M4A3E2 Jumbo vs Tiger E

A while ago I had mentioned the fact that one of the most recent tanks released for the allies in Normandy was able to confront Tiger E, well I was talking about Jumbo so taking the opportunity to mention the small change made by the developers but which was not revealed , come on… the Tiger E is capable of confronting a Soviet tank with an 88mm caliber but amazingly it looks like a 76mm tank called Jumbo manages to destroy it with two shots, which can be said not to be the same if it was a tiger shooting it with its 88mm cannon (yes the Jumbo’s armor is strong so that gives it an advantage in confronting the Tiger E) but wait a minute did you decide that to end the lasting confrontation between the tanks it would simply be to increase the penetration of the Jumbo? this here is not only a suggestion but also a criticism for the imbalance they made between the tanks and that needs to be corrected, are you going to tell me that the heavy tank Jumbo has now become a fighter tank?!

Premium Jumbo was always able to easily destroy tiger with its APCR.

Only way a jumbo can 2 shot a cat, is if it can shoot it’s side… And if it’s the case, tiger DESERVES to explode…

Edit: forgot about premium sandcastle.

Maybe try to angle. A well angled Tiger E is really tough to pen.

No, with a single shot he was able to destroy the tower and kill three crew members, they were face to face, in another case it was destroyed with a single shot also face to face

Must’ve been the sandcastle then… it now has WORKING apcr. Was bugged before and acted like regular ap.

It is impossible to destroy a jumbo with a tiger if they are face to face, and as I said the tiger is capable of defending with its armor up to an 88mm t-34-85 but it is destroyed by a 76mm tank

Tiger can 1 shot jumbo face to face…

If it manages to hit the tiny mg port.

I really didn’t know that, I already defended the tiger from fire from an IS-2 with 122mm I even accepted being destroyed with one shot, but a 76mm tank? even if it’s APCR

Is-2 is complete shtt in this game, extremely underpowered.

No it never happens, The jumbo has strong armor

And yet, it does.

If a good pz4 driver can (with luck) a big cat also can.

Believe!

Tiger E can one shot Jumbo and there are two weak spots on Jumbo to shoot with Tiger E and Panther A. Easy kills.

I’ve never seen a panzer IV destroy a Jumbo face to face, the Jumbo is capable of destroying any Normandy tank with ease, now even the tiger

A, Thomas, you.

That you never seen it yourself doesn’t mean it isn’t true. I’ve done it myself often with regular pz4, and Stug.

Where is the weak point then? I know one of them is the treadmill, but that doesn’t destroy it.

You missed the part where I said “mg port”, did you?

The stug is a tank fighter it would be kind of obvious for him to penetrate the armor, I already used a lot of Panzer IV before going to the Tiger and I know how difficult it is to try to penetrate his armor

One well known is the MG port that even Puma can pen and the other one is the turret ring left side (right side from your POV). Both pens one shot Jumbo if you’re using Tiger E.

Yes I saw it, but at long distance it is impossible to hit a gap where there is a machine gun, the issue is the jumbo at 150-200m destroy a tiger with one shot, an IS-2 with a completely wrong shot would still not penetrate it even though it was one of the most powerful tanks in the game, so I would recommend putting the Tiger II in Normandy since a Jumbo is having the same effective as an IS-2
