I found you defending it by bringing up other just as OP vehicles, can’t even remember your own words?
Oh look, that’s me admitting BMPT was dominant back at 10.3 and totally agreeing with it going to 11.3.
“If BMPTs at 11.3 were indeed so dominant”
The same laddie that seemingly said he’s apparently fine with them moving to 12.0 now, after weeks of getting demolished by people in the BMPT threads, of course.

“They don’t look really indimidating”
Downplaying much? :)
Searched through the forum for topics regarding 2A7V and best I could find were threads with ID 56810 and 58302, with former being much more popular. The most liked comments in there basically were in line of: “well, deal with it” .
I found a bunch, it was usually grouped with the 122B+ on top.
So when 2A7V was, by your own admission, by far the most dominant vehicle it got very limited attention with massively conflicting views.
Funnily, I was there for it, so I know it didn’t get “very limited attention” lol.
Or this forum is inherently biased towards the west due to it being a mostly west-oriented place to moan ?
Thank you for your opinion, it’s wrong.
Loads of western vehicles will fly under the radar for months and years, while every single USSR addition for which it isn’t glaringly obvious it’s DOA will be talked about and discussed like it’s second coming of Jesus.
Nobody is trying to claim non-OP vehicles are somehow OP, in other news, cars found crossing a bridge.
Su-27/SM were not really talked about, Tunguska was to a degree back on the old forum, when it could see through time itself and lock targets through the ground, T-80B/U and a bunch of others aren’t being talked about as OP either, and they’re not DOA either - BVM is sometimes brought up from what I can see, but i feel it’s PTSD from its days of dominance back in 2021 & 22.
On the other hand, the vehicles/addition that are genuinely broken/OP, are talked about - THAT’S LOGICAL (maybe not to you). Mi-28NM w/LMURs, LDIRCM (across the board), BMPT(s), SM-SV, the Kh-38MTs which ruined ground RB just as much as many other things, if not more.
We had SLM threads before LDIRCM helis made it irrelevant, for example, it didn’t fly under the radar. T58 (which you really liked bringing up every time you were defending the BMPT) didn’t either, TURM III had its fair share.
I don’t play air much so I can’t speak for how “West” vs “East” is exactly performing there currently, but Rafale for one was VERY TALKED ABOUT, so was the EFT, so were the F-16s, F-15E, the GR.7, even Tornado’s w/LGBs were a pretty common topic before Pantsir made them redundant (well it was mostly rusmains complaining about them tho).
So, I don’t think you, of all people, should be bringing up “biases”.
