the shells is slightly* worse than 3bm60 itself, wich isint the best shell in the game itself, the mobility indeed is good, but its worse that other stuff like abrams or leopards, and armor is made out of 50% weakspot. on top of that it has the russian gun depression limit, and the slower reload rate of the t72
the only thing that the ztz99 has over the t80bvm, or the t90m is reverse gears
would rather not be in the game at all then be in the japanese tree (which again china has nothing to do with it when its an export tank china doesnt even use its pretty much just chinese nationalism that is run on hating the japanese)

It perfectly sums up a discussion and the whole drama about the tank

Well they better suck it up as Thailand is a sub of Japan and it’s a Thai tank

going purely off of stats the only thing the challenger 2 blacknight has over the VT-4 is faster reload (for 4 shots then its the same if not longer then the VT-4), more gun depression and a better APS
the VT-4 is faster, has a slightly better armour profile, better top round, a more reliable rate of fire and a proxy round for the gun to deal with helicopters

It’s better for us to accept that the gaijin will do as they wish. But only as THEY wish.

This would create so many problems, far worse than what we are seeing now.

The following wisdom is not directed at you, but is complimentary of your post.
Video games are not real life.
Technology trees are not real nations.
That very fun civil war reenactment video game is still a type of fiction.
War Thunder at the end of the day is a fiction.
War Thunder has many, many non-fiction elements to it, but as with all interactive computer software games, it’s base is fiction, a type of fantasy, a type of role playing. A realistic fiction, but fiction none-the-less.
Pushing real-life bigotry and hate onto a video game that has never once injected real-life narratives does nothing.

vt4 doesent have an APS, vt4a1 does, the roof isint a weakspot in hull down position, wich you cant utilise in the vt4, and 4 shot 1st stage hasnt been issue for me, plus challenger atleast has spalliners, wich none of the chinese stuff outside of the vt5 have
Yeah, many people fail too see this and assume war thunder is realistic when in fact most if not all ads show it as an action game

comparing it into a western style hull down defensive tank isint the best idea, instead you should compare it to the tank that has same roots, wich is the t90m, and the t80bvm
Gimme my KF41 back, is the fiest thing comming to my mind
Which is generally favoured in War Thunder.
The maps are often best suited for tanks that can assault the objectives.
Sure stick a Challenger 2 in a hulldown position and it can do okay, but then its basically sat AFK for half the match usually. Whereas the Chinese tanks, like their cousins in the T-90/T-80s can push objectives really well.
Still waiting for them to give all nations a Puma equivalent first. Let alone a Puma equivalent with FnF ATGMs
not remotely as good as russian tanks, like i said earlier, only thing it has over t90m, and t80bvm is reverse gears

Speaking of the Puma, surely they will fix the MUSS IRCM, its broken in literally 2 diffrent ways
its not on me bruh. But i think that the Australian KF41 would be more fun for the German tech tree as it gets a better(certainly in the game) aps
anyways, when MICA-VL for japan
