Wait, you’d want to get M900 on a M60 ?
I want these vehicles to be historically accurate mate.
They use a camo from those times then give it it’s capabilities, unlike the TT variant which they can just say is the standard variant.
Etc etc
Also it would be fine up at 9.7 with it.

I want this vehicle to be as advertised. It says it was a tank used during the Gulf War, I want it to have Gulf War ammunition. For a game that promotes itself as “a realistic simulator” and that you can “relive history”, I expect it to be realistic, accurate, and to have the proper weaponry so I can relive history.

Same as the M1 KVT has a 105 MM cannon while in real life it was a 120MM M1A1 lol-

M60 at 9.7 would suck ass.
exactly man, it’s like L15A5 being identical to L15A3 yet L15A5 was effective way up into the 80s as it’s armour penetration capabilities are substantially better than what we’ve seen in game.
would be fine mate, with M900 that is.
Without it ofc it woudl suck, but a 500 pen round definitely brings it back up to par.
as well as that You’ve M60s at 10.0.

M60A3 TTS does just fine in uptiers, the 120S is a M60 with a 120mm cannon. Plenty of 105mm cannons that do just fine at 9.7, like the Type 16, M1128, Wolfpack, etc.
Doubt.
That’s the M60 with upgraded engine, gun handling, optics and also comes with a better round and an autocannon.
Will this thing even have thermals lol.
Undersell of the month.
I don’t mean the AMBT lol, that thing’s different completely.
So then what are you thinking about ?
Sabra mk1 is also an M60. bear in mind, this thing would be 9.7 not 10.0, M900 is more than solid enough to do what needs to be done.

Oh yeah, the nation everyone pretends doesn’t exist (but we are all outraged by another Spike spammer in their tree)
Sabra also has better armor, optics, gun handling, reload speed and ammo. Plus LWS and LRF.
RISE at 9.7 would just be food.
same reload speed. M900 wouldn’t be far behind the m322.
armour on sabras pretty poor at best.
also the sabra should likely be 10.3 or higher due to the round and LWS alone.
The M900 on an M60A1 RISE would put it in the 9.7 area, giving it hte capabilities to take out higher BR mbts with ease as well as hold flanks easily.
No.
It can actually stop some darts at certain spots, so it has a pretty decent armor, unlike the RISE.
At least the M60A1 RISE(P) should be able to fire the M833, since it’s not entirely clear whether it could safely fire the M900A1. The M60A3TTS, however, might be able to, as it used later production models of the M68 gun. Apparently, the M900A1 ammunition could be fired by all M68A1 guns and by M68 guns from a certain production number onward.
I will always be in favor of giving tanks realistic ammunition, and then assigning them a correct Br. For example, I prefer that developers add the T-54A instead of giving the T-54 (1949) and (1951) APDS and HEAT-FS rounds. Remove the APCBC and Smoke rounds from the IS-2 (1944) and add a post-war IS-2 with that ammunition. Give the Magach 3 Premium the M111 round, even if it increases its BR. Leave the T-55A with only the APDS round, and leave the T-55AMD and AM1 with the APDS-FS round with its realistic 60° penetration.
I always prefer tanks with their historical ammunition and then giving them the correct Battle Rating (BR), rather than tanks given the wrong ammunition so developers can assign them the BR the developers want.

Because premiums are created with a specific BR in mind, and this one is a copy of the tech-tree one barring visual appearance.
balance
Not like there weren’t other versions y’all could’ve used then instead a thematically incorrect m60 without its service equipment. Make a premium at 8.7 but pick something from the cold war instead of desert storm.
Was this a dev item or did marketing pull this one together and just tell you guys to make it happen?
You could have done a pack like you did for the gulf war with the m60 P, radar duster or upgraded pivads, and the uograded sheridan or a tow humvee.
There are millions of options that would have been better than selling a reskin for $60. The other 8.7 premiums are interesting and unique - this is not.
