Oh well HE only meh i agree whats worst that could happen?
It has HEAT tho?
Why are german mains like this?
Tanks should be balanced with enemy tanks not what infantry can do.
Vast majority of tank engagements don’t/won’t happen like that
There weren’t MGs in the models in WT, so devs probably didn’t want to take the time to model a new version with MGs in the infantry based game

Technically the sherman 105 has heat and the KV-2 has some other bunker-busting shell, yet they’re excluded
It surely has irregular armor, I would actually compare it to KV1 alot, just with some more weakspots
Ex Germany Main to beggin with (now USSR bias lover and hater of retarded teams just like 80% of ussr playerbse is)
But well replying to that is pointless since i alr agreed with You that only HE is more than reasonable

I’m personally not a fan of the 152mm vehicles in BR3. Sure some of them might be lightly armoured but the nature of many maps in the game means that getting close enough to them with AT infantry is not realistic even if you’re using guerilla squads. Hell, there have been instances where even locating them in the first place is a challenge, even with the system where the game shows them after they kill you.
It has 80mm frontal armor. Sherman pens 102-104. Track armor is what? 14mm? That’s atleast 90mm there, the slope probably adds another 10 or so. With angling it shouldn’t penn unless I’m just missing some info
You literally have the penetrable parts outlined in green, from the official warthunder shot calculator

The Sherman 105 in WT does not? Well given the design of the axis tanks the US 105 mm can kill most axis tanks by taking advantage of thin roofs when it uses just HE.
But the allied/soviet tank often do not share that weakness due to slopeing their armor.

Yes it does have heat in wt
Funny how shermans can’t pen this guy at all here in Enlisted. It’s got the same armor values as the suggested stuh with a similar slope. Sherman can’t penn it anywhere frontally.
Look at my message with pictures just above this one. Sherman ain’t penning it. Love how you claim it’s a skill issue though to completely disregard valid concerns.
Come on, Jagdpanzer IV/70 has 80mm of slopped armor, this has similar, if not better Armor than Panther, and it is nowhere near as weak as the StuG/StuH armor.
Stug has flat panels on the from, and the LFP is weak as well… It would be like saying that the Panzer IV has a strong armor.

Premium tank + it is not 105 sherman/ kv 2 analogue. Germany needs howitzer tank with just HE shells and preferably some armor as well
Open top, no armour and locked behind event. Definitely not close to 105 sherman or kv 2

Hu? STUH has almost flat armor - that Jagdpanzer IV L70 has Panther like frontal armor

you are aiming at sloped 80mm armor, while StuHs has sloped 30 mm & flat 80 mm

Come on?! They have the same amount of frontal armor?! The stat page he sent says 80 frontal, just like this one!
