As is well known, the German 7.3 Br is one of the weakest Br in the entire game. Compared to other HEATFS primary ammunition, RU251 has a relatively slow rate of fire. Furthermore, the damage of HEATFS is inconsistent, resulting in a relatively low kill/death ratio. Reducing its Br is the solution. If we get a Br 6.7 or 7.0 Ru251, people will be more willing to buy it.

Ru251 is at 7.3 for a reason. It trades protection and shell selection for mobility. Same HEAT-FS shell and reload time as M47, with one of the highest HP/T for its BR.

Sometimes M47 can kill more with chossing M82. Speed is precisely Ru251’s best advantage. However, heatfs shell can’t help with more kills. It performs even worse when facing the side of a tank. Therefore, it would be even better to give an APHE.

6.7 is to low but 7.0 ? yes, why not.
M56 too with 1.5 seconds faster reload and is 6.7. Yes, i know no armor and poor gun handling but can fire APHE, is small and very fast. Meanwhle RU have some armor and is turretet plus MG-3 machinegun but cant fire the APHE so 7.0 look more fine.
Honestly the only reason why RU is 7.3 is because is a German tank. Gaijin for “some reasons” try to destroy and nerf in every possible way the acces to movility for Germany.
No, it was broken at 6.7 and then 7.0, so now its 7.3 which is fine as it is now.

I have it. It is perfectly fine where it is. One of the most mobile tanks in the game, at any BR. If you are dying it in, you should probably be using its incredible reverse abilities to get out of harm’s way while you reload.
