Wont be on the strong side yea but it wont terrorise 7.3
The 8.3 M60 literally has “Add On Stabiliser” in the name and the Leopard clones include the TURM III, STB-1 and Type 74C.
bruh
because long rod APFSDS is needed for T-54s?

??? There are exactly 0 M60s or leopard 1s without stabilizers 8.3 onwards
this doesn’t matter, M728 APDS is superior to the dart on the T-55
T-55 isn’t strong in armor either.
It doesn’t do this now, and it would be close to garbage at 8.7.
Leo 1 is very common u can see it like all leo clones combined
Also turm 3 is op and should go up
And the amrican m60 isnt the only one u know
Whats ur other options?
Heat and apds?
Yea i will take apfsds on them any day and i think every experianced player will agree
Mb i remembered leo 1 being 8.3
But u have m48 and m60 in germany and israel trees
America has the t95
France also have something i think its the light tank
Its not as common u see unstabilized vehicles all the time also this is for 8.3 its getting worse when u getting downtier (Not in proportion like other brs)
No its not apfsds has much more post pen damage and less likely to get volume metriced
Prwtty much better then everything else in this br
And if i face against ap shooter then ur armor is insane
Yes it does and it wont be garbage on 8.7 it will be mid
listing the MBTs without stabs doesnt mean there arent a dozen+ with them
bruther, france doesnt get a stabilizer on anything until 9.3, even their spaa isnt stabbed at 8.7
It isnt that good being a short rod and I’d honestly take the apds because it has better angled pen and reload speed. The T-55’s APHE is more notable.
Doesn’t mean anything. It still has mid armor that only saves you from poorly placed shots.
A 7.3 is just as happy to see a T-55 as it is to see a M60 AOS or STB-2 or any other 8.3 stabilized mbt
It will be garbage. There are lots of just strictly better MBTs at 8.7.

Yea i wasent sure the mbts as well
Its just makes my point stronger
T55 just have everything minos the gun handling and depression its insane
U have the 3 major things which are armor fire power and mobility which is more then decent
I disagree on the apfsds but sure go ahead
On how much mbts on this rank u can choose between apfsds, aphe, heat or apds?
Much more then poorly placed shots
Ap shells can berly pen u
Hell nah its much easier to pen m60 over t55 or anything else
Only thing thats scarier is the chines equivlant to the t55
That dart is just a reskinned APDS.

T32, maus,ho ri, somua,lorraine,amx 50 ,all he slingers
Also u have the stronger ap like m103 and france 120mm that can pen ur ufp but will have hard time against ur turret and the oppsite on all he slingers on thos brs(which arent stabilized btw)
But ofc the main advatnage over thos vehicles is stabilizer with apfsds
My problem with t55 is on downtiers not on 8.3
Lol just hopped to a match with the t55a cuz all of this talking and well…
The apfsds is working well idk what are u on
all of these tanks can easily frontally pen your turret and the french ones can pen your hull I believe as well
how is it any easier to pen a m60 aos

The BR412 is alright but nothing spectacular since it starts seeing a lot of things it will have trouble to pen from the front, in a flank its great because the explosive fillers guarantee OHKO, the barely minimum to make it good in that br is the one used by T-10M or Object 140, even those isn’t great because a M60 or T-55s shows up you still have to aim at the correct spot else it won’t pen, unlike DM23 or equivalents it just point and click anywhere.

those definitely dont struggle with penning a t55

Only close to the breech
And thos tanks arent stabilized
So u get ur first shot and u dont need to aim like them
M60 ufp is a joke
They cant pen the ufp and turret cheeks
Only near the breach or if they very close they have a chance to pen the ufp but its hella unreliable
well, yeah? the breech is the weakspot everyone knows
…just like any other stabilised tank, this is not unique to t55

Exacly only 1 common weakspot
Yes but no other tank in this br has both stabilizer and apfsds which alone is allrady a big advantges
Now add the more then deceny mobility and great agility+nice armor and u got nearly the perfect tank
The gun handling isnt so bad either only bad thing is depression
one of the worst apfsds rounds in game and a stab
so? just sounds like a good enough balanced tank
m60a1 has both a better round and better reload coupled with gun depression, with worse mobility and more weakspots
sounds balanced to me idk

Yea worst apfsds in the game but on 8.3!
A tow missile on top tier will be useless but on mid tiers its more then great
Its all relative
Not better round cuz apds is unreliable and has less spall
And yea m60 trades this nice gun for bad mobility and less armor
T55 does not!
