The US military needs T29 or T30 heavy tanks

This garbage Pershing is completely unable to compete with the Japanese coffin tank

Those would be too much right now, a super pershing would make more sense to add and Im expecting it to come in the next major update.

Patience my friend, DF will add Superpershing, that will be a true match to the Tiger II.

I have seen the coffin die in the hands of 105MM several times
They are closer to convertibles in nature
Maybe you could try using high explosive rounds

About super Pershing. Did they confirm it will be a tech tree tank? Or it will be a premium cash grab?

Im pretty sure that super pershing will be TT.

Funny how a Super Pershing was teased alongside with a Pershing like 6 months ago, it’s taking them quite long to finish it.

well there were apparently closer to finishing the pershing than the super pershing

Keep in mind that once Superpershing is released, Pershing will become overlooked, until that Pershing has some time to shine so DF might be holding it back on purpose.

It’s not a matter of if, it’s when

T29 versus that gas turbine KT yes

I would see the T29 or T28 instead of the Super Pershing, where the Super Pershing and this is an interesting story only had a better gun because the plates on the front of the M26E4-1 turret were cut from the armor of destroyed Panther tanks.

T29 is 1:1 a KTH btw
Albeit easier to kill in all regards other than the mantlet

To be honest i have to agree with the need of something like the T-29 Heavy Tank. As much as i love the Pershing, it often times comes up short in fight’s. A good Tiger 2 player will never give you the opportunity to shoot their weak points and they can kill you with one shot anywhere. And i don’t really feel like Super Pershing is gonna really even out the playing field unless they make it where a Tiger 2 Can’t instantly pen your armor. In War Thunder both the Pershing/Super are BR 6.7 while King Tiger is 7.0

Again the Pershing is capable of killing Tiger 2’s. It’s just a bit difficult, i also find myself getting killed by Panzer 4’s while in a Pershing but that’s do to them hitting my turret traverse and destroying me in one shot. And then we have the Ho-Ri Production tank. Let’s be real there’s not a single US tank that can even beat that thing in a front fight. The Pershing will fall flat no matter what you try to do against them. And considering the Ho-Ri is a prototype tank that wasn’t even built. VS a Prototype Tank that has seen 5-8 being built in the T29. I don’t see why we can’t have the T-29. If they are giving out prototype tanks like that then the US should get one as well. T29 is BR 7.0 which matches up pretty well in the lineup compared to other tanks. And it would feel like an actual Heavy tank for the US
