Dm63 would add nothing
The ship that took confirmed 11 torpedos and 6 bombs with her sistership having took estimated 19 torpedos and 17 bombs
Behemoths that thanks with some documents we know have one of the most complex and intricated survivability compartment systems that immediatly could self-sustain damage like almost no other can, treated like paper in game…
Yamato and Soyuz situation truly is a stone of shame of this game and his “historical decisions”…
Oh yeah its definitely a cool ship but we already have a ship of that class in the UK tree but still no R class which the russia tree has had for coming too 2 years now
Not as a Premium though >:C
I want it as a Premium to grind the British tree, hahah. I can’t be bothered with Nelson and its 13 business day reload speed.
I remember that the difference between the DM63 and the DM53 was only an improvement to the propellant, optimizing the safety of the ammunition.
I heard that it DM63 would actually take off like 10mm penetration ingame because of the new propellant
Honestly, Challenger 3 (TD) could perfecly a great 12.7 tank IF Gaijin fixed its reload to 5 seconds like all other Challengers and gave it the DM63 shell it was presented with, removing the tank’s main weakness (ammorack through the mantlet).
Adding all CR2s their missing hull spall liners would help a lot as well.
There is alot of stuff they could do to fix the CR2s but they wont as they think its already fixed from the one dev blog they did about it which actually didnt do anything
i hope they have an interesting vehicles that they did not tease yet, soo far these devblogs are boring
Literally all the difference is lmao it’s irrelevant for the game
Anymore news for the day?
Shouldn’t take anything off to any meaningful different maybe 5 or less
(I’m just a suggestion moderator guys, I know nothing more than y’all)
Visually it seems like no CM yet, we’ll have to see for when it’s fully added to see if it will get them. Very interesting! (it’s obviously not finished yet).
The prototype IRL didn’t have them built-in, so they would have to added according to the planned designs.
going by that looking at margins it would be max 6x mav + 2x maybe 4x bombs? (if even because of rocket exhaust)
Apologies for running late. I’ve been busy this past week.

Latest “educated guess” lists:
Remember, these are not official or confirmed. The information also contradicts official statements in some places, and there have been no further updates since this list was initially posted last year.

DO NOT ask community managers or forum staff to comment on leaks or “guesses,” they can’t comment on such things. Official statements hold the most weight!
Didn’t have any crazy upgrades as far as I know
