Remove APDS belts from SPAA

doesnt it get apfds at least? i imagine running slow rof with those might be quite effective

No, it has the same apds as the BMP-2 on russia which is like 82mm pen, if you run slow rate of fire people will turn their tank slightly and you will start shell shattering. Thats a dumb idea unfortunately, trust me i tried originally lol

Those tanks, and others are more or less immune to the BMP-2 APDS

Not really? I have no idea what you struggle with when they are some of the more easy vehicles to kill imo.

desert warrior is 10.0. marder and type 16 just arent

Yes, they’re easy to kill side on (thats not my point; the BMP-2 is good at flanking) but frontally it struggles. In most engagements, you’d face their light tanks against yours, not side on.

it really doesnt against marders and type 16, i easily kill them with bradley let alone bmp2.

It seems you’ve had a completely different experience playing the BMP-2 than I have, lets agree to disagree

Against the light tanks you listed i can assure you it doesn’t, the Marder maybe but one hit to the paper turret and the ammo explodes taking it out. Moat IFV’s are blinded so again i dont know how you aren’t killing them with the better BMP. Again it may just be you ate incredibly unlucky but the BMP-2 is good at hunting other IFV’s now BMD-4 and BMP-3 from over 500m AP-T cant hurt them but apds can. Imo all the soviet BMP’s are under BR’d. Why should the BMP-2 be .3 from the BMP-3 with thermals and a barrel fired missile and LRF?

Because of BR compression

Great then we can agree they should go up to 9.7 since they definitely shouldn’t be 9.0 and the BMP-2 can stay at 8.7

Have you tried playing Puma for example? You insert preferable insult

Puma at 8.7 was a nightmare(probably why gaijin over BR’s many LT’s now)Puma at 10.0 is meh, fix the issues with it and i think its a solid tank but the ammo blowout taking the tracks off fills me with rage lmao.

Doesn’t this only happen with the spike one? I haven’t played the normal one in a while.

Idr its been so long lmao

Nope, happens with normal one as well, but it started happening after they added the spike one.

Man that’s sad. Already bad survivability made worse.

One of the even more accurate one is the main cannon of XM800T, I find it is actually a better AA than most SPAAs as not even modern jets will survive diving on this thing or fly past it. If we have an SPAA with this calibre of accuracy and firing rate at 7.0 I would be totally into it lol

Nope, maybe once I finish the Russian tech tree, I’ll grind Germany instead

No, they shouldn’t be moved until Gaijin adds higher BRs and decompresses the BR range.
