US Tanks suffer from either having a decent gun or decent armor save at br5 where the sp which gets neither. it be an amazing gun if the loader was not a centurion having fought in the american civil war. the T26E5 has a decent gun and armor. A real counterpart to the Tiger 2h it be perfect in the tech tree. with the wheeraboo begging for rockets the allies need a solid br5 tank.

T26E5 - War Thunder Wiki

The T26E5 “Jumbo Pershing” is a heavily armored American prototype heavy tank (27 built in 1945) designed for breakthrough assault, featuring a 90mm gun, enhanced 152mm+ frontal armor, and good gun depression. It acts as a durable, close-range brawler in War Thunder and World of Tanks, offering superior protection to the M26, though it suffers from mediocre mobility and a relatively slow, heavy feel. T26E5. The Jumbo Pershing as it could be called. : r/Warthunder

wait is there a tank i am missing besides the garbage pershing and super perhing

Both can frontally kill KT2.
While no matter how you aim you cant switch the bombload to rockets.

skill issue.

kt2h br4 allied tanks struggle to kill
sp can be killed easily by a br3 axis tank
thats not a skill issue thats a balance issue
kt2h great armor, great penetration, great rate of fire
sp gun shield 15 coverage 85 % tissue paper slow rate of fire

BR4 -/- BR5.
Considering the skill issue tank you are moaning here is BR5 obviously, how is it going to fix this issue of yours ?

Well kinda, GE has always lacked a proper air power. Definitely something that needs to be addressed.

i agree the allies need better tank and the axis needs better attackers
but the sp is not an equal match for the k2h why does the 2mm larger gun take 150% the time to load as the kh2

you saying skill issue doe not make it true
yes both can pen each other
both have great pen
the kh2
has a better reload
and better armor
what does the sp have

Its almost just like every murrican plane is better than its counterpart.

Fix that.

its like almost every axis tank is better than every allied tank (us/uk)
they can fix the plane problem when they fix the tank problem
sorry but the m3 75mm is a punchline for a reason

Cool.
Except Plane > tank.

Plane can kill the tank rather easily, tank cant really kill the plane.

So go be bad somewhere else.

youre right but axis tanks kill allied tanks easier then allied tanks, there better
just like allied attackers are better than axis attackers , so get some cheese for the wine
because those allied cloaking fields mean axis attackers cant kill allied tanks

So complete air supremacy and planes > tanks.

Do explain what are you struggling with here ?

one free to players dont bring planes
a lot of people are asking for german planes with massive cannon armaments and rockets
so currently there is no great need for the t26e5, in the future with a stronger german attackers a great need

So someone being labeled with console icon and not being the sharpest pen in the drawer is your reason ?
Like are you even serious ?

No shit ? Game used to have complete air supremacy for murrica and GE was better on ground.
The ground is now balanced to point that outside of that tiny inconvenience that you need to aim with your tank its red vs blue.

While absolutely nothing has been done to balance the complete air supremacy of murrica.

Ah gotcha, maybe you should ask F22 raptor and M1 abrams “just incase” if in future they are needed.

Have you see how stupidly long the shell of the SP are and how they are stored?

Now compare that to the KT size and layout
grafik

Just saying this cannon is only 2mm larger so why are they not the same is just dishonest at best.

The SP eighter needs to rotate each shell 90 degrees first without slaming it into the turretbasket or take a shell from the floor half of which are even facing the wrong way so even more rotating in a camped tank…
Lets just say the layout of the SP isnt great.

ok then give me the 26e5 instead
no they are not balanced you saying something does not make it true
i am sick of hearing about allied air superiority
sorry if the choice is add axis attackers better than the best allied attackers id rather remove the super pershing
ok there is a reason for the long reload time that does not make it as good as the t2h
add the same shield to the front of the hull the turret has fixed
or rip the worthless shield off and lather decent armor over the entire tank, give it a decent load time the 26e5

Unfortunately I really cant grant anything.
Especiatly if its due to your skill issue or due to you being such a whiner.

Perhaps you should use it then, so you probably would figure out how disproportionally OP it is.

well i was tunning out youre winning about allied air superiority the same way you did about axis armor superiority which was only made world with a monster td

Oh no !! Theres that tank that I could destroy if I simply could aim.
Is there anything I can do ?? If only there was something like most OP air supremacy that could deal with the tank.

Plane > tank.

Murrica got pershings so KT2 definitely is not impervous anymore.
Murrica got ofenförörörörö to deal with KT2

And what exactly GE got to deal with completely uncontested air supremacy of US ?
AA gun ? If only it wasnt the same BR1 gun
Planes ? Not exactly up to task

Like how deep in your nose you got to push the crayon to even remotely consider these as equal balance issues ?
