if we count premiums sqaudron vehicles and event vehicles you get 3 challenger 1s a leopard 2 (almost) a t90 2 good light tanks (ajax and boxer) good spaa amazing cas and the best 10.7 helicopter in the game (g lynx) its just so peak
That vickers MK7 is actually better than a leopard 2 in a few areas, mobility and round cometo mind :D
I’ve not got either the boxer nor the AJAX yet lol but I am gunning for the T90 Bhishma as well.
The Stormer be getting buffed as well.
the G-lynx slams man TBH I hated helis until I finally used it
the vickers should be better than the 2a4 but gaijin gave it the leopards reload on the challengers gun which i dont get and its ready rack is still 3 rounds but yeah l26 and better mobility is amazing
the boxer can be a good vehicle if u play it right and the ajax is way overhated a 40mm at 10.3 is completely fine
Yeah it shoul dbe, for the time ti came about it was one of the best MBTs in existence was it not?
I am working on helis first loo, though rn I’ve taken a bit of a break from the game.
im pretty sure on release it was the best tank in the game.
i just researched the ahmk2 but i cant afford it

I stopped playing France 13.0 GRB a long time ago. I couldn’t stand being destroyed by LMURs and SUs 35 seconds in the game, then steamrolled in the spawn by the entire russian team 45 seconds later.
Now I play 10.7 US vs Russia :
12 10.7 GRB games. 3 games played alongwith Russia, 2 wins among them.
Russia won 9 + 2 = 11 out of 12 games = 91.7% winrate for Russia.
Always the same pattern. Russian players know they have the META, thus they don’t even hesitate to rush the points and spawncamp 30 seconds after the game starts. And they win everytime because of that.
NATO players are afraid to make a move so they stay hidden behind hills, and they’re right to be afraid, because 1 point and click from the russian players at this BR = their tanks are gone.
Quite frankly, I’m fed up playing top tier as NATO and loosing every match. I don’t think the number of players in that game will remain in the long-term, because the game is just too much unbalanced nowadays.
EDIT : BMPT/72 BR Topic - #7390 by SadRIPer . Probably should have hit this totally-unhitable-driver’s port instead but eh, which other biased vehicle except the russians can do that ? Kinda understood the point of this game now. You don’t play Russia, you don’t win.

Ridiculous.
You put a Leclerc/AMX/Type/one of those other weak armor NATO MBT, it’s an instant kill.
It only happens, 95% of the time, to russian tanks. Very balanced game

Bro yesterday I happened to pixel hunt a russian LFP in my KVT while my turret basket was gone and I only had vertical to aim at it.
So difficult, it’s like a 9-5 job to play NATO MBTs with all the nerfs on them srsly.
You can also try to get a 2 K/D in your M1 KVT instead of your Leclerc if you feel like it, that is also easily doable for a decent player.

Why would anyone play KVT when you can play booker that has much better optics/thermals, similiar mobility and much better firepower at same br.

Yeah the Booker is incredible, although in some situations I prefer the better mobility of the M1.
I’m semi suprised that the Booker hasn’t been moved up to 11.0 yet since the VT5 is 11.7.

as someone who relentlessly shits on these tanks everywhere and called them repeatedly shit in videos and such I agree a 100%… Honestly anything but more imaginary or OP CAS additions to the USSR tech tree to balance out the dummy T-80U E1 player swarm
Just a matter of time booker and IPM1 will be at the same br lol
I guess being slower, lacking spall liner and autoloader are the reasons why its not sitting at 11.7, tho it should be 11.3 at least in my book.
The vt-5 look worse everywhere on the paper , gun handling is much worse because it inherited the ru bad genes and ammunition also a bit worse compare to m900, same round used by the zlt11 at 9.7 lol because of that I would imagine it play like the spruts.
I don’t have the vt-5 but I played the vt-4 and already didn’t like it feel.
There is a bunch of stuff that the VT-5 does better than the M10, but it’s mostly a sum of small advantages that shouldn’t mean a whole BR difference. VT-5 has:
- Better gun handling
- Better survivability (spall liners)
- Slightly better turret armor
- Better reload (5 second autoloader > 5.3 second expert manual loader)
- Better mobility
- Better optics for sniping
Ideally the VT5 goes back down to 11.3 and the M10 moves up to 11.0.

Too low? What was I supposed to hit? The air?
I literally hit and disabled the autoloader carousel on that T-80 and set it on fire (with what’s left of my poor M829A1’s post pen thanks to magic ERA). You do know what happens to those carousels and the ammo in them when they get hit in real life, right?
Aiming accuracy stops being the main problem when your long-rod penetrator gets sent to the void regardless of where you hit your target, wouldn’t you think so?
I did not. The round went through and hit the hull carousel and the fuel tank.
This might be shocking news to you, but coincidentally in real life, NATO armor such as Chobham/Dorchester composite arrays also provide KE protection and spall protection (along with specialized ductile steel/aluminum construction which has spall-suppressing properties by the way), all without having to rely on external ERA bricks. However, none of this is represented in the game in a fair or accurate way, even without access to all the classified military information.
Which literally makes you survive engagements you simply shouldn’t, but let’s conveniently ignore that.

Irrelevant : as always, I’m showing the overhaul NATO performance vs Russia :
12 10.7 GRB games + 2 12.7 GRB games played. 3 wins, among them 1 alongwith Russia.
So Russia got 11 + 1 = 12 wins out of 14 games = 85.71% winrate for Russia.
It’s like that since months, probably years.
What’s the point of playing this game NATO side if you’re gonna loose 80% of your games ? People will leave this game at some point, it is not balanced.
EDIT : pretty sure their “official” winrates are rigged. 50% winrate for 10.7 NATO ? Nobody believes that.
