and its resistance to HEAT rounds has been increased from 7.75 to 9. Correspondingly, Kontakt-5’s effectiveness against M829A3 has been reduced from 0.8 to 0.5.
We’ve already investigated those claims & they’re wrong.
You’re omitting data.
The change only impacts side ERA when angled.
AKA when the tank is angled ~30 degrees - ~50 degrees as a primary example.
This change has no impact on good - meta MBT rounds as they’ll just over-pen anyway, & the change is a minor fix to the under-performing nature of side ERA.
What does not change:
1- Front ERA remains identical.
2- Side ERA when shot flat remains identical.
Only for K-5 tanks relikt tanks are another story, i have one and they barely protect against regular sabots, also when im playing m1s i mostly get killed by leopards and other nato MBTs anyway
M829A2 was already good enough

I created a separate topic for this.

Enough lying here. You haven’t investigated anything. Stop justifying Gaijin’s bias. Why are you doing this?
No, It is actually nice. Perhaps, US wins rates will actually be better than the Russians now.
anti ERA properties are western propaganda.
You really seem to have a thing with Vertical Angle on huh? lol
