You forgot the og 2A7 aka Strv122 lol.
That Gang is troublemaker.
it completely defeats atgm reliant vehicles lol if it was more realistic it would also intercept nearby ally missile passing by however its not the case
Yeah I know, its why a lot of people overlook or avoid them.
Personally I do significantly better with them than the MBT2000, maybe due to the methodic way they need to be used.
The ztz96B i also prefer over the mbt 2000, though i tend to find myself over extended due to it’s excessive mobility.
I’m planning to buy that beast soon( despite having Al-Khalid and Chinese tree already), that thing will complete my 11.7 line-up pretty nice.
it’s much better than the MBT 2000, beware though it’s armours lackin severely.
It’s right nice to use, just need me the VT5 to complete my lineup
By the looks of it its armor is much better than MBT-2000 due to better ERA coverage.
It also has LWS which pretty nice bonus but has worse reverse speed compare to Al-Khalid and MBT-2000 but i guess overall mobility is better.
6.7 sec reload is also pretty nice compare to 7.0 second.
My line-up is pretty much complete on 11.7 actually, it based on:
- Al-Khalid
-MBT-2000
-HQ-17
-JH7A
-Z10
-VT-5
With 96B it will be complete.

it has a better reload, has LWS, also has IR tracking man, good proxy round which can also nuke tanks.
the armour seems better but trust me either it’s not working right or I’ve had some pretty poor gaijin moments were I get nuked.
I usually do fairly okay with the chinese MBTs as well so think I’m about a 1.0 KD with it.
Do remember it still is a 10.3 tank hull suped up, so it’s still got some areas which are questionable, or should say, I’ve had some areas which some questionable shots have gotten through.
See I swapped out the MBT 2000s for the ZTZ99 II and III cause I find them extremely fun to use and work at 11.7 just as well.
So yeah I need the VT5 and mine is complete bar the Z10 :( , Personally though I use the JH7A for CAS and the J7E for CAP as it’s super sneaky for the BR bracket and is properly nice to fly.
I’d highly recommend it man, it’s mobility is absolutely ridiculous.
Most likely its on par with WZ1001 by the looks of it.

better, I tend to get myself faster than theWZ1001, that’s actually for me a problem with the ZTZ 96B xd I always end up over extended and out of position for the reload.
the 1001 isn’t as fast either 75 kmph max speed VS 78, I’ve rarely hit the 75 on my 1001, but the 96B I’ve hit the 78 a few rimes, which also turns off the stab xD
I’ve near got the 99A then I am moving onto finishing the SPAA and helis with the ground forces

Interesting. My 1001 regularly hits it top speed on most terrain.
I started to grind 99A again after I got my M1A2T couple days ago but honestly 99A doesn’t interest me too much.
Sure you have better reload than 1001 but in return its slower, has less penetration and doesnt have 14.5mm hmg which is quite useful against lightly armored vehicles.
After I’m done with 99A I will go back to grind ZBD04A as its the only line-up left for me on entire Chinese tree.

Maybe due to crew level ?
i think mine’s not experted, though neitehr is it experted on the 96B.
You just reminded me I’ve got to get that damn M1A2 xD I forgot it was added man, so add that to my list of chinese ground stuff to get lol.
is the 99A not 12.3 though as well?
Or is it 12.7.
personally for me I prefer my VT4A1 over the 1001, like i don’t think I’ll use the 99A much, I usually spawn, VT4A1, VT4 , 1001 then a 99 II or III, but now I have the 96B so I use that before the 99 II.
The ZBD04A is really nice for it’s BR tbh man, i need to crew the damn AFT09 as well,.
though for the 8.7 / 9.0 area I really, really like my ZTZ 88A or B whatever one has the longer cannon, type 69 G II , object 120, PTZ89 or whatever the 5 second auto loading 120mm is. Combined with some fun cas.
Like the little helicopter which is moving to 9.0
Mine is 150 level expert crew, that maybe the reason.
I already bought three tone CARC market place camo for that beast, soon I will start spading it.
I also personally prefer VT4 series but recently I swapped my regular VT4 with WZ1001 due to armor protection.
Regular VT4 doesnt even get access to FY-4 ERA which makes it more weak against top tier shells, plus WZ1001 has much better reverse speed tho VT4’s has spall liner advantage (WZ and 99A should also get it but you know gaijin).

Standard MBTs without APS manage just fine, you don’t need to kneecap yourself with a gimped T-72B3 which is much worse in every other situation.
get it
that thing is hilarious
that’ll do it mate lol mines like level 90 or 100 odds.
I need to get it as well man, the M1s are absolutely fantastic tank to use TBH, I right like my US ones.
I use both TBH, the VT4A1 followed by the 1001.
you can even see my stats I do better with the VT4A1 over the WZ1001. which is odd.
VT4A1 doesn’t ?

Oh I do, they all also have holes in their armour which bug reports proved to be false.
VT4A1 gets access to FY-4 on turret only while WZ1001 enjoys FY-5 on turret and mix of FY-4/5 on hull, lfp is also significantly smaller on WZ so its much more tanky compare to VT4’s tho like I’ve said before I like VT4’s more purely because of their design. (Spall liner is bonus as well).
VT4’s biggest drawbacks are reverse speed and ufp era doesnt richocet incoming projectiles.
Normally it should have the same reverse speed that WZ has and ufp should deflect incoming shells due to its angle but its bugged and gaijin refuses to fix both problems.
I feel as if gaygin just needs to decompress properly. And with the addition of many tanks with spikes the t-72B3 gets more effective.
I feel like I had a stroke writing this
the WZ 1001 doesn’t get any on the hull but yeah I didn’t notice the turret had the FY5 and the VT4 didn’t, though what I do notice is the VT4 actually get’s FY2 and not Fy4 all over the hull.
Same man , I think i just play them better.
As always mate as always

t72 arena can withstand two entire salvo of aft09, mephisto or even spike
the first two vehicles cant do anything against it or anything too close to them and these atgm vehicle have no secondary weapon so you must dodge them or flee on sight and if ambushed its over, for vehicles with spike its even worse bcoz youre left with a potato cannon to scratch its paint before exploding to pieces unless you had luck and caught it-s side armor exposed
problem is when you encounter two or three of these things roaming around heading towards you lol
if missing a single shot can be fatal now imagine something capable of having 8 opportunities to attack carelessly while your attacks do nothing lol
