This is just getting silly honestly. VK3002 is the fastest, most heavily armored, and most heavily armed tank at its BR all at the same time with only a few negligible downsides to counter it.
This goofy goober is so overpowered that it makes even som1 like me look good.
The VK3002 would already be overpowered enough if its damage model wasn’t completely broken, but I guess there’s no money in it for Gajin to have som1 actually fix it.
The VK 3002 performs very well even at 5.3, and in many ways is better than the Panther D.
Keep at 5.0
move to 5.3
move to 5.7

Also on a side note, I regularly bring my 4.3 Hetzer to 5.0. Honestly the Hetzer and Jagdpanzer 4 are just as criminally undertiered as the VK 3002
Much weaker UFP than the Panther at 5.3, extremely slow turret traverse, plenty of turret weakspots. However yes it has great mobility, a great gun and great round. For now it’s fine where it’s at, in my opinion at least.
you dont stand much hope with the 75mm on Churchill 7. a 6pdr will just about get through when close but don’t bank on it. it should be moved up to help the little compression at 4.3-5.7. this is where new players are just getting the hang of the game so shafting them with this kind of thing already isn’t gonna keep them around
the jackson is 5.3 and the b2 is 5.7. they are extremely powerful tank destroyers with great shells at the cost of armour, the VK3002 doesn’t compromise armour too hard.
id say there’s a case for the B2 jackson to go up too, that HEAT shell is nuts, I envy not having a shell that cracked for a respective BR in britain
Its armour is still dependable until you meet an annoyed comet, challenger or centurion who knows where you are.
You misread him, he’s talking about the Churchill NA75, which shares the same 75mm M3 as the M4A1, but is at 4.3.
There’s also the Churchill VII, which uses a bored out 6pdr which fires the same ammo as the M3, (albeit the M61 round is filled with concrete, so no APHE), and sits at 4.7.
So same gun as in my US 4.0 lineup, yet I’ve had zero issues with Panthers? Sure they’re kinda scary from the front, but their ability to react is so poor that unless you’re caught out of position, you can still kill them without much trouble.
You don’t get APCR, you’re also slower in every way including gun handling. You can not deal with panther and vk30 just needs to be further than in your face and you aren’t doing a thing. You’re free food.
