It is what it is. Heavier for some more AOA. Even if in tylical War Thunder fashion it only dumps speed more instead of truly flying differently that is still acceptable.
People made a big drama show about SMT being a brick but since it got adjusted it’s just fine regarding flight performance.
Because it’s just worse than Su-27SM.
Less hardpoints.
It’s heavier.
Worse radar and RWR.
It has MAWS but it doesn’t do much.
F-14A (Late) and Aim-9Ms finally being added to the F-14B would so amazing…
When I played it both had the same amount of missiles. I think the radar also did not work properly.
Custom ammo belts. keeping the same ammo belts over the years as a ‘balancing’ measure when some guns have gone from god-tier to useless, back to being amazing, down to being middling is an absolute crapshoot. Just let people choose their dang ammo and firing order. this “Balancing” stuff means nothing when weapon effectiveness can change on a whim to gaijin’s desires.
RIO’s being implemented to the game with mouse function, this allows twin seat jet fighters not just have a second pilot, but have him actually DO something.
Increased BR to allow more F-4E block variants into the mix without facing AMRAAM slingers

Suggested it not long ago, pending :)
Belgium T.13 tank destroyer
B1 & B2 was based on a Vickers Carden Loyd 1934 artillery tractor chassis with 51hp engine and mounting a FRC 47 mm Model 1931 anti-tank gun and placed facing rearward to save space.
Armor consisted of 12mm of steel.
The B3 variant is actually a new design but the name was kept same with B3 suffix in order attract less attention & was based on the larger Vickers-Carden-Loyd Light Dragon Mk. IIB chassis featuring 88hp engine.
The TD is now of a more light-tank layout with the gun turret facing forwards featuring the same 47 mm Model 1931 anti-tank gun. Armour is now 13mm and the turret is open at the rear typical of light TDs.
And yes, Germany captured the B3 variants and used them as Panzerjäger VA 802(b)
(*might never see this in WT, since Gaijin is too focused appeasing the top tier crowd)

T-34/85 prototype featuring the 85mm S-53 in the older mod 43 turret.
You must have been tiny and stupidly stong to be loader in that turret
I just want an enhanced naval ec mode as a simulator stand in for boats, with submarines being added alongside it :(
Iraqi custom ZSU-57-1
Single 57mm S-60 cannon on a T-55 chassis
Object 101 R-39
One of the amphibious predecessors of the PT-76, armed with a 76mm LB-76T cannon, from 1949.
Object 137 “T-54” experimental model No. 3
Had the same 100mm LB-1 Cannon from T-34-100. Uniquely it had two fix mounted hull SG-43 MGs on either side of the hull operated by the driver.
And somehow, against all possible odds, Gaijin still managed to find the most boring option in existence for a new top tier Chinese AA.

German KUKA M12 IFV prototype to meet Swiss SPz 2000 requirements.
Marder 1A3 hull with E4 2-man turret featuring a 30mm MK30-2 cannon.
Object 775 turret + T-10M hull
T-10M hull was already proven and Obj 775’s turret & weaponry needed to be tested, hence…
