Russian Teams Steamrolling NATO - Top Tier is Broken Again?

su34 can use it and there is only 1 pic of kh38mt on the su34. rest are questionable. the only other aircraft that can use kh38 is the su35.

There is a vid of Spookston unloading the new event vehicle into the side of a Russian tank hitting the ammo carousel time and time again. Yet it didn’t cause an ammo explosion, he had to actually take out the crew.

VT4A1? is bad?

Having got the mk3B and C I don’t feel the merkavas to be ^that bad tbh I need to wait and see how 12.0 plays out O.o

Change of scenery? I Mean abrams with a 6 second reload woudl still be one of the top dogs in game.
Though personally some decompression would solve most issues, I don’t think it’s very fair that any 10.7 comes across the likes of the M1A2 or A1 HC slinging M829A2 (I use the 11.7 lineup fairly often)

CR2 rn is in a sorry state of affairs TBH , ariete I’ve not got yet but at rank 6 so not long.

I mean if we got more accurate armours, reduced reloads for what crews sustain not just hte initial 5 round burst or 10 round burst they can do incredibly fast, then it would be idea, as well as that I don’t mean the fact tank crews can’t sustain fast fire rates for prolonged periods, I mean in general they’ll eventually slow down to around as far as I’m aware about 6 seconds!.

That could seriously change the engagement times, match pacing etc.

While irritating to face I don’t find them that bad RN what’s annoying the life out of me is the sub 5 second fire rate that’s been swept across nations, stuff like CR 2, or any russian / chinese auto loaders bar the T80s are absolutely slaughtered in general

Not bad, just offers nothing special.

Still my fav Chinese Tank tho.

Oh no, rusians lie in their documents? Oh, that one never happened before, ah shucks!

not like lying, but rather just wrong
but yeah, that’s basic

The rusian propaganda/military overestimation/assesment etc. Works on a simple principle of every hardcore authocracy.
BS by a thousand farts. A little overestimation here, a little missed detail there - repeat 500 times and you’ll get yourself an “analogueless” weapon of complete domination wherever you seek to dominate whatever you seek to dominate. Kinda how genie wishes work you know. A fast, tank with a powerful cannon and armor that your enemies doesn’t have, but it dies if a fly sneezes nearby, frying all the crew in the process. A fast firing, cheap autocannon with powerful round, but it never hits the target. A heavily armored helicopter with all the modern systems and sensors, but it can’t sense ATGMs and stingers.
You see what I’m saying.

Refer to my answer here, the technical document is correct from a mechanical standpoint.

100% the cycle goes

Russia is strong best army best hardware 1
Russian kit is used in a war and found be poor 2
Russians convince everyone, it’s export versions vehicles it’s poor deployment it’s using them incorrectly and Russian equipment is infact the best 3
RUSFED announce new super models T-14, Su-75 and S-500. 4
NATO analysts believe that Russian super weapons are a threat and we need to take Russia seriously! 5
Return to step. 1

In every conflict that has involved Russian hardware and NATO/Western hardware Russian hardware has lost decisively.

The fact we have people who believe the T-72B3 is a superior tank to a CR2 when Russia have lost 1000s of them.

theyre right, superior single-use rocket

‘That’s not an ammo explosion - lemme show you what a REAL ammunition explosion looks like!’

T-72 designer, probably.

I mean mediocre armor, mediocre gun handling, mediocre firepower, mediocre mobility.

I don’t see anything good about it besides it having an APS.

Honestly afther they changed the reload from 6.7 seconds aced to 6 seconds aced and especially after they changed the reload again to 5 seconds ace the Merkava Mk.4s have become quite fun.

Only sad part is their fun strengths keep getting nerfed.

True, but an abrams with 7 seconds reload would have one of the worst firepowers of any NATO MBT while being average at everything else.

IT has good mobility man, arguably better than arbams bar in reverse, which is 17 rather than 36?

The armour is also quite nice , the issue is the surviveability of the damn LFP leaves it open if you over extend.

The Chinese round ain’t that great at all yeah.

Mines are still 6.3 I think, one is expert other is just a level 100 crew.
Looking forward to the MK4 tbh, as well as getting the raam sagol.

Yeah ; but for it to have a 7 second reload others would also need a reduction. So leos 6.5 for example, etc etc

Btw this means rate of fire with target acquisition and observation included. Not the mechanical value in sterile conditions like abrams tankers)
Kind of self defeating argument for you)

Wait until you find out how they measure NATO rates of fire for documentation.

Yeah the Mk.3s also got buffed from 6.7 aced to 6 seconds aced, which was much needed.

6.7 ace reload at 11.3-12.0 was just pure pain though back then.

Top tier is indeed broken,dying at airfield to the SPAA shouldnt be a thing. But it is,i died to CLAWS.

it did not, the idea was tested during WW2 by Australians

there are no pics other than the one that shows a clearly mockup missile on the airframe, and as such the image does not confirm anything
