Why has the FV4005 not already been moved down to like 5.3 if you are just going to keep it THIS BAD?

Its bad enough you act like throwing 40 pounds of C4 at the front of tank is gonna do nothing, and even worse you won’t buff its reload or anything to make up for the fact it doesn’t do anything. A Tank with a gun this big and powerful should not have to go around sniping weakspots to get kills.

it ripped the turret clean of a Centurion MK1 for Snails sake, it nearly did the same to a UPARMORED Conqueror.

I have hit IS-3s in the face and non penned, which is the EXACT vehicle that this thing was built to delete off the face of the planet. Panthers can survive hits to the UFP, and even turret, and only lose 1 crewmember. Tiger 2s can flat out just tank the rounds to the face and only loose 1-2 crew.

Why are the Artillery pieces never designed to engage tanks at any point, BETTER tank destroyers than a vehicle built with the express purpose of BEING a Tank Destroyer?

And with the Rumors of the FV215 being a Upcoming event reward, i REALLY doubt its gonna be of any use either. At this point just give it the Proposed full bore AP round the British were gonna develop to go with the HESH round.

I have a simple answer of only 3 points.

  1. Its British

  2. until the last two years information that wasn’t BS from WoT wasn’t easily available

  3. Its not popular enough for gaijin to care about the vehicles non functional shell

not quite C4, its plasticised RDX, same explosive but different mixture. Its effectiveness should be sufficient to snap any MBTs hull in half unless they have very spaced or thick composite armour.

it threw the turret off a mk1 cent and cracked the hull of a conqueror through the bazooka plates and damaged most internal components beyond repair.

Ive had non pens on BMPs let alone an IS tank

The BMP’s just seem HESH proof, i legit shot one in the side point plant with 120mm HESH from my Chieftain and it nonpenned.
