Is that why western tanks often times do better in the hands of the average Joe ?

You’re free to believe what you want.
Someone in a Discord posted a Lincoln Bomber player who was getting a 3:1 K/D air-to-air ratio. They were a very good player.
Does this set of data points mean that you think the Avro Lincoln is a better fighter than a Spitfire? Because that is the logical end-point of your reasoning.
Meanwhile - you look at the average - and the stats are a bit more realistic in this instance…
Which is more likely to paint a true picture of a vehicle’s overall effectiveness? The top 0.01% or the middle-ground where most of us mere mortals play?

confirmation bias, it happens plenty with NATO vehicles too.
Want a video demonstrating it?
The issue is the SM-SV
Not the CAS
NATO CAS planes are now more on par with what Russia has.
Ahem - RU Win Rates were high before the Panstir SV.
Their CAS options are every bit part and parcel of the current issue.

This is the result of lower skill floor.
Lower skill floor fortunately does not necessarily lead to a vehicle being better

The problem is that it was necessary Russia had no air defence system capable of dealing with NATO’s CAS, whereas NATO did.
Not to be that guy but what about pre 11.7 nato
Which Russian aircraft has more than two ‘fire-and-forget’ missiles with a 11.7 ?
Ahem… obviously every NATO main was mass-hallucinating the presence of these then?
RU Top Tier DID NOT NEED overpowered additions like the SV. It was doing very well with it’s existing broken vehicles and Helicopters with 360 degree LIRCM shenanigan / magical energy shield…

In the past yes, now NATO CAS is very much capable of being on par.
Speaking of SM-SV, there’s a really funny counter to it that the US has.

Nobody here disagrees with you that Russia didn’t need the SM-SV, that was a bs addition
Of course they do, otherwise GAIJIN would have to limit the arsenals of NATO countries
It’s not like the Brimstones haven’t already wiped out the normal panstir of history

Yet you are saying that the Abrams is such a bad MBT and so much worse than the T-series.
So how is it a privilage to have access to what you consider such mediocre vehicles?
Most of which have better mobility, better gun depression and a better reload as a compensation for their worse armor.
Just lmao.
How is it favored towards Russian tanks when they aren’t even ranked in the top 5-10 of 12.7 lmao.
Again, you confuse your personal struggles with balance problems.
I’m going to pick a Merkava Mk.4 over a T-series every time any day of the week.

Went from saying Leo and ZTZ are the only competitive tanks to saying Leo and T-series are the only competitive tanks and then bringing up the Abrams as a positive even though they were painting it as supposedly a very bad vehicle before, lol

I’m sorry, but if you can’t do basic geography, you probably shouldn’t be spreading your opinion here
