Would be nice. Hopefully they also fix some tanks with the hypothetical release of rank VIII.
The META currently is a combination of good mobility, gun handling and both good hull and turret armor. The BVM and 122 are meta because they tick all those boxes.
The US, Germany and probably China can easily be propelled into the meta by additions of more modern MBT variants.
However France, Britain and Israel, while they will likely never be as meta as the earlier mentioned nations, need serious fixes/reworks to how their vehicles work in game to at least become closer to the meta.
For Japan the Type 10 already fills a specialized role no other MBT really can. Just a few good fixes should be enough.
Italy is in a bit of trouble. No amount of fixes will ever make the Ariete meta at absolute top tier. They can only hope for a Leopard 2.
If they stop nerfing Leclercs (reload time, turret rotation speed, general speed/mobility, armor, lack of shells…) because of “stats” that are better than other nations, they can follow the meta and stay competitiv against others.
I mean the Cr3 we have seen now is not even close to the final thing, is is just a new version of Cr2 LEP. Cr2 hull with a little different turret and a smoothbore gun. We could see it soon.
Black banded AIM-9Ms on Gripens.
There’s even Pythons equipped on Gripens in Thailand.
People underestimate how many different IR missiles Gripen can use.
