The leos are literally just a better abrams in every way besides a 1 second difference in reload

In aspects such as?
I… have to step aside from this.
While I can entirely disagree with either @SPANISH_AVENGER and @_Renzo en on this specific topic, I still believe their takes come from more than reasonable amounts of experience and overall perspective to be as valid and debatable.
The problem arises when someone has lots of experience in-game… with one or two nations at best and are entitled to very opinionated views on balance.

And you know what all of these except for the 2AV have in common? They all have pretty significant changes made to them compared to the rest of their family, which influences the reload. Let me reference back to this bit:

Equally as important as speed, armor, survivability, spall liners, shell pen, working blowout panels, better hull down, i can keep going.

So an unnecessary buff justified via documents… Yet for anyone else reloads are a balancing decision… How strange.

It seems like it’s time to buff the and Challenger 2/3.
We’ve been waiting for too small Ready rack fix for years.
Also, I’ve been waiting for years for a fix to the Chieftain’s slow reload speed.
Gaijin did not fix it in the name of balancing.
How long will your submitted proposals be left unattended? Two years? Five years?
We should stop using double meanings and treat everyone equally.

This is both realism and balance dictated change. I dont see how these two would contradict eachother.

Better hull armor, better turret armor, better post pen survivability, better agility, better thermals, technically better shell, spall liners, better blowout panels, etc
Sure, but to hide ones biases behind selfproclaimed veil of objectivity is just dumb.
1/2. 3 actually has the right ready rack which is surprising.
But yes, its stupid ready rack is being used as an artificial nerf

Happy to see these tanks get their reload fixed after years of reports.

I really wish gaijin would stop cherry picking when they care about realism and when they care about balance. A whole second reload buff for all T series for “muh realism” but then make the NATO turret basket for “balance”

So extra hull armor on 2a7v and sepv3 is not a significant change?
Doesnt the WZ share an autoloader with the ZTZ99A?
Wasn’t the point of the autoloader mechanism to bring it up to par with the disadvantages of having a human loader? The turret basket is just another extra nerf to the Abrams and Leopard 2

Cool changes I guess, now please correct the Challenger 2’s ready rack.
Its been incorrectly only 4 rounds for like 5 years now, despite us providing primary document proof that it should easily be 20+ rounds
The Challenger 3TD also has a worse reload than the Challenger 2s, for no good reason.
