Just acknowledge it’s bad, the T-72AV (Turms-T) is bad, not because is bad as it’s but because it’s a Premium and there are people that still buy it, it’s sad to see people paying a Premium vehicle so bad that with the same amount converted in Golden Eagles you can get a better vehicle in the same battle rating.
If it was a tech tree vehicle I wouldn’t mind but as a Premium it doesn’t work anymore, a future compensation for whoever bought the T-72AV (Turms-T) would be very welcome and eventually removing it from sale or moving it as a tech tree vehicle which could serve as great improvement for USSR’s T-72B which lacks proper sight for its battle rating.
CV90 105 TML was removed for similar reason, it was so bad that it was removed and if I’m not wrong the players that bought that was compensated, then it was replaced by the CV90 105 XC-8, I’m not considering the accuracy issues with the vehicle.
But it didn’t have a stabiliser in real life. So rather than removing the stabiliser ingame and making a lot of the buyers angry, they instead upgraded it to the XC-8 version.
Previously with the Italian M60 premium, they removed a stabiliser it shouldn’t have had, and the playerbase threw a fit. Guess they didn’t want a repeat of that.
Anyway theres no reason why should TURMS be removed as premium. Its fine where it is.
Id ho as far as to say that the TURMS and 80UB are perfect match for premium lineup, one trading hull armor for thermals, but both being good against their counterparts as long as they are played to their strengths.
It is a tank geared for sniping, but with 5 degrees of gun depression and 4km reverse. The sprut at 10.0 does its job better just due to the fact it can reverse and that will keep you alive a lot better than turret armor will in these situations. Not to mention having a much better penning round.
I dont know how it was when first added, but powercreep at this point makes its armor very mid, and no matter how good your armor is you are getting 1 tapped from a lfp/ring/driver port shot, or taken out of action via breach or barrel, maybe losing crew too.
No armor best armor isnt a meme when you dont have the gun depression to only present turret face when peeking in 90% of spots that HATO 9 degrees depression can, and you spend 3x longer reversing back into cover.
If it had the resverse speed and depression of a leopard it could well be 11.0 or .3 even.
That is an INSANE revision of what actually happened lmao. It was just found to be fake after the fact… the tank itself was always considered fine, if not overpowered.
