With the constant spaa vehicles being added to Russia, leaving the rest of the other countries and the BMPT, Russian tanks lacking turret baskets(and other countries), t90s and t80s having unrealistic side armor and more, its still not being solved.
Does Russian bias exist?

Do you either want all vehicles to have turret baskets or no vehicles have turret baskets?

The main reason that Russian vehicles are way overpowered is because they are good on paper and defiantly not irl and they probably overly exceed their power dramatically.
There has just been too much of late to pretend that there isnt at least some bias going on.
Su-30SM2 has been given clear strengths over other aircraft at the same BR for “reasons”, such as having a faster scan rate than ECRS, despite primary sources giving ECRS about 3x the scan rate of IBRIS and the recent FM buffs are questionable. Likewise I beleive the double R-77-1 racks are dubious at best
Not too mention KH-38MT not even being real by all accounts.
Soyuz is the best battleship by far
SKR-7 and AK-225 are some of, if not the best coastal boats
Which of course, the soviets were known for their navy…
BMPT has rendered an entire BR bracket unplayable to anyone in anything else. Soviet tree overall is very strong, with many vehicles with questionable BRs.
MI-28NM is probably the strongest heli at the moment, with the only properly modeled ATGM
All they need to do is add the T-14 in a vacuum and they would be the best in every single gamemode. Dreading what they have planned for Infantry.
Sure theres a general bias towards premiums since no one buys a shitty premium (looking at you FFA P-16). But the existence of a premium bias doesnt invalidate the existence of a russian bias.
This whole terminator facade is just down to it being highly popular (cash cow for gaijin) as well as laziness in modelling and balancing (ahem T58). Im willing to bet it will be nerfed or moved up by next month
Ask yourself these 2 questions, there absolutely is russian bias its just not used so russia gets to be the best ( in general) like some assume but its needed so russia can compete at top tier. The terminator is just the latest and most obvious story
It is but in a game with BRs that have the job of balancing, putting in fake stuff just to make one tree competetive is still bs towards everyone else (especially if you have a history of overtuning said stuff). I get that Gaijin doesnt want to deprive their biggest playerbase of a top tier tank but its still frustrating that everyone gets artificially held back or ru stuff gets artificially strenghtened just so garbage like the T80 and 90 can stay at the same BR as a 2A7V
