The Japanese tank “Chi-Ha kai” and “Chi-He” br should be put into 1

is 79MM AP or SAPHE
if its SAPHE :+1:
if its AP :-1:

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

I love these kitties GIFs lol.

On topic, I agree on the Chi ha Kai part. Not the Chi he. I am pretty sure Chi he has better armour and good gun than most BR I Allied tanks.

Valentine at BR1 is insane, its a BR2 for sure.

I mean hell, if we ever see the up armoured soviet version, we would see it as a BR3.

Armour 0.31–2.56 in (8–65 mm)
Main
armament Mk I–VII: QF 2-pounder (40 mm)

its as much br1 as chi-he
47mm gun 50mm armor

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.

Nah Chi-Ha hull have about +15mm armor than T26
T26 will be pen by BR1 ATR 100%
But Chi-ha is unlikely to be pen by Boys ATR

T70:hey guys what about me?I also stay in br1.

Bro the T-70 ain’t that good, it’s side armor is awful

it has 2 man crew also

Strangely enough I do think Panzer III J is equal to Crusader.

Less important than frontal armor

I love the Panzer III J, IMO, it’s the best BR I tank.

Actually I’d say it’s frontal armor is rather good

My point exactly.

T70 has great frontal armor

Yeah, and awful side armor, a 2 man crew, and I don’t think it has very good transmission, so it’s BR I.

Well its better than T50 in my mind - though that feels more like a reason to move T50 to BR1 instead.

T-50 is better tank then the Crusader it has 4 man crew and better armor. Its the only Lower BR tank i play with USSR.

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.

Well Panzer III J indeed really isnt that much different to Panzer III J1, but I like to argue that J1 in BR2 is kinda mediocre.
