Ordnance QF 25-pdr on Carrier Valentine 25-pdr Mk 1, Bishop

Not having the muzzle break is a good thing imo. It justifies also adding the Sextons at higher BR, which do have muzzle breaks enabling them to use the higher charges.

This is a must have addition needed yesterday, i’m waiting for this vehicle, and considering it’ll probably fall under the “tank destroyer” tag, and britain doesn’t have a single tank destroyer before 2.7, (the alecto is a market place vehicle and doesn’t count) this would be more than welcome.

Actual round table, even better is there’s also an APC not just uncapped AP.

needed, Gaijin please, give us low tier derp gun

+1, no turret armor but still a funny box with a cannon.

We have both chassis and the gun (found on French L9059 iirc) in-game, so it’s literally up to modeling a turret

it’s not a turret, it’s a fixed superstructure (it can’t rotate) it’s like a stug, and it’s not really lightly armored the surperstucture front is 51mm thick, and the hull front is 60mm, it’s pretty much resistant to auto cannons and weak guns, it’s pretty decently armored to be fair. I can’t wait to have this thing

Eh, I mean, even most reserve-tier guns will cut through it, therefore it’s not like something new (StuG III F will be more survivabile with the same armor thanks to the low silhouette)

But yeah, still a nice thing to have, especially if they give it a good reload speed (like 3-4 seconds, like that of StuG III A, given it fires slugs and not APHE)

I would expect something closer to ~7 seconds since many of the higher performance 85-88 mm guns have around 7.5~8 second reloads.

There was this experimental APHE round. There should be more data on it somewhere here.
I personally don’t see as much need for it. 88 mm AP should be more than sufficient for tank killing at such a low BR if Gajin would bother to correct solid shot performance.
