Define concrete proof? Because if you mean nothing short of a written confession by Gaijin CEO, it will never happen
Bias is another argument entirely but you can’t deny Russian FAVOURITISM is obvious.

Concrete proof is documents proving so, viable and sources with no legal or that shares interests with Gaijin Entertainment, this is concrete proof, something that shares inside information proving that it does exist, that information publicly shared is false or misleading.
I don’t know really, USSR is not my focus, but I’ve noticed some actions that doesn’t really means favouritism (i.e. outdated vehicles, when other nations got better units earlier), regarding the ERA ‘eating’ ammunition I’ll throw the fault in the old and buggy Dagor engine.
You can develop a good game and keep a old engine up to date however Dagor wasn’t made to handle nothing more than airplane spars and aerodynamic, there’s a huge difference in the behaviour of ground vehicle damage in Enlisted to War Thunder.
just like anything you say at this point
you literally have never experienced any of those tanks limitations hence you have no idea on how they play
you have never experienced a fuel tank explosion, no ability to go hulldown, no reverse speed, horrid gun handling and many other vehicle-specific caveats russian tanks have
btw your argument is literally “ru tanks are the strongest”
you don’t back it up with stats
you don’t back it up with your game experience
whatever this thread is going down anyway

Sure theres a lot of “russian bias” stuff thats just the engine limitation or bad modeling like good old stalinium just being a combination of volumetric sheanigans and Gaijin being not that great at modeling rounded armor.
But you gotta admit that stuff like the KH38MT, Soyuz, Igla vs Stinger debate and the highly targeted additions of realistic modules and mechanics for tanks does absolutely show favouritism

Indeed, I can’t agree more. Regarding the Kh-38MT, I tried to contact a photographer involved in military equipment specially in Russia however I got no response and I probably will to try contact again. With the objective to have any better at clearer information regarding specially the Kh-38MT if it’s a existing equipment, only a designation or something else.
If is the case of Kh-38MT a actual thing, I believe Gaijin must have labeled it wrong, the most realistic counterpart to the weapon in-game would’ve been Kh-38MTE, which does have more on-line information available not only from secondary sources but as well from primary sources.
I don’t think that’s a making up from Gaijin’s part, some secondary sources mention the exact same specifications as in-game:

Its literally not lmao. I´d take SEP V1,M1A2,M1A1/IPM1 over the top T series lineup any day. Same for Leos.

I dont think anyone doubts the general specifications of it. People doubt the existence of the IR seeker and if the SU30SM should have access to it.
It really isn’t the best MBT, nor is it close, it’s the combination of russian vehicles and weaponry that is oppressive, not the tanks.
In fact i don’t even think the T-series to be top 5 anymore
- 122A/B/B+
- 2A7V/HU
- Type 10
- ZTZ-99A or Merkava Mk4M
- M1A2 SEP
That depends wildly on the player tho. The average player will not perform well in a Type 10 but will probably do better in a T80 or 90

short answer is no
long answer is not yet/we don’t know
ldircm helicopters are currently the most broken thing in the game and Russia has 2 good ones
the tank to tank combat has not changed at all in the latest update so that remains unchanged
and the addition of the Buk m3 might allow russia to start spamming the KH 38 MT when more people get the buk so that the russian planes only have to think about SAMs and not other planes. i don’t think so tho the other new SPAA (if they get fixed chough* chough*) should be good enough to count the air threats

Id argue that we dont know yet is the only correct answer and even when we get the september Statshark stats theyll just show a trend and not the actual answer
op said this on the 24th of September: At this point, it feels like Russian teams are steamrolling NATO across the board.
the average win rate of Russia from the 23rd to the 25th is in the picture i added not the entire month so far.
they are not steam rolling at all (yet) is what i am trying to say.
Its like this every update Russia gets the coping Bias Buffs and everyone else gets a nerf except for its Butt Buddy germany. Literally shot a T90m flat on its side and didn’t do anything. The winrate will be at 70% again and the Russian mains will cope.

And he’s a one lifer…
I actually progressively do better the longer a match goes on
I was playing Sweden this morning and Russian teams do feel very strong at 10.7, but maybe its just because everyone is getting off work in Russia right now lol. I will say though 10.7 for NATO is some of the worst for wallet warrior, 2 tank line-up, level 20 spam since there’s so many premium options at this BR.
I did the same thing but i did 0 damage and it happens almost everytime i shoot one on a perfect spot it still doesn’t kill them or damage them

i don’t think much was changed at 10.7 from before the update the only important change i can think of is that the FlaRakRad and the ADATS were moved to 11.7 so you can find them in a full upteir and the BMD-4m2 at 9.7 that you can meet in a full down tier

No nothing has changed, but I could see the sweats wanting to grind their BUKs so they’re all hopping in their TURMS and 2s38s. I also notice not many people play AA at this tier since their only options are Rolands which take half a braincell to dodge. That is probably my only frustration with NATO teams right now, lots of 1-death leavers and subsequent lack of AA.
