This doesn’t change anything, this just lists the power of the engine @ 3000 RPM which no one argues against. It was standard to fit all Maybach HL 230 engines with a centrifugal speed governor that limited the engine to 2500 RPM and at those speeds, the output is around 600hp. As per the driver’s handbook for both the Tiger Ausf. E and Tiger Il as well as the Panther driver’s handbook and secondary literature from historians.
nowhere in your source it is stated that the governor is active the whole time (applying your logic) and also in my source you find that it has 4 reverse gears and not 1
I want to dispute the increase in the battle rating for the MSC tank,this tank is skill dependent and also it is poorly protected from enemy shells,As an owner and fan of the MSC tank, I can say that the French setup will be incomplete if only the MSC from the French branch moves to 11.0 I ask the administration to consider my complaint
and your source only says that it can only go 3 kph in reverse
it does due to the nature of how a centrifugal speed governor works
it means it is directly attached to the drive shaft infront of the gearbox
you cannot turn of the governor
here from the Panther manual:
Seriously, the coastal fleet urgently needs significant decompression, just as the bluewater fleet received in the last update. I am disappointed by the lack of consideration given to coastal vessels, as coastal battles continue to suffer from abysmally terrible balance, which can harm player retention in the long term. For this reason, I am putting forward the following individual BR proposals for most coastal vessels on my mind.
Firstly, starting with PC-451:
Mode: Naval AB & RB
Vessel: PC-451
Change: Keep at 2.0 (instead of 2.3)
Reasoning: PC-451 has a major weak spot that severely undermines its survivability. Her ammunition racks are located in the bow and can be easily detonated by incoming fire. Because of this, she should remain at 2.0.
Mode: Naval AB & RB
Vessel: PT-565
Change: 3.0 → 2.7
Reasoning: I question the logic of placement at 3.0. The PT-565 is nearly identical to the PT-200, which sits at 2.7. Both share the same armament, armor, and crew size, with no significant gameplay differences. PT-565 should therefore be lowered to 2.7 to align with PT-200.
Mode: Naval AB & RB
Vessel: PT-811
Change: 3.7 → 3.3
Reasoning: I question the logic of placement at 3.7; PT-811 is nearly identical to PT-810, which is at 3.3. Both have the same armament and crew size, with no meaningful gameplay differences. PT-811 should be reduced to 3.3 to match PT-810.
PLEASE move the standard 90mm M26 Pershings back to 6.3
Mode: Naval AB & RB
Vessel: USS Candid
Change: Move USS Candid’s position after LCS(L)(3) in the tech tree
Reasoning: USS Candid is considered to be an upgrade to the LCS(L)(3) in terms of survivability, crew count, armor, and detailed damage modeling. The LCS(L)(3) relies on a simplified damage model and is more susceptible to being quickly destroyed. USS Candid should follow after LCS(L)(3) in the tech tree to reflect its survivability.
Mode: Naval AB & RB
Vessel: USS Tucumcari
Change: 3.0 → 2.7
Reasoning: This is a hydrofoil gunboat without torpedoes. Against destroyers, it lacks any reliable means of disabling heavily armed opponents. Its BR should be lowered to 2.7.
Mode: Naval AB & RB
Vessel: USS Flagstaff
Change: 3.0 → 2.7
Reasoning: This is a hydrofoil gunboat without torpedoes. Against destroyers, it lacks any reliable means of disabling heavily armed opponents. Its BR should be lowered to 2.7.
I think you two are both wrong. Aim-120s are quite good, but so is the R-77-1. The Aim-120s only weakness is sub 2km fights, but that can be solved by a bit of setup.
I’d still take Aim-120s over PL-12s because of their longer range and more reliable long range performance.
Has it?
That’s a strawman argument. Also, both the F-15E and Su-30 deserve to be 14.3 if we are “decompressing” up to that BR.
yeah
Mode: Naval AB & RB
Vessel: USS Hoquiam
Proposed Change #1: 3.3 → 3.0
OR
Proposed Change #2: Keep at 3.3 but move the spawn to the coastal area instead of the bluewater fleet area
Reasoning: USS Hoquiam is the worst-performing frigate at her BR. She lacks torpedoes, is slower than most destroyers, and has weak main guns with large frontal dead zones. She cannot compete with destroyers in the 3.3–4.3 range and should either be reduced in BR or given a coastal spawn.
Mode: Naval AB & RB
Vessel: Krischan der Große
Change: 2.7 → 2.3
Reasoning: Slow, fragile, and under-armed. A single 88mm gun is insufficient to handle common threats at its BR.
Mode: Naval AB & RB
Vessel: VS-8
Change: 2.7 → 2.3
Reasoning: VS-8 has a significant weakness - guns. Its 15mm guns perform poorly at long range and overheat & jam easily. Being a hydrofoil boat, its handling is also tricky, as grounding the hydrofoils results in catastrophic beaching.
wowie
Mode: Naval AB & RB
Vessel: VS-10
Change: 3.0 → 2.7
Reasoning: VS-10 has a significant weakness - guns. Its 15mm guns perform poorly at long range and overheat & jam easily. Being a hydrofoil boat, its handling is also tricky, as grounding the hydrofoils results in catastrophic beaching.
Mode: Naval AB & RB
Vessel: Bernau
Change: 3.3 → 3.0
Reasoning: Lacks torpedoes and cannot effectively damage destroyers in the 3.3–4.3 range. The Strela-2M ammo rack in the bow is also a major weak spot and can easily result in detonation.
