Reason: Sherman II is identical to the American M4A1 counterpart in every aspect, except it does have T45 APCR shell which doesnt give it any benefit and serves as ‘dead weight’. Please consider moving it down or removing T45 shell to make it equal.
The AMX-13 (HOT) is horrendously bad. the deadzone on the missiles is enormous and the penetration on the gun is terrible. the only thing it can maybe to is snipe from long distances, but even that is hampered by it’s awful gun depression. it’s massively overtiered.
Thats hardly relevant given that youre not stabilized and have almost irrelevant armour for 9.0 BR. Any tank can sit in an ambush or snipe if not even better than the 103. In general at 9.0+ everything has laser rangefinders and APFSDS (some even thermals) so the 103 is in no way at an advantage there either. If youre talking about the one at 8.0 then yeah it can go up in br too, but the 103C in this current configuration is in no way a viable tank for 9.0.
they are not the same. sidam he rounds are very slow/have high drag, they reach 2.5 km max, while pgz-04 rounds easily reaches 4km, zsu-23 reaches 3.5 km too without a problem. i tested all of these.
also mistrals are easily the worst ir missiles of all the spaas, if we disrecard chapparal. they have very short burners and bleed their energy very quickly.
i dont think any vehicle should be balanced solely by looking at their statcards, which are very inaccurate.
tested in a private match against a heli which is hovering still, sidam doesnt give a indicator until its closer than 2.5km for example. you can use the apds whilst on an ammobox to get better performance.
statcard warrior strikes again… go use them yourself or fight against them, you will quickly realize how sad they are.
they are bad at any range compared to the alternatives.
iglas/hn6 seem to hit the most reliably against manuvering aircraft for me, but not being able to lead them over buildings/mountains is definedly a negative.
2x Magic I (So aim-9G level rear aspect IRs)
2x of the weakest SARH missiles of that BR
no true PD radar
a fairly poor RWR
Its got some weaknesses.
Id also call it an average FM, not great, but not weak either. Its biggest strength is the decent CM load, that carries it far more than I think most realise and why Id be hesitant below 11.0.
When compared with aircraft such as the F-4E and maybe a few like the Jaguars and F-5s. I think 11.0, maybe 11.3 would be the msot appropirate for it without the Magic IIs.
if it had half decent SARH missiles, then I could see it being higher, but its definetly not on par with a Mig-23ML/MLD without the IRCCM missiles and the non-PD R-530s
Vehicle: Mig-21 SPS-K
Air realistic battles
9.7->10.0
It’s nearly a harrier in terms of missile potency which is already strong but it’s supersonic which solves the harrier’s weakness/limitation. Sure you lose the gun to equip the missile flare loadout but it’s too good in downtiers just running around the map r60-ing you and it has flares if it gets caught off guard by an r60 or aim9g.
Do you relize that the 23mm round despawns at 2400m while the pgz does at 3000m? so yeah your testing method is questionable at best, not sure how you got over a kilomiter of extra range on those 2 while on the sidam you got 200 meters more…
