[Legwolf]

sigh welp…we can hope for something interesting tomorrow I guess.

[RytisLTU1]

Nice 👏

[Bringer_Of_War]

List proved fake already 😂

[Deathmisser]

Will this have the pakistan flag ?

[Legwolf]

Disappointing devblogs so far.
USSR meme tank and yet another T-72 variant…
Can always hope for the coming devblogs to showcase some IFVs for China, British IFVs and light tanks, Japanese SAM, new jet for Britian etc…

Early days right now, but immediately beginning to feel dread lmao

[不是很能抗压]

Pakistan use Al-khalid, it can a event/squad/prem vehicle.

[efetenekeci]

As expected, no French AA or Italian Helicopter

[Deathmisser]

Yea we do have the VT-4 popped up somewhere in the files iirc

[不是很能抗压]

Yeah, Pakistan has there own version of MBT2000 and VT4, the basic version can be in the tree.

[不是很能抗压]

Here some information of it.

@不是很能抗压

VT1:

MBT-2000/VT1, VT-1A

The MBT-2000 was the result of a myriad of Chinese tank developments starting in the 1970s Most of the MBT-2000’s processors were part of the failed 122 series of prototypes and what later became the ZTZ88, while also taking heavy influence from the development of the ZTZ99 during the 1990s.
By the year 2000, the design of the 90-II had been finalized This design, with some local modifications, would begin production in Pakistan by HIT, while a further refined version would be put on the general export market in 2001, known as MBT-2000 Due to restrictions in Ukraine, the version using domestically produced power systems was later referred to as VT1A. Therefore, it can be inferred that China’s term for Ukrainian power systems should be VT1.
VT1 and VT4 adopt a different armor layout from ZTZ96 and ZTZ99/99A, I will show the images later.

@不是很能抗压

The armor layout of VT1/VT4(Same layout but different materials), more similar to Leopaed 2 but not ZTZ96 and ZTZ99/99A.

[Legwolf]

It’s not even cope, these are just very normal and unexciting vehicles. We have what feels like a billion examples of the T-72 now, with one more on the way. And a Heat slinger for the USSR I doubt people will even use beyond the meme factor.

China (my non Nato main) is in dire need of IFVs or ATGM carriers.
Britian is in dire need of Light tanks, IFVs, competitive aircraft

Instead, we get…well…the same as what we’re used to. I cant say it’s all that exciting to see more of the same vehicle each update.

[SnakeMantis007]

I hope we will have some low tiers stuff for WW2.

[涵霖]

considering its reverse speed and 1200hp engine , its hard to say its a t72

[alizeaqua]

In fact ,all the samething between 90Ⅱm and t72 just 7.1s,updater t72,what a classic “ Russian rumor”，make fake “anscetor” on chinese tanks helis and airs to feed their poor vanity， lamao

[_ROBO_official]

Tier VIII ground vehicles Pls.
T-90MS, Leo 2A7 series, M1A2 SEPv3, VT-4 and so on.

[dotSHINI]

not likely for this patch

[02ded]

no

[Favnirbane]

I mean, his approach to the penetration tool was wrong, but so are yours it seems. What is the distance between the tanks? I assume you are using the 3bm60 aswell?

Furthermore, when in war thunder are the attitude and the elevation of two opposing tanks totally equal?
