Honestly idk how your team couldn’t have killed him, the M5A1 can Destroy Pz 3N reliably at up to 1200m away or 1.2km …
Or up to like 600m with the worse ammo

remember people the damaged models of vehicles are not fully working, also the rounds that we use in tanks in war thunder like panzer 3 n would have died from a Sherman gun hitting its turrent soo yeah i think damage done right now is not properly working.
Yeah well done you, as i said, i dont need advice on how to kill tanks, i think tanks play to large a role right now and need to be changed to better suit this mostly infantry based game.
Im not here to argue with you, im stating my opinion that you can disagree with due to your own reasoning.
What role do they play, other than glorified mobile MG nest? The HE is shit, they cannot cap inside the vehicle, etc
From my experience, they take attention away from the main objective, as in One Puma can halt the entire US army advances on Normandy, with not much option for the standard squads to deal with it.
That would be fine in itself as you would have had to deal with that kind of situation, but when you spend 15 mins trying to get up to the location of the tank, it catches a glimpse of your retarded squad running up to it, it somehow throws it into reverse and zooms away within seconds of seeing movement.
Now lets say i manage to blow it up, great, now i can return to the actual game, and continue the objective…Oh wait, theres another tank thats just spawned in, sitting up on the hill, doing the exact same thing.
Yeah i can spawn in a tank to kill their tank, I dont want to have to do that everytime someone else spawns in a tank. Planes are useless unless you fly them, if you fly them, then no one spots the tanks. Bomber squads are unlocked too late in the campaign, leaving lower levels with an essential suicide bomb to deal with the endless supply of tanks.
I will end this by saying all of these issues are mainly with the Normandy campaign, its almost too easy to destroy tanks in moscow. Edit to say: From what i remember, i dont play moscow as much anymore, it might be different now
It doesn’t carry passengers. Doesn’t make for a good IFV. Infantry riding on StuGs and T-34s does a better job.
You mean add on armor to the StuGs and T-34s yeah?
yeah, try to shoot the barells of tanks.
you will make no damage what so ever.
nedless to say that tanks can survive ats even if the bomb landed on the roof, tracks damage are still off.
the entire tank system it’s compleatly wacky.
I feel tanks have too much power at the moment, moving the AT squad down a few spots on the campaign tree should fix the issue. Although maybe their damage model being fixed is the needed solution.
Who need working hitboxes?
It feels like they copied more from HnG than from WT.
Puma damage models were always broken in War Thunder as well.
Its not just the Puma. Or am I the only one who never manages to destroy the ammo of tanks?
Lol. And i just turn it orange or red with direct AP ammo hits.
Fuck I wish MY PTRD hit where I aimed it
I had the same issue on the DDAY map with a PZIIIN. I was finally able to build an AT gun in a sneaky spot but then bounced 4 rounds off this front armor and he destroyed the emplacement.
We had a P51 who apparently had no interest in bombing it while it was marked for 5 min straight.
Meanwhile I had the opposite.
While I can still land repeated direct hits on Pumas with my rockets without penning, today I just OHKed the IIIN with a single rocket through its spaced armor from my P-38.
I was literally five feet from the side of a T60 or whatever the tiny russian tanks are mag dumping my pzb into it and didn’t even manage to kill it. just kept wounding crew turning diff components y ellow.
Last saturday I managed to OHK a Puma with the HE of the M1 cannon though I aimed for the engine.
I can’t remember if it was the T-26 or the BT-7, but a while back I shot underneath a panzer III with soviet 45mm HE and actually did serious damage to it.
I heard it was doable in war thunder with 105mm HE, but wasn’t expecting that; I was aiming for a track because I wanted to switch to AP.
