Okay then why is the Chieftain MK3, with sub 300mm of pen, horrid armor other than a Turret that doesn’t even work since it fights nothing but APFSDS, and absolutely horrid mobility.
Fight 9.7s?
Its just a worse Conqueror in every way other than reload, and the reload is only decent if you have a really high level crew.
EDIT: what makes this even worse is that the Conqueror is actually Immune to most of the APDS the Chieftain Fights. 100mm Russian APFSDS can’t even pen the thing frontally, yet it can decimate the Chieftain.
bro there is almost no russian army in kursk lol why they dont use them in their own equipped lands? british tanks are great, but if you give ukraine alll your weapon, they cant defeat russian army lonely, this war would never have happened if… you know lol
L1G is significantly worse than than L15A3 due to APDS modifiers not present on the statcard, it’s worse in sloped pen, it’s worse against composite armours on top of post pen being mid for a round that takes forever to reload
and the Chief can sponge 3BM25, it’s a vast improvement over the Conq
Dude. the Brits have the best possible tank they could get, the Challenger 3 TD. Its the absolute BEST thing they could possibly get, because it isn’t even out of the prototype stages yet, It’s still a new Tank in development. And it’s STILL Junk because They didn’t even bother to model the thing properly, they just threw a new Mesh over the old damage model and called it a day.
The ONLY thing they could get better is the Challenger 130.
But since we STILL don’t have the M1 Thumper, or the 140mm Leopard 2, i REALLY doubt we will EVER get any of the big bore MBT’s. Unless its Russian of course, because the never functional Object 292 gets added, But not the heavily tested Leopard 2-140, or the M1 Thumper.
🤔 Tiger HAD with Spikes, F-16AM with Mav Ds and 2000lb GBU(and soon JDAM), Mirage with GBU + AS-30L…
Only problem I run into in the matchmaker is Pantsir being the only somewhat threatening SPAA and US teams seem to be solely played by very low skilled/inexperienced players
Why does Germany, Russia and Sweden all together stomps every top tier match? Let’s break it down:
Germany has meta top tier vehicles: Leos 2A5, 2A6, PSO and 2A7V, they all are heavily protected and rounded MBTs, the highlighted light vehicle being the PUMA (with the possibility of using the Begleitpanzer as another light), and FlaRakRad as a competitive SPAA. Lacking on meta helicopters despite the eurocopter being useful, and also lacking CAS planes since basically ever.
The USSR fixes the lack of CAS this theoretical team would ever need, along a decent MBT lineup and, overall, a very deep selection of vehicles capable of performing at top tier, including meta helicopters and both strike and fighters to even CAP along a strong SPAA as the Pantsir is.
Finally Sweden is, in practice, an iteration of Germany, but having ItOs and the Gripen to work as CAS or CAP.
Compare that mix of nations together to any possible combination of remaining nations, you won’t find any possible counterpart with the same assets combined, neither the depth of Russian lineups, or the raw performance of German/Swedish ground vehicles, and you’ll find why such mix of countries ends up being the uncontested winning trio.
It’s outrageous that this has been a thing for over a year, yet Gaijin has neglected the top tier matchmaker.
Americans go cap one point, scout something, die and then camp in their CAP planes all game. 90% of the time I spawn in CAS against america I get an f16 rwr ping the second I spawn. Sitting in planes all game ignore objectives because SPAA is actually capable up here and you dont want to die leads to your team getting obliterated.
I mean too bad US, Israeli, British French and Italian (excluding the 2A7HU) vehicles at top tier are just bad at pushing/contesting objectives compared to the 2A7s/122s.
