If not good then they wont easily have enough sp to spawn mi28 and sukhois which some of the familiar names here avoiding to mention the facts that always happen.
Pantsir SM-SV cannons are quite the headache in top tier too. Especially after the turret basket nerf of 26. Watching Codmineman Battle Pansir playthrough gives me PTSD


why are you using all time stats instead of june
and given that even june stats only include ~1 week of post ARM introduction even they will likely get closer or smsv getting better stats when the next month releases, given that it is much better at dealing with ARMs than any other AA in the game
As a so called russian main. I do perform better in the chally than in my german and soviet tanks.
And tbh thats just a skill issue.


Why are we using all time stats instead of stats where they both exist at the same time in the same enviroment?
You do fine in them playing them every now and again as a palate cleanser.
The CR2 has been Britains only top tier alternative for years, now we have the M1 you will see no one at top tier playing the CR2. How good a tank performs is based on consistency, CR2 is not consistent because it requires a certain map to get around it’s shortcomings, you need a big map because you have no mobility, your armour is not good enough at short ranges and you only have a 4 round ready rack so you cannot brawl. The BN needs a large map for the APS to be useful against darts.
Put me on Kursk and sure it’s good, put me in Berlin, or Space port and it is a pile of crap.
To be fair, we dont even know to what degree that would work and how effective it would be, granted that when it gets within optical range, the decoys can be visually filtered out
Everyone has CAS, alright.
Not everyone has a Pantsir system. Again, what do you want me or anyone else to do when theres a unique system nobody else has lol. Not everyone had an IRIST when it first got released, but I really didnt hear anyone riding that train.
Armor debates on this forum are a mess. 90% of the arguments are people swaring up and down NATO tank armor is better than anything Russia could ever come up with mixed with the barely understood concept of Heavy ERA.
Reload is subjective in many cases, not that it matters because across the board, NATO Mbt on average have a better reload.
Turret baskets are a nothing burger at this point since everybody pretty much has them
Ammo selection is also subjective. 90% of the conversations are “What NATO round can defeat Relikt + base armor”.
I assume you mean IRIS-T SLM
Except everyone did.
If you mean IRIS-T SLS, or EldE, then yeah, no one did. Rightfully so.
The same thing Gaijin does when it comes to MMW guidance AGMs, modern NATO darts or Meteors. Don’t add them if you can’t balance them. It’s a very simple concept that should apply to all additions for all tech trees including russia.
A. People most definitely (and rightfully) complained that not everyone got a new SPAA in leviathans
B. We knew that the corresponding SPAA for all nations were going to be added soon after.
russia got the SM SV despite already having a 12.7 SPAA like everyone else.
Lmao
It’s not subjective. It’s a balancing measure and some tanks like the Leopards get worse reloads to make up for being better elsewhere
Everybody but a select few.
lol no it isn’t. It’s an objective fact that some NATO tanks deliberately don’t get their modern darts, because otherwise they’d be too strong compared to the competition
hurr durr hurr can’t ufp relikt

Well yeah, adding more modern rounds would invalidate the only saving grace russian tanks have rn.
Implying that Russia doesnt have as capable or equally capable ammo optimized for NERA. This is why I keep reiterating that everyone acts like Russia doesnt have anything to spare in return.
Armor is not everything. NATO tanks have their pros and cons as do Russian tanks, but the armor is always the #1 talking point and everyone uses thag metric to scale a tanks effectiveness.
But because NATO tanks armor as of current isnt strong, people are expecting some sort of “even” playing field in that regard. Again, only accounting formainly 1 attribute
thats because they dont
3bm60 is the best round they have for the 125mm on t90m and t80bvm (except maybe 3bm59 but that is within 10mm pen of 3bm60)
They have newer rounds that are able to be used on the Armata… but that tank is an entirely different conversation.
Not to stray off-topic now. But this is what I mean when I talk about no consideration being made when talking about different nations and comparing them. I couldnt of said the same thing about the Abrams. M829A4 wouldve immediately been mentioned and thats a newer round meant for the newer iterations of the Abrams.
Arguably one of the worst 12.7 in almost every metric, which im still flabbergasted on how Gaijin did not see that before adding it. Theres no map to comfortably LARP firing literal rocketboosters with the worst overall ammo capacity.
It pretty much is for russian tanks in game right now considering that they have pretty much nothing else going for them.
They dont which is why they are rushing Vacuum best ammo we have seen in the early days was 3bm60 and 3bm61. Majority of the time it is Mango.
Genuinely I do not believe a Russian tank has a chance at the 4km engagement range that NATO doctrine operates to.
And before you well other nation has no tanks, or drones are killing tanks ask yourself what ammo US tanks operated with during the Iraq war, or Britain did when they knew Iraq had no tanks or a handful of T-62/55s the current service round. M829A1 and L26A1.
ADM-160s would mess up the radar screen with clutter (try locking the real player when he splits into 18 different airplanes) waste missiles on long range radar pings and give friendly air the opportunities they need to counter with CAP against the endless hoardes of KH-38 spammers
Pretty obvious how that would help
