New Chinese VT-4B tank. Would be good tank for BR 13.3. Something China currently lacks in War Thunder.

What about the 99B? The VT series is designed for export, not for use by the Chinese military. Of course, due to secrecy, Gaijin may have trouble getting reliable information on Chinese vehicles. That could also explain why new Chinese vehicles are added so slowly and why Gaijin is so cautious with their stats. It’s simply very difficult to know their exact specifications and performance.
A lot of the information online about Chinese tank performance is inaccurate or even outright false, so it can’t be considered reliable evidence for accurately modeling their specifications and combat performance in the game.
If Gaijin gives them lower stats, many players (especially Chinese players) will be unhappy. But if the stats are too high, it goes against Gaijin’s principle of accurately representing real-life vehicles.
If Gaijin just makes up vehicle stats, they risk being ridiculed by people who actually know their stuff. They could also lose players who really care about realism and how vehicles perform in-game.
Sure, it’s just a game, but one of its biggest selling points is how it tries to recreate real military vehicles in as much detail as possible. I believe that’s what attracts a lot of military enthusiasts to the game.
