US was worse than Germans but now they catch up.
But for Japanese this is a bit of a disaster. They are now outclassed in tanks, planes, they dont have am assault rifle and especially: they dont have a counter to the American AT.
Only select fire rifles are better. For japanese players it will be like a year ago during the merge, being outclassed everywhere
(But they probably stil win consistently )
As Gaijin’s own wiki (M26 T99 - War Thunder Wiki) mentioned, “[the T99] rocket launchers were attached on M26 serial number 2011, the 250th of its kind made from Detroit Tank Arsenal.”
You know that the japanese loved to more or less copy existiting weapon systems they bought and give it a new name? They did that with alot of stuff even before WW 2 kicked off.
Even a small number of tanks is still remarkable given how rare tanks are compared to small arms.
Ab batch of 10 tanks is on a way diffrent scale than 10 rifles.
And how long was the tank parked until the T99 rack was completed?
They had little reason to rush them to a frontline instantly but could afford to put some to the side to tinker on it. The construction date of the chassis alone is nearly worthless.
Otherwise the Panzer 3 N would be an early war tank as it uses a retrofited panzer 3 chassis.
AR really doesnt matter when type hei AR is better than any AR and is equippable by almost all soldiers.
their fighters are better than US fighters, but they suck at CAS. also they need air spawns for low BR. hopefully they give some good CAS options in update after this one.
their low BR tanks are trash and they definitely need work on that. idk how ho ri will perform against super pershing so i will reserve my opinion on that.
agreed that japan needs good AT rocket launcher. they are now like US was year ago against KT
i could probably be AFK for whole match and japan would still easily win
The M1944 which only was tested as prototype and now is not in existence today (so few were build…) is a fully available TT gun? 900rpm?! It fired from 600 rpm upwards - why not give the gun this value like the MG42 that also got the lowest possible rpm value? Oh, I forgot…bad bad germanz.
Super Pershing: If I remeber correct, ONE tank was sent to europe for testing. That seems to be enough to make it a TT tank…
German AT-launcher for US: Are you fucking kidding me? Every nation got pro’s and con’s (but that only is for axis and japan I guess).
MG42 with 100rds: Finaly and well deserved, but stop talking about “most authentic form”. The gun is still castrated with those 990rpm.
US MG42: Since WHEN does the US need this weapon?
This update is a pure mess and a perfect example why I will continue NOT paying one single penny to the developers. BR5 will stay a no-go-area as before - beside russian prototype paradies the US will join them now.
After AS-44 has become a TT weapon (despite having just 7 prototypes) you should’ve know that more prototypes would get added as ordinary guns. If a Conders was be used as any other nation it would become a TT weapon despite having just one copy.
and the us should be the only faction with the majority of it soldiers armed with semi autos all others should be force to use a large number of bolt action you know like in the real war
this was community wish from way before t20 was introduced.
at least it is real ww2 tank. US needed counter to KT and pershing was more of a counter to panther/tiger.
US and japan lack high BR AT rocket launcher. also one of more requested features by community. also please tell me what are cons of german and soviets? US and japan are mostly lacking in equipment which is finally being introduced.
They have a single plane that is better than allied fighters in some respects. A german player cycling BF109s and 190s will have a much easier time fighting allied rocket spam.
