@Smin1080p please give us ( or just me ) the gaijin wisdom/insight at why yet again, ANOTHER RUSSIAN VEHICLE receives, not only a better round, but the extra most best-est round for their entire tech tree, but not go up in Battle Rank.

Meanwhile a EVENT VEHICLE gets a crappy round thats worse than 9.3 tanks get and goes up a full 1.0 in BR? What was the point of giving the m833 round to the AGS, when you could have gave it M900? What was the point of putting a event vehicle up a full BR?

I need to know. We the plyers NEED TO KNOW Why this Russian bias continues on into 2024.

I never understood why both 2S25 variants sit at that BR.
for the 2S25 the nearest comparable vehicle is the TAM 2C:

  • While TAM is faster, 2S25 has better Hp/t ratio;
  • Both have no armor to speak of;
  • Turret traverse is similar;
  • TAM has 2 degrees off elevation advantage;
  • Both reload at 7.1 sec, if TAM has expert crew with all the relevant crew points applied;
  • 2S25 can swim, TAM can’t;
  • 2S25 has better firepower in both APFSDS and Gun launched ATGM;
  • 2S25 lacks thermals, so does the RAD90 at 9.7 in AB

So why does the TAM 2C sit at 9.7 AB and 10.0 in RB, and is the 2S25 at 9.3 in both modes.

Compared to the 2S25M:

  • M variant loses reverse gearbox, still having better Hp/t;
  • most stats stay the same;
  • M receives thermals;
  • gets 3BM60 (+150mm flatpen), and tandem ATGM;

all this at same BR in both modes as the TAM 2C.
