So, both are 8.7 boats for now. Same reload, don’t lie — practically the same firepower. That extra 10 mm doesn’t really matter for them. No thermals (gen 2 btw), no drones, no spotting, no turret — one stays at 8.7, the other doesn’t , less mobile then a strv 103 ???
(GRB) Merkava Mk.3B/C/D/Ra’am Sagol 11.3 > 10.7 — for the current configuration. Its enemies are early Leopard 2, not tops. Comparing it to Fuji is just ridiculous.
Alternatively, give it 5s of reload time and send it to 11.0.
(GRB) Merkava Mk.4B/LIC/M 12.0 > 11.3 — worse than M1A1 AIM. Not a competitor to the tops. First of all, 4M was raised to 12.0, because “well, have to get top of the line mbt with maximum BR”, then 4B and 4LIC were sent there with the words “well, we conducted an investigation and came to the conclusion that the Merkava feels better on 11.3, i.e. its deserved BR, than on 12.0, so we are raising BR of other versions”.
Active protection has not been working for several months already.
Why do I think merks cant compete with 2a7, t90 and others:
Plane: A6M5 Ko
Air Realistic
BR:5.3>>5.0
Plane itself its ok just can’t do anything against 6.3 superprops unless enemy is braindead and uptiers is like 70-90% of games.
No, you are biased on your own opinion.
Whenever I’m reading your comments it’s basically:
„I‘m UniqueScopions, therefore everything I say is correct, because I’m the most experienced player in WT and all I say is the truth“
Thats a point but the m82 with 207 mm pen goes through t55 turretface aswell. I like to play them as flankers because of the bad armor and good mobility so aphe is better in that regard. I also think thats the main way to play them effectively. Headon gameplay is not healthy for them imo
Yes, I agree. The other big guns like the Duck, the PBJ, and others were balanced by their bad flight performance (because they’re based on bombers). Apart from a lucky shot, they were close to defenseless if a fighter decided to take them out. But now, this thing shows up (despite real-life testing showing it was too heavy and needed an escort) with a Yak’s flight model (I think we all know how insane these are) and a ton of explosive filler in a relatively small gun. This can and will take out a whole flank in just a few minutes, costs less to spawn because it doesn’t need bombs, and can outmaneuver pretty much anything except a Spitfire. Just ridiculous.
MiG-21MF/SMT to 10.7 (bc it was fine at 10.7 and i played both of them= if the Mirage stays at 10.7 the MF/SMT should go up. if the SMT/MF gets to 10.7 the Mirage 3E can stay for now
J-7D to 11.0 /bc according to GJ the A-5C is just as good) which it isnt bc it so much better
Mirage 3E to 10.3 (bc the SMT/MF stays at 10.3 there is no reaason for the Mirage 3E to be at 10.7)
F-104G to 10.7 /at least the Italian one since its straight up worse than the German one)
Kurnass 2000 to 11.7 or 12.0 (bc the Python 3 are not really saving it at 12.3)
F-104G China to 10.3 (10.7 without flares and only speed is painfull)
Phantom FGR 2 all Britisch Phantoms to 11.7 (they dont have the kit to compete at 12.0)
This. The HOTs are useless anywhere but really long range. Under 200m you cannot even hit targets with them. most of the kills you get are with the main gun anyway.
Reason: It’s just a sidegrade to the Spitfire F. Mk IX, as it gets a bit lighter airframe with a bit less powerful engine compared to Mk. IX. It’s not a excuse for a much higher BR.
