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

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.

Well yes but if it was BR I would be very very good tank 
You mean like the Matilda? At Br2?
Well its the best BR I tank there is no other tank with such armor and cannon and good mg.
I agree with the Chi-Ha Kai to BR1 middling armour and cannon, the HE in it isn’t anything to write home about either. As for the Chi-He I think it’s armour is just enough to justify it remaining in BR2

Good armor: yes
Good gun: yes
Good MG: the same as on most German tanks
However this is good for BR I, in BR II, it wouldn’t be too good, and especially when there’s a better version at the same br, and imagine it getting uptiered. It’s fine at BR I.

Its the same tank almost like J1 but funny enough here J is better then J1 since you have better HE shells in war thunder this tank don’t have HE shells. So from all the BR I tanks that’s my favorite. It should be same BR as Chi-Ha-Kai since they are very similar tanks the J is even better then Chi-Ha-Kai.
its even better then Chi-He since it has machine gun. And slightly more armor and speed and better gun.
