How would the T100 be 7.7? Their plan to move the M163 to 7.3 has already shown that there is no magical minimum BR for radar SPAA.
Also the T77 is the chaffee with 6x .50 cals. How would that be an IFV?

To add to this, the M163’s radar is so useless I don’t see why there’s so much fearmongering over it going down in BR
I usually just keep it switched off because the lead indicator is rarely correct and it constantly loses track

considering m163’s radar’s performance, I don’t think it can be called a “radar spaa”

We need devblog, leaks or br changes update at least, it’s getting too boring.

I dont think it has been leaked, but the vehicle has been passed to the devs.
Yeah… i really hope they listened to my suggestion and give M1A1 AIM KEW-A2 (tungsten equivalent of M829A2); otherwise they are putting it at the same BR as the HCs which are now getting M829A2.
And I don’t want to replace AIM with HC, specially now that they fixed its camp and it looks so neat xD.
Furthermore, it’s the historical shell choice.
And I really hope they decompress more than 12.0. 12.0 does virtually nothing.

The M1A1 HC (and clickbait) getting M829A2 is an interesting decision in general, as it makes the base M1A2 and the SEPv2 pretty much redundant.

Yeah, I wouldn’t do it.
They do it to raise their BRs, but… why not just not raise their BRs and keep them with M829A1? It’s the Gulf War signature shell anyway.
Only AIM should get KEW-A2 and go up because it’s its historical shell choice and the higher BR would be warranted with the new shell + HD thermals.

Never mind about devblogs, earth history 6,000 years ago caught my attention lol
lol I’ve just checked wikipedia for what happened on this day in the past and learned that in 1950 US Shooting Stars by mistake attacked an aerodrome in the region where I live.

An actual AA would be SPYDER with SL-PT4. But I would much apperciate those pythons on the things they are intended to be on. Baz 2000 is now on par with the 15C, but I felt the barak II(F-16D one) can get some extra taste.

Gonna see if Bimini Road was a dockyard to see if Noah’s Ark fit’s in it
Oh, I mixed then. T77 is fine around 3.x
This will be an IFV
On the case of T100, it will be a better SPAA than M163, so it can place at 7.7
And there is the T85E1, a less-protected Skink but it is fully US made.

Why do you think that?
This is what compression causes. There are like 5 Chinese MBTs with the same top round with small differences.
It is not an HE magnet. It can fire shells to a larger area thanks to multiple guns. And it is protected against .50
Well, okay T100 certainly has better resistance to explosions/shrapnel, and is .50 cal resistant at least to the hull (we don’t know about the turret)
However, the M163 fires 20mm explosive shells at 3000 RPM. The spread is pretty wide, and you can make it bigger by uninstalling “adjustment of fire” modification
Meanwhile the T100 only fires 15mm API bullets out of it’s 4 guns at a total of 2400 RPM, this isn’t anywhere near as lethal against aircraft
IDK how much we really know about the T100’s radar, but it’s probably comparable to M163’s, meaning it’s not very good.
I believe a fair BR would be 6.3 or 6.7 depening on how good (or bad) the radar is
Edit: I meant T100, not T77

If the subject is around 6.3 ish, I guess another option would just simply be the M163(CS), without the tracking radar.
T77 has 6 guns…
Specifically, .50cals, not 15mm
A difference of 1.3 BRs (from 7.7 to 6.3) just by eliminating a tracking radar that hardly works at all?
Hmmmm no. The Vulcan is the only thing making the M163 as good as it is
The track radar is maybe worth 0.3 BR
