Also the Chi-he Has APHE and HE
Ranked by armor penetration
APHE armor piercing HE best shot
AP
SAPHE Semi armor piercing
HE
HE allows you to kill the entire crew without detonating the tanks ammo racks
even if the 47MM and 37MM were equal APHE is just better then SAPHE
the Chi-He would need to have its ammo switched from a APHE HE loadout to a AP SAPHE loadout to be br1
Before I answer ,I did not notice that Valentine
also has the 60mm side armor,but br 2also not so fit it so I just say enlisted br system should be more change.
Well since the armor nerf, T50 isn’t that well armored anymore - also Crusader is a glass canon, it has basically zero armor, but in return quite high penetration power. If not for solid AP rounds being dog poop, Crusader would actually be excellent in BR2.
The problem really is the Pz III J that clearly is BR II tank in BR I there is no better BR I tank then this and its better then Crusader or T50. Pz III J ,T-70 and M5A1 can be moved to BR II will make the early tank balance much better.
