Do you have a screenshot to confirm? I’m not in-game rn
Pretty sure the reload goes up if the commander dies as well
Besides, the T-80BVM’s speed is mainly used to play a more aggressive style of playing rather than just sitting in the backline
Yet, because it’s an autoloader, you can’t reload the moment it’s damaged and your reload is consistent, meaning everyone knows exactly how long your reload is and whether they beat you or not
It’s 7.8 stock, 6.4 full Expert, 6.0 full Ace
It should but it doesn’t affect the reload time as much as the loader ofc
You can still shoot off the round in the chamber + the autoloader literally acts as armor / spall shield for the ammo…
Its more aggro, but once you’re caught out you’re out of options, western MBTs can retreat to cover instead. Much more preferable than having to rely on how well the enemy can aim
And? I could say the exact same thing with NATO tanks now that more of them have a turret basket leading to moments where they can shoot out the autoloader but you shoot out their turret basket
Good, I was assuming full expert at least
Not to mention the cannon breech is smaller compared to NATO MBTs
The internals are more cramped, meaning spall can cause much more damage on penetration and you have less crew to sacrifice for survival
But honestly I don’t really see the MBTs are a problem, I see the CAS of Russia as the issue with Top Tier
Then again, the spall is inconsistent half the time due to the ERA you shot through if shooting from the side eating some of the round meaning less spall and the autoloader acting as a somewhat shield against spall eating more of the spall
Agreed, CAS (not just Russian) is the main problem of top tier

When a feel sad, i play russia 11.3, is a instant win, i had 73% WR, i love it /s
I just think Russian CAS is more dominant because the SPAA backing them up is better than what Western countries have
Don’t get me wrong, the SLM and NASAMS 3 for example are really good but at times feel limited because the Pantsir SM-SV just outshines them in most cases due to the TKB-1055s being able to intercept so many munitions
It’s easier to use.
I personally would argue the aesa euro for example is better than the Su-30 for grb.
More munitions to use, brimstones on that FM are great for anti-heli and will overwhelm even the new pantsir and spice 250s are also good.
The “James strat” is also surprisingly effective with the euro

They’re more limited due to LDIRCM completely countering them imo.
