Wheres the CVRT tanks like sabre, scimitar and Scorpion?

Sadly there was no 30mm variant. Stormer AD was only built with a 25mm cannon. A 30mm was proposed with the Blazer turret, but never built.

Currently the vehicle does not have scouting.

what br is it? 10.3 would be far from it’s aa capabilities, and uk really needs a potent 9.3 spaa (conveniantly the BR the stormer AD should sits at according to what it offers, aka stingers, and poor aa/ground firepower with its gun, just like the pgz04). Tell me the dev didn’t make the mistake of keeping it around the lav-ad br just because if its armament (that lacks hydras and the gau got nerfed)…

Very sad news. With Scouting Stormer played quite balanced considering the gun ammunition was half as much as the LAV-AD and considering the absence of Hydras

This gunna come with the long overdue fixes for Stingers? Like perhaps giving them their missing 20g pull?

Very nice, hopefully this is 9.3 alongside the updated ZSU-23, its capabilities are almost perfectly matched

Developed for the turret fitted to Stormer but perhaps never was actually fitted.

See the original proposal thread -

You are forgetting Britian tax. No chance its lower than 10.0 or 10.3

it was 10.0 in the dev server

This needs to be at 9.3.

I love their soundtrax!

Maybe 7.7?

Spoiler

JK

without the missiles, probably 7.7 ye

Well i certainly feel dumb now that it has been announced. Thanks for proving me wrong gaijin :/


30mm was built. Count the barrels, this one has 4.

25mm that’s being added has 5.

It was not built with a Stormer unfortunately. This is not on a Stormer chassis but a different vehicle.

So, in the release iteration, stormer retained the scouting. And that’s great.

The true sad thing is that, the Stormer HVM still needs fixing. I did a bug report on it recently including some potential fixes. I’m glad this has come to the British tier tree, but PLEASE fix the HVM! - it used to be a viable SPAA platform but now its basically useless, and you’d be better off using the OSA, or the Strella that is coming in as, despite them being a lower BR, they are still far better than the Stormer HVM because they can accurately engage and destroy aircraft without the worry of getting a “hit” and nothing else. In this bug report, I attempt to shoot down a recon drone, but its literally impossible and not even a single missile does so much as a “hit” on the drone. In the comments I did however post a video, of a HVM engaging the same drone as in the game with no issues, destroying it with one hit. Most players have removed the HVM from their line up due to it being simply inferior and mostly useless in comparison to the other AA in the game, against anything but helicopters (which still sometimes only score you a “hit”).

Yes it was actually.

This doesn’t show it fitted to a Stormer and is sadly not proof a full functional Stormer mounted turret
was made. The Devs have already seen this source.
