The Panther KF51!

Is it possible we will receive the Panther KF51 in the upcoming future? If so do yall think it would play like the object 292 but x2 as better?

Not in near future

It would just be like the 2A7V or 2A7HU (in terms of the bonus RCWS) with a more effective round and better armour, it’s tech really isn’t that far above what we already have in game tbh, but it certainly WON’T play like any russian MBT like you are suggesting because of the 130mm, even the ascalon gun (140mm) is a new generation of MBT cannon, not comparable to the 292

Actually the addition of an autoloader would elevate it further above the current best MBTs in the world (and subsequently in game) so right now it would be a very hard vehicle to balance given the reception of the 2A7s.
The KF51 easily outperforms the Armata by a fairly large margin and it’s certainly ahead of the AbramsX in terms of innovative tech, as far as counterparts from other nations there really isn’t much that comes close as of 2024.

I should pay gaijin $2 million for them to add F-22 Raptor. I also heard it’s the Russian killer tank

you could pay all of their salaries 10x over and they still wouldn’t directly respond to the playerbase

bros speaking facts. Do you think Germany should get a Polish M1A2 SEP V2 as a researchable vehicle?

No?
Much much much worse armor in fact.
The prototypes and demo versions we have currently aren’t rated against specific threats yet and the base hull and turret structures are still old 2A4s.

Absolutely not, Poland, while having history of being controlled by Germany & Russia, should be its own tech tree.

Germany is already (One of) the most competitive TT, it doesn’t need an Abrams on top of leopards.

Good point, United States did kick German butts ;D

worse armor, the kf51 is supposed to trade armor for mobility
the APS system is supposed to replace the removed armor

yeah just wanted to say, germany by far aint the best tech tree, sweden and russia propably still ahve the better top tier ground alone, not mentioning air

We’re a long away from that, especially given we only have the Leo 2A7V as the top German MBT and DM53 as the top round…

on one hand it has worse conventional armour, it instead has a layered steel/composite/strikeshield layout that will make it a decently effective hull and a better turret imo

What?

True…

Not even competition lmao, don’t let your enjoyment of the russian ‘cool factor’ dissolution yourself from the reality that they really aren’t all that good

the only point where the kf51 outperforms the armata is the gun.
the armata is better armored by far, unmanned turret, aps as well and smaller silhouette thanks to the unmanned turret.

The kf51 in its current form as we are aware of it is not better then the armata.
The leo 2 arc 3.0 is more of a contender for this

Less armor, poorer maneuverability, mediocre optics, built directly off a 1980s hull with nothing more than applique composite added to it…

You’re saying this is better than the T-14?

I’d put the Leopard 2 Revo above it at this point
