Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 1) (Part 1)

Its an absolute hulldown monster, i have nightmares from trying to fight them hulldown because you can do f all. This goes for any Chally you can fight at their specific BR

It has 1400 hp, so the mobility will be surprisingly good. Despite weighing 58 tons, it could be a speedster in its tier. As for the armor… well, it’s basically just ‘Russian Stalinium-biased’ glass-textolite tech XD

it really isnt, its got a huge breech and after iron fist is gone thats it

ok it might be a decent vehicle then but still i wouldnt take it over a chally or abrams or leopard

Trust me, its not a guarantee to kill or disable hitting breech, especially recently ever since apfsds just seems to turn into a beyblade once it hits armor edges

Its standard APFSDS only has about 300mm of pen at 2km. The newer Mk2 rounds are estimated at 500mm at 2km. Zero chance for 10.7 with those stats. To fast, to high pen.

im a challenger main and i do agree but it is so annoying after your ready rack and loader are gone if it gets your loader

i mean the moderna gets 500mm of pen at 10.7 so its not to crazy

Moderna would be a bit higher tbh, if it wasn’t it for being a rare event vehicle

Like Rzi said the moderna has 500 at 10.7, then theres also the 292 with almost 700, and we have the Sabreh/Sabra at 10.0 with almost 600. Challys with 471, the ZTZ with 466 at 10.3, T80s at 10.7 with 457 and so on for other 10.3/10.7 vehicles (im stating all the 10m but u get the jist) And keep in mind in WT the 100m is usually the 2km irl, so its gonna be closer to 430-450 at 2km ingame. Ignoring all its other specs, i dont really see 500mm pen at 100m ingame being much of an issue at 10.7

if it wasnt for it being russian*

This figure is for LoS thickness against a 63° plate. APFSDS performance is significantly exaggerated by testing against heavily angled plates like this, realistically this will put the penetration at around 430-450mm for a flat plate at 2000m. Right in line with vehicles around the 10.3/10.7 area.

Problem with Britain getting the full brunt of the commonwealth is the same one as anyone getting Poland, or Poland as a standalone tree.

Or god forbid one of those “Eastern European” TT proposals…

Poland mentioned 💪💪💪💪💪💪

You are my favorite poster in these threads. Love your optimism. We’ll see Poland one day for sure.

i have a question, what would you do if for some god forsaken reason poland was a russian subtree not that its near a possibility just a what if

This would spark a huge controversy within the Polish playerbase and the rest of the War Thunder playerbase, as it means Russia gets access to a lot of NATO weaponry
