Move the Jagdpanther to BR4 [Redux]

Why do you need the extra pen of 76 when fighting German tanks with imaginary armor that gets punched through by 75? Because it’s good in uptier? Then… I think at 4 is where it’s perfect… theoretically it should be going against panthers and tiger H1 which it can both pen frontally… and can pen the tiger 2 if it turns its turret which is not hard to wait for… but not very special anymore since they buffed the 75 Sherman shell.

While I didn’t think it was necessary for the open top TDs but they had the glaring downside of being open top this is just the same Sherman, but with better ammo stowage and turret… why just a direct upgrade in the same BR? I mean… we did get PZ 4 H down tiered… but that was just turret traverse… which could be argued is better than a cannon change.

But I’m sure.
if there was any good Armor, maybe he would have been deservedly sitting on 5 br, but as it is, his Armor is worse than that of the Su-100
The presence of the tower makes it stand out a little against the background of the Su-100, and it is more convenient to use it, but still, it is difficult to realize, I think there should not be 5 st without any armor. even sometimes the M26 can tank the KVK 43, but not the T-34

T-34-100 makes up for having a turret with MG tho. It is a huge advantage compared to Su-100 and i don’t think they belong to the same BR. The armor is kind of beside the point as not many tanks can withstand Kwk 43 88mm in the first place anyway. Altho i guess you could argue that T-34-100 is much more vulnerable to shots from BR 4 tanks. Personally, i think it’s 4.5 BR tank and i’m fine with it being on BR 5 for the time being but BR 4 maybe could works too ig.

Yea, 76mm HE is pretty bad and it’s basically a sidegrade of 75mm. But, i don’t know. BR 3 makes sense but then again we do have M18 and M10 with 76mm on BR 3 already and 75mm Sherman already rips apart any BR 3 germany/japan tanks. Maybe, M4A1 sherman with 76mm could go down to BR 3 with it’s APCR taken away since people never uses M4A1 76mm compared to M4A2 76mm anyway. Gives some incentive to the players to actually bring M4A1 76mm for once i guess.

Sure it does, it’s how germany and U.S. vehicles balance out. Panther and tiger h1 are leaps and bounds better than allies’ tanks, and if jadgpanther goes to br4 that’s just one more that completely outclasses the allies’. Planes would balance the scales between vehicles. Tempest should also come down to balance this out.

It gets ripped apart in br4, sure it’s still viable but something with 20mm cannons would be better.

P51, flies like dog shit, and again no 20mm cannons. I don’t believe in intentionally crashing your plane immediately after spawn in.

Yes… a fast attacker with 4x 500 lbs gets ripped apart in BR 4. At this point, i’m not even sure that we are playing the same game.

P-51 flies like a dogshit. lmao. Have you actually tried it with new 30% fuel or are you just saying stuff? Also 20mm is nice to have but ultimately inconsequential because your main job as pilot is to bomb the ground targets and support the ground not sitting in the airplane looking at the sky, indefinitely waiting for enemy airplanes to show up.

No, i actually haven’t tested it out, i generally use other planes over it.

I do wish they’d give the br2 version 2x 250lbs though to give me a reason to use it there.

We do have P-51C-10 but with only 2x 100 lbs bombs. 2x 250 lbs bombs instead of 2x 100 lbs bombs would be nice too i suppose, since Bf109 got 4x 50kg bombs on BR 2.
