bmd-4m → 10.3 would be “balanced” as its hugely better than the zbd-04.
~2x depression with hyrdalics, much better hp/t, better atgms, almost 2x turret speed, but at a cost of having a 1 second longer reload and 4 less atgms.
after 160 matches with the zbd i have come to a conclusion that the apfsds rounds are worthless: the they deal much less damage than the apds rounds with a minimal increase in penetration. they are not worth bringing along.
but the zbd is still an excellent light tank at 10.0.
BMD-4M:
Slightly faster
Faster turret traverse
Only 4 ATGMs.
Hydraulics which you will often not use.
ZBD04A:
LWS / LR
Darts (20 mm more pen the bmd/bmp APDS rounds, and far less likely to shatter)
More armor
(Doesn’t say there’s a reload penalty on atgm load time)
Oh yeah, definitely should be 10.3 for the bmds, definitely. Okay Pangloin.
You do understand the primary weapon of these vehicles is the 30 mm right?
i agree and as i already said, the apfsds rounds are inferior to apds rounds.
39.3 hp/t vs 26.2 hp/t
“Slightly faster” bruh…
definedly a skill issue. hydralics are always worth using on nonflat maps, also the turret ring is angled 3 extra degrees downwards already without using any hydralics.
laser warning system is nice, but not really needed at 10.0(cannot face UCAV). bmd-4m also has a LR.
why do you need the extra armor? its not like zbd is tanking any autocannon rounds.
bmd-4(m) 100mm reloads in 5s, zbd in 4s. basic information. makes little difference as almost nobody has sub 5s reload at 9.0-11.3.
Playing the Beglit, cv9030, and bmd-4M today, I really haven’t been able to do the best.
But. Given the fact I was keeping up with a bmd-4M in a cv9030 that was stock, (granted I was bait for three of his kills) I still don’t get why the cv9030 & Beglit constantly 1 tap vs the bmds and bmds don’t.
By far the Beglit has the current best cannon id say, I will have to see what the cv9030 with darts is like
Granted I do still believe the CV9030 should be a 9.0
Vehicle: Shenyang F-5
BR Change: Ground Realistic Battles 9.3 → 8.7
Reasoning:
It is functionally identical to the MiG-17/17PF in grb, both of which are 8.7 in grb, it lacks guided munitions typically found on most 9.3’s and only has 2 250kg bombs without a bombing computer.
why? you argued that the event bmd-4 is supposedly better because its faster, but it cant access the armor package at all. so its suddenly worse? choose already
dying to 50cal is not a huge issue. also the armor package makes 0 difference frontally, its only on the sides.
