PT-16/T14 mod should be 10.7 or even lower. It have a very good 4s reload, but

  • Have mid penetration compared to another vehicles in 11.0 (T-90, as an example, have 3BM60 with 578mm of pen)
  • Dont have basically any armour, can be easily pen by any tank on its BR
  • Dont have systems such as smoke grenades and thermal vision
  • Frequently gets uptiered to 12.0, facing heavily-armoured tanks with better rounds and gadgets

Or they could add the layered armour to the turret given that the armour was the ENTIER point of the T14 Mod. turret to begin with. If they didn’t want the armour they could have used literally any other prototype turret.
Seriously, what’s the logic of adding the one specifically up armoured turret, but without the armour?

Or instead you could learn how to use the tank.

you forget no armor and no smoke, such thing that makes a really big difference

how am i suppose to use it?

Its the fastest tank at the BR, with best-in-class gun handling and a great reload. Its not a tank that’s designed to soak shots, don’t get hit.

PT-16/T14 mod. will not be lowered in battle rating unless something is removed in exchange. The 4-seconds reload, unique laser-rangefinder mechanic and mobility higher power-to-weight ratio and with better optics compared to the Leopard 2A4 pretty much makes it a very lethal sniper. If wasn’t for the armor, could be easily make to battle rating 11.7 alongside the Type 90 main battle tank that has advanced composite armor than spaced internal plates acting as “armor” and vehicle’s popularity.

what do you mean with unique?
the LRF seems pretty normal to me in the test drive

PT-16/T14 mod. has a automatic correlation rangefinder, in-game works just like any other laser-rangefinder but instead it doesn’t trigger laser warning systems.

Type 90 doesnt have good armor either lol

I’d honestly prefer they model the armor correctly and move it up to 11.7

Does anyone know if it was ever planned to have smoke?

If it was, model the turret correctly, add smoke and move it up to 11.7 it seems kinda useless 11.0 due to lineup.

T14 mod. is a early barebones Leopard 2 turret, it didn’t had smoke launchers, according to Andrey Btvt, it was a testing module that predeces the Leopard 2AV which had those systems:

Interesting. Maybe the proper solution would be to introduce more 11.0 vehicles for Germany. It and the Puma VJTF are just sad at 11.0. The closest SPAA is 0.7 down. Soon I guess you could have 2 different Puma VJTF (the upcoming premium) to get a 3 vehicle line up but that honestly just seems sad.
