Naw, nigga, it's worse. You get ammo racked by planes more often than you kill them. At least the M19 has some armor around the shells. Not to mention the slav 14.5mm MG or your open top. Enjoy being "just as good" as other SPAA your BR such as the kugelblitz, though.

Gunner is just behind the driver. Doesn't mean he's not a dingus for not shooting through the breech, though.

>>149848140
>shoot the breech

How exactly would he manage this

He can't get an angle on the breech because it's pointed straight at him, and shooting the mantlet/gun is even more of a dice roll than shooting a drivers window.

You can avoid it by shutting down the engine when you have a couple seconds of fuel left but the rare occasion I run out I always forget to do that.

Because the fuel cans are arranged to look like the L-shape of the first hull from a distance instead of the characteristic single slope of the 1944.

It depends on which shells they give it. It's first APFSDS were p bad, but they might go full retard give it depleted uranium arrows.

>>149855978
No, it's best round will be a 440mm HEAT-FS shell. In all other regards it's worse than the T-54.

A T-54 with APDS or HEAT-FS will be better than it. Armour is comperable, everything else too. The gun is 115mm, so bit more spalling, but it has 19s of stock reload time. It won't be anything special, the hull is already in the game on IT-1, so you can test how shit works against it. Personally I never had any problems with it, HEAT-FS fucks it up like everything else. The only good thing it will bring is APDSFS for other nations and the fact APDS will be fixed finally as this thing will have it stock and you know you can't let poor slavs have a hard time. In general, T-62 and M60A1 may be a problem when downtiered due to their armour, but the new Leo will most likely be the best top tier tank to come out of this update. Manoeuvrability+speed+rate of fire trump everything once you have HEAT-FS.

So no, T-62 won't be game breaking, as long as there's not a "completely and totally unplanned bug" buffing it hard, like ammo racks not going off and shit like that. As for M60A1, you basically had it at the release of the current M60 when that one had bugged turret with 200+mm of armour. Leo, not much different than the current one.
>>149839776
I wouldn't say they never die, but since the release of T29, US certainly became more competitive. M46s flank while T29s have armour and a good APHE. It certainly isn't bad now, but the blogging cunt will never admit that.

>What the FUCK are they thinking?
They're not.

>>149872009
Canada designed, built and used it.

There's no reason it should be in the IS tree other than 'they looked at American tanks when they were figuring out how to make one'. It should be in the UK tree, it's a Commonwealth tank.

>>149871906
>Italian plane in nazi tree


??????????????

>>149872158
They should have it as a lead in to the Sherman from the M3 Lee.
Maybe feature the Grizzly somewhere inside as well, since it was a slightly more armored M4, I believe.

>>149872158
US tree* kek

The Grizzly was the one that was actually a Canadian produced US tank, the Ram was a Canadian tank.

>>149872251
Italians don't have a tree so they go in the most sensible one, their major partner in the Axis: Germany.

Commonwealth tanks should go in the UK tree. There's literally no reason for the Ram to be in the US tree:

>it was designed by Canadians
>it was built by Canadians
>it was used by Canadians
>Canada's only wartime ally currently in-game at the time the tank was introduced was the UK
>Canada was a Commonwealth realm and fought for the UK, the leader of the Allies at the time it was introduced

The ONLY reason you could even try to think of for it to be in the US tree is that the Canadians looked at American tanks before they went about designing their own.

This is Gaijin being utterly retarded.

literally meme tier armour, you'll bounce more 88s and 90s than you did in all your vehicles combined. Use the stock APHE, it has the biggest TNT filler and enough pen to go through a side of any tank, bar Maus. You'll only need APCR for the KT(H)'s turret, but you can easily flank it. Probably the best 6.3 vehicle due to the combination of speed, manoeuvrability and firepower. If you know how to flank, you'll rape.
>Also , what to research next , the T-44-100 or the ISU-122?
ISU-122 is shit, but it leads to SU-100 which is fun as hell. You'll need a backup vehicle anyway, so might as well get that. Dunno what T-44-100 is really, but it's pretty good from what I've heard

american muscle fighters, like P-47 and P-51D, perform better at high alt than most fighters, but get outmanouvered by pretty much anything when in thick air. By diving you gave up about the only advantage you had.

Suggestions for flying the P38J against Slavs & Nips? Very few are dumb enough to follow me into a climb and burn all their energy, and the P38 just doesn't quite have the dive speed/climb rate to compete with the Slav aircraft I'm matched with.

How much is gaijew paying you abhumans?

>>149876882

I know you're being sarcastic, but the US tree loses a lot of its advantages due to game design alone. US prop fighters weren't designed to fight slavs. Navy planes were not designed to fight Germans. Very rarely did an engagement begin with US fighters having to scramble for intercept, because of remote bases and the tide of the war.

Add in the fact that .50 damage isn't correctly modeled, and you have probably the hardest nation to fly. The only thing US planes unequivocally excel at is running away, but that doesn't win matches.

