They probably mean the time fuse anti air shells.

Which only the BMPT (not T-72) has and aren’t proximity fuze.
I’m just trying to avoid some misinformation/misunderstanding being spread
They only mentioned the BMPT and not the -72. Yeah, they aren’t proxy. From the context it’s pretty clear which shells they ment but i generally agree with the correction.

BMPTs aren’t one of those.
Right it just killed the entire br range both above and below it until its most recent moving up and is still highly prominent in gameplay for a country that is now boasting a 63 percent win rate or something like that at top tier, but its doing awful. Of course it alone is not the reason for Russia’s high win rate but it does make it a lot easier when that 30mm farms SP to nuke the map in an SM2 thirty seconds into the match lol.
But for real the Bmpt is an insanely good vehicle and to say otherwise is kind of just ignorance.
Top tier RU has 54% WR.
BMPTs have 53% WR.
BMPTs were insanely good at 10.3.
At 11.7 they’re fine but definitely not OP.
I mean they still kind of are? You have a 30mm with sniper accuracy and high component damage basically assuring that if you can’t outright kill something frontally you can instantly disable them before they get the chance to react, and even if they do react you are survivable enough to take the hit and keep fighting (Do to a range of issues some specific to the tank and others not compounding together). Not to mention it has four spammable missiles(with good control) with insane penetration values and the ability to cause overpressure even if they don’t penn the tank. Perhaps the worst thing about it is that it makes getting into cas insanely easy and quick in which case you will then pretty much nuke the map within two minutes of match start, which is really just how top tier feels at this point especially playing against russia.
Not for long.
With all you said here BMPT at 11.7 is far from being some monster, which is even proven by it’s global stats.
Yeah but most tanks don’t necessarily reflect how good they are by global stats which has long been an issue with balancing in the game something we all seem to acknowledge until it comes to mentioning such and such tank is overperforming. The Bmpt is a monster I mean its literally hold w and left click to win kind of vehicle.

If it was that easy I’m sure it’d show in the stats, like it did when they were down at 10.3.
Drastic drop in performance after BR changes tells you one thing, it’s far from former glory and now it has significantly less impact on games than before.
Post 11.7 bmpt’s kd is a little pathetic now.
It’s performing about average now

their Mrad is getting increased from 0.8 to 2 oh sidenote shouldn’t apply to any other 2a42 or even 2A72 btw
Worst penetration for toptier autocannon but okay, and it’s apds instead of apfsds
800mm for an atgm is insane now?
Spoiler
Mind you these are all at lower br’s with ig more insane pen valuess? (jk spikes suck)
with what? like you said yourself, it’s not a light tank so it doesn’t get scouting
yeah no

Everything is ‘nerfed’, but that doesn’t mean it’s good, best all rounder tank (bvm still favourite)
The aim thing isnt here yet so its not affecting live gameplay.
Notice how I said component damage and not penn but it can go through the front of most mbts somewhere.
800mm on a tandem head is pretty damn good especially when it doesn’t need to penn in order to overpressure.
Its ability to damage tanks and components repeatedly while also taking a good amount of hits allows it to quickly farm sp to spawn a plane and being a lower than top tier vehicle it has often a reduced spawn cost.
It literally takes less than two minutes to run across half the maps get a cap kill and assist and spawn a fully loaded mi-287nm or su-30sm2.
Doesn’t help almost all of its ammo being hit won’t detonate.
Ah yes this is the best way to balance the tanks, anyways we should move up the french 5.7 vehicles again to a further 7.0 br now because players are still doing good in them.
Wallet warriors still think they can just W to victory when uptiered to 12.7 with BMPTs
‘Oh it was overperforming?’ Okay move it up
‘Oh it’s not overperforming anymore and is quite balanced?’ Idc move it upto 13.0
Less pen = less damage, not to mention you can only pen the abrams frontally at short range (and maybe ariete idk)
It’s below average for even 9.7
Welcome to every missile in warthunder?
No idea what that it
Congrats on knowing what autocannons are, other light tanks are just superior
Maybe 20 sp lol, not to mention that virtually every light tank is at a lower br (hello cv90120 centauro and vt5)
so can you with every other nation

BMPT/72 run a 53.12% WR in 2.85 million games combined.
The next 5 most played tanks in BR that make a comparable no. of games combined pull barely a 49.26% WR combined. Note that 2 out of those 5 are Russian who directly benefit from BMPT/72.
So…vs what exactly BMPT/72 performs average?
…and you don’t wanna pull GSB stats where it plays on one side only…
