KV1 should be in BR4

except the postpen damage is rather broken.
It took over 10 hits to T-50’s cheek to get the kill with J1 while 37mm Aphe did the same job with one hit.

And same against kv-1 with J1 took over 15 hits to left cheek.

Sure, it can 1hit from lower hull, but since the maps are rather full of debris this hardly is always even possible.

7.5 cm heat is surprisingly weak against KV1 tanks, despite it having enough power to penetrate it.

KV tanks just seem to have more armor than the 75mm that it should have.

even Panzer IV is struggling against KV-1, no wonder Panzer III cant effectively pen.

Thats because explosive filler is OP in Enlisted.

Infantry support guns are better at fighting tanks than actual high velocity anti tank guns.

You can penetrate KVs 3 times in a row and it might still one hit kill your Panzer IV.

KV-1 is an early war tank (produced in 1939- 1943), that is why it should fight more against Panzers II and III rather than Panthers and Tigers.

Placing it in BR III is a fair compromise between a gameplay and historical accuracy :smiling_face_with_three_hearts:

They don’t comes with HEAT, only the Stalingrad one does, and even with HEAT is 80mm of pen, if a GrB39 with 90mm of pen struggle with KV1, HEAT doesn’t mean shite

It’s mostly about strange post pen damage values.

The granate does veeeery low post pen damage, but the 3N HEAT wrecks if it pens. It always does on sides and turret cheeks.

But sadly as many said, newcomers won’t know the joy of that beautiful Stalingrad legacy piece…

HEAT is bad. Only a commie would use HEAT.
