Panther F
6.0->5.7
ground RB
simply its the worst of the 6.0 panthers its not very strong compared to a panther G it trades turret armor for a range finder which only works on long range maps which you rarely see it would help the 5.7 line up of Germany immensely
because the APDS on the Gepard exists, and is balanced by only having 40rnds, unlike Falcon/AMX where the APDS was never used in the HSS 831L, and had it in the entire belt
well you see
they are moving the F-15s down to 12.7
so your argument is now invalid thanks to stupid balancing decisons made by gaijin
Yeah im fine with all that, but only if they moved it down in BR. A non-radar, non-tracking AA with no AP belts have no reasons being at 8.3
this is really long overdue
the cast hulls are weaker than the welded hulls due to not be able to angle
panther F and worst in the same sentence
Gepard
Ground Realistic
8.3 → 9.0
The Gepardy vehicles have been far too strong for far to long now, both with overperforming APHE, and facing off against 1940s and 50s play with radar gun AA. Same should apply to all the Gepardy vehicles.
Panther D
Ground RB
5.3 → 5.7
The Panthers A and G are now at 6.0. The Panther D offers the same protection, improved mobility, but a harsh reduction in turret traverse. It should not be able to face 4.3 tanks, many of which have no chance in a frontal engagement, which becomes even more severe at range. At 5.3, it is functionally a heavy tank with excellent mobility when fighting in downtiers.
Top tier should go to 15.0, with the 14.7s going to 15.0 and the current 14.3s going to 14.7.
yeah i honestly never use it compared to the panther A and chad G model
VK 30.02 (M)
Ground RB
5.0 → 5.3
Although certainly weaker than a normal Panther, its firepower makes it very dangerous, and against many 4.0 and 4.3 tanks it is still far too powerful. Most 75mm and 76mm guns from 4.0-4.7 cannot reliably fight it, while its armor and firepower can easily wipe the floor. Like the Panther D, it is functionally a highly mobile heavy tank when downtiered.
The standard BR-471 is horrendous as it’s just uncapped AP
Unless you decrease the reload to <10s it will still be worse than all of the other 6.7 heavies
nah it happens when they refuse to move up su 27, su 33 and su 30 mkks
That is already showcased by the stats.
It’s one of the most stupid changes they’ve made in a long time.
It’s good enough. It still has 200mm pen and overpressures.
AIR SIMULATOR
J-8B 11.7 → 10.7
Overall a worse F-4E. Worse RWR (SPO-10, same as MiG-21MF for example), half as many radar missiles, and taking them means you’re also limited to only two IR MSLs.

Ground Realistic
8.3 → 9.0
Same as all the other Gepardy vehicles. Been over performing far too much for far too long.
AAM-3 vs 11.7’s :p
