You can kill T-34s and Shermans you could change 1 APHE and 1 HE for have like 8 HEAT shells those are for KVs
We don’t have shermans with the armor plates on the turret weakspot soo just shoot there and the Sherman just get deleted
StuH 42 shouldnt even have AP shells.
If it carried them in any quantity, they would be completely useless in an uptier while in downtier it would incentivise using them against tanks like T-50 and Crusader while using HEAT shells against infantry.
Besides, SU-122 already carries HEAT shells.

That’s BS and everyone knows it. You can theoretically kill Sherman and T-34 with it but that does not mean that it’s effective nor useful.
Again, there’s literally no reason to penalize it by giving APHE. It’s a turretless tank without even coax MG and the overall protection is less than the Sherman M4A2.

Something on parr to the sherman 105 gun/shells. The alecto doesn’t compare at all.
Something not open and is totally enclosed. Don’t even really care about the armor that much as long as bullets can’t penn.
In my knowledge, there’s no allied tank that fits this prerequisites other than the Sherman 105mm. If it has 105mm then it’s an open-topped vehicle, if it’s an enclosed tank then it has no 105mm.
I think Churchill V CS with 95mm would work on BR 3. The gun isn’t as powerful as other big HE but it can be compensated by having much more armor all-around and fast rotating turret than the others while the frontal protection being not as unfair as Sherman 105mm used to be.
Churchill AVRE Petard is on WT they can add that one 230mm mortar Churchill
Not really, it would once again cause the same issue as before: the armour would be too thick for BR II tanks, BR II AT launchers and low BR AT guns.
Cromwell with QF 95mm MK.I would be a far better fit for BR III as it does not have too thick armour, but has excellent mobility and machine guns to make up for the weaker HE shells than the M4A3 (105) while still having HEAT strong enough to destroy any tank it may come across.

A 150mm gun on some of the tanks in the game already pushing it.
I don’t think it’s wise to add another one that shoots 230mm HE in the game.

The Max range is 130mm and for im It you will need a comander It will be stupidly inprecise because you have to aim to the sky
It would be much easier to kill than KV-1 tho. And we already have Churchill 3 in the game which has even more armor than the Churchil 5 CS yet it’s so much easier to kill than KV-1 because it has no BS overlapped armor on the turret. It wouldn’t cause much problem.
This would works too, i’m not against it.

Not 130mm 130 meters idk why i added another m
Yes but it doesn’t change the fact that it has 230mm HE. It will cause a problem for how powerful the HE is and i don’t like it. A 150mm HE in the game already pushing it.

Again, the alecto’s gun is horrendous. If the stuh gun/shells act just as poorly then it’s whatever. If it’s on similar levels to the sherman 105, then i think it’s bullshit.
Or if they buff the QF 95mm to be better than how the alecto is currently via better shells that’s fine too.
If it comes down to open top with u.s. 105 or cromwell with alecto power, I’d rather the open top 105 then.
I would be open to the churchill only because of it’s armor, but i already know the community will say it’s too good just like the sherman 105
The StuH 42´s shells are a bit better than what the Alecto I has, but its still much weaker than HE shells of M4A3(105), if we consider that QF 95mm howitzer is faster to reload, than a Cromwell/Churchill would be reasonably balanced against a StuH 42 on BR III.
There are vehicles that existed in real life, but they are not in War Thunder. Same currently true for the mentioned Churchill and Cromwell variants so it would be possible to ask for them nicely (and pray that the snail makes them).
The StuH has the 105mm howitzer right?
doesn’t really mean it can’t be added it not being in war thunder is not really an excuse because there are vehicles in enlisted that are completely unique to enlisted although the snail really should add the Humvee TOW to war thunder as well as the M151A2.
Yes, it quite literally is… besides the APCs and jeeps there are only a few vehicles I am aware of that aren’t in war thunder.
There is slim to no chance of a tank or anything that requires modeling from the ground up vehicle wise to be added… I mean it takes them months to model a single jeep so… imagine for a tank.
well, they didn’t model a single jeep they modeled 1 for each nation and 2 event vehicles which doesn’t just require modeling it’s looking up specs as well as reference images but the fact is THAT REGARDLESS OF HOW LONG IT TOOK THEY MODELED THEM AND PUT THEM IN THE FUCKING GAME! it also would not take that much time or effort to modify the m3 model into a priest we have the Chasse we only really need the gun.