>>149877106

Also the clouds that stretch from 2500m to space in every second map, giving the Slavs the advantage....

>>149877106
>Navy planes were not designed to fight Germans
They did though

>>149877106

no, you blame the wrong thing, it's certainly not the plane design

us planes were designed to fight japs and they lose to them in wt all the time

>us planes were designed to fight japs and they lose to them in wt all the time

>>149871542
Why isn't it in the British tree?

>>149877807
for the same reason why for unlocking maple leaf roundel you should play american vehicles

>>149877613

Yea, because the .50s don't do their proper damage, as I said.

There's also the fact that every turnfighter will see a BnZ fighter coming, no matter the care they've taken to position themselves in a blindspot. The marker system needs a pretty big revamp to put more focus on visual scanning. That's probably the single biggest thing that could help US teams.

>>149877807

The "enemy decloaks 300 m behind you" meme is real

Even with a maxed crew I still get jumped by people that don't show up on radar until they're already shooting at me. Most of the time I can hear their engines coming though

>>149878081

I haven't had this happen to me in MONTHS, so I don't know why you are. But even as you said, you can hear their engines and snap roll, which is usually effective.

Point being, that "meme" should be the majority of engagements.

>>149877982
>who cares

If an American late-war/Korean War era unique premium tank was given to the UK tree because the British gave it a designation at some point, every burgerboo in-game would lose their shit and shitpost on the forums.

>>149877920
>Yea, because the .50s don't do their proper damage
I just got four engine fires in a 110 while trying to down a british bomber.
I'm now convinced they mixed up the damage values for british 30 cals and american 50 cals.

>>149877920
it's enough if they make markers appear only when it's YOUR crew who see the enemy, and others would get your info only on minimnap, and only if you manually spot.

Some sort of manual spotting system that required you to pull up your minimap would be cool, too.

Anything really to give BnZ aircraft the element of surprise they historically had. Hell, they could redo the dot system so aircraft could be seen better at distance, too.

My favorite plane in the collection. A reproduction model built by Flug Werk GmbH.

They have an original A8 slotted for restoration, too. We'll get to her in a bit...

I'm not super familiar with the reproduction kits built by Flug Werks. Chances are changes were made, since they typically sport Chinese made Shvetsov engines.

I came on the spot

Vought FG-1D Corsair (built by Goodyear)

>>149888445
>low profile
And that makes it better how exactly? Apart from obviously you having to expose your whole tank as you sure as hell won't get behind any cover.
>faster than leo
Average speed (speed you'll actually hit on WT's maps when not going downhill or on road) is similar to Leo's.
>65 Km/h reverse
That makes it good how exactly? It's useful, but not something that will generally help you.
>320mm HEAT-FS
Which you'll unlock as a tier 2 mod, after gathering 70+k RP. Until then you'll be stuck with the shitty APCR.

And even once you get HEAT-FS, you'll still have shit gun traverse and be forced into 8.0BR matches. With Leo (which is actually the best tier 5 vehicle), you'll at least have meme UFP, stock APDS, a turret and most of all, fun.

But you are free to post your stats of it, I'm really curious what "the best tier 5 vehicle" can do. And why didn't you at least pick RakJpz-2 to shitpost? It's the same as KJP, but it can at least stay in cover and doesn't have a shit stock grind.

I sadly don't, because the museum didn't take any out the day I was there. You can check out their website, tho: http://www.militaryaviationmuseum.org/ww2-aircraft.html

It pretty much is. The average black folk barely get to take vacations let alone to air shows and exhibits.

Not to mention how WHITE the air force history even is discourages minorities.

God this fucking plane, I can't even...

Ever since I saw Porco Rosso as a kid I've wanted to just live in a sea plane for a living. This motherfucker really got to me...

PBY-5a Catalina. Built in 1943, saw service in the Atlantic during WW2 and served with the Coast Guard post-war.

Surplused in 1956, and had a colorful civilian career, including stints as a fuel tanker in Alaska, and eventually seized by the government for drug smuggling.

DIdn't mean to say it's the best Tier V overall but best Tier V TD comparing it to the T95/Su-122-54, Leo is still the best overall Tier V when facing actual Tanks instea of SPAA

>low profile
It has -8 Degrees of gun depression meaning hills aren't that much of a problem for it and cover can work to your advantage if you do it right

>average speed
It's not jsut about the Top Speed it also accelerates faster than the Leo meaning you can escape much faster if you are underfire therefor the 65Mk/h is also useful if you are ambushed or need to make a quick getaway without turning your gun away from the enemy

I don't play a lot Tier V so i don't have a lot of games in it, most of those Leo matches were right after it was released and when APDS used to be god like

>>149890350

That's because flying and/or maintaining an aircraft actually takes critical thinking skills, something niggers lack, Anon....

There was a smattering of black families at the museum while I was there. Its a big military area (all the branches are represented), and Hampton Roads has a significant black demographic, many of whom also serve.
