It’s been bugging me for the past couple of months but since when was the Conway a medium tank? I’m pretty sure it was a tank destroyer before and it was classed as a tank destroyer IRL so why isn’t it a TD in war thunder?

Then its nerfed since no more ammo box
Some time ago Gaijin have changed several vehicles classification to better reflect the way they’re being played in game and for ballancing purpose (SP cost).
Here’s what they have to say about that:
“In War Thunder Its simply an in-game classification defining how that vehicle is played or more importantly, its spawn point cost for gameplay purposes. Any player new or old to the game, inexperienced or not can simply understand a glance the general type of gameplay to expect from this vehicle. Its not a representation of real life vehicle classification and is not intended to be. As such, it is entirely correct that such matters are not accepted as bug reports.”
Theres alot of discrepancy with that statement.

Given how APDS is a shatter-fest and both APDS and HESH have no reliable postpen, unfortunately the tank is mostly useless these days, so it almost doesn’t matter much.

Probably same reason as why the M18 Hellcat is a light tank instead of a TD
The stupid thing is that it was classed as TD for the longest time and then they changed jt. But it took them years to change the ELC BIS to light tank even though it has even more of a light tank playstile than the hellcat.
Yeah exactly
They also changed the A30 Avenger into a medium tank around the same time. So annoying.

that makes no sense either, It’s literally got “Self-Propelled” in the name for the stat-card. It’s also a pseudo open top like the M36B2.
I mean, avenger is not treated as open top at all, because Gaijin somehow considers de facto sunshades being able to stop overpressure wave.
that really makes no sense at all, considering that the sun shades have no armour figures
