Not a valid point? Suggestion is to add it, NOT give it OFL 120 F2, then put it in Vextra’s current spot
Put Vextra to 10.3, where the Tiger HAP and Super Etendard work better with it, then expand its line-up from there
It doesn’t even matter if it DOES have a 9.7 lineup, as the AMX-40 is heavily nerfed, AMX-30 ROLAND is heavily nerfed, at that point buff them all and bring them to 10.3
Heli and a plane do not make a lineup, tanks do. Amx 40 chassy is more in line with 9.7 tech level. On 10.3 it will be much more situational, surrounded by modern tanks with composite, era and other advancements. Again no point in destroying a solid working 9.7 lineup just to make 2 weaker lineups. When more 9.7, 10.0 and 10.3 tanks will be added the discussion about buffing vextra will be valid
Again, youre not paying attention at all. AMX-40 could perform great at 10.3 with its composite armor its missing, as well as the ammo having massively underperforming penetration, it would be too strong at 9.7 with those accuracy fixes
Do that with the Vextra, and you get a 10.3 vehicle
Fix the Roland and you get yet another great 10.3 option
9.7 in France is made ENTIRELY of vehicles that are massively nerfed to fit that BR. It shouldn’t be in need of more 10.3s. France should have 10.3s in the vehicles already added, and in need of 9.7.
AMX-40 could perform great at 10.3 with its composite armor its missing
My report regarding this recently got accepted, along with my other report about the AMX-40’s ready rack being incorrect.
I’d love to see the AMX-40 with it’s turret composite and a faster reload go up in BR alongside a VEXTRA 105 with it’s proper APFSDS shell.
There are a lot of other vehicles like the AMX-10RC TML that could be added to reinforce the 9.7 lineup, while the VEXTRA and AMX-40 could create a 10.3 lineup which France currently lacks.
Not gonna lie that would probably be something that would better suit a 10.7 France lineup (assuming that thing is stabilized because iirc the early EBRC turrets are not)
Clicked I have the same issue on these to maybe help
Is there also a report open about its apparently massively underperforming shell? I saw that it should have a lot more penetration but not sure where it was last
Also more 10.3s could be the funny Cockerill 3105s, since those are actually pretty unique to an extent and would be a nice use of Belgium
I really dont understand why they didnt go for it instead. It would fit much better to 9.7 and also be easier for them to make.
And Vextra now sits at BR where it doesnt really belong and as a cherry on top now there is also alone 2a4 without any line up at 10.7 that nobody asked for.
Sir, have you considered adding the OFL 105 F2 shell to the Vextra105 and fixing the third-generation thermal imaging of the Vextra105? This would allow the Vextra105 to be moved to 10.3 or 10.7, forming a 10.7 queue with the Leopard 2A4, or a 10.3 queue with the super-etendard. Additionally, the Netherlands has a less protected version of the Leopard 2A4 (Leopard 2NL), which I think could also be placed in the 10.3 bracket, thus France would have a satisfactory 10.3 queue.
Certainly, I believe 10.3 or even 10.0 (without providing the third-generation thermal imaging) would be a more suitable position. Compared to the Radkampfwagen 90 at 10.0, the Vextra105 has better ammunition (OFL 105 F2 shell) and thermal imaging. However, its turret and hull protection are almost nonexistent. The Radkampfwagen 90’s hull and turret can completely withstand the 2A42’s APFSDS at point-blank range, whereas the Vextra cannot even defend against HVAP rounds fired by the 20mm RH202 (used by the 7.3 Wiesel 1A4). Additionally, the Vextra’s power-to-weight ratio and reverse speed are significantly lower.
I mean the challenger 2 is kinda of a joke now because it’s armor is bad in a sense that there is so many holes in it that you can’t even hull down
shooting the optic on top of the gun kills commander loader
shooting the gunners optic kills commander gunner
the upper front plate is supposed to be as armored as the turret yet it has the armor value of a challenger 1
The Leclerc kinda has the same issue but that’s a different story
This whole thing is an easy fix, give it the new shell, move it up, and in its current 9.7 spot add AMX-10RC TML 105, because the later one was stabilized and had an older round. Gaijin seems adamantly against logical solutions
