The team overall is pretty good, the Thompson SMG is good too, but the issue that i have is the supply box that comes with them in matches.
Does anyone else agree that the supply box needs to be remade and redone to be more player-friendly for higher ranked matches.
For example, the AT class gives anti-tank mines which are fine, the issue is the fact that it gives you the M1 Bazooka as well instead of the M9 Bazooka. The M1 has 60mm of pen while the M9 has 110mm of pen.
When you come up against Panthers, Tigers and Konigstigers. Which would you rather get out of the box?
The M1 Bazooka can be used in penetrating a Panther tank, but it is still quite hard. The M1 would be better suited for Pnz IVs and IIIs. M9 is better used against the Panthers and Tigers etc as the M9 can handle thicker armor.
Personally, I would like to be allowed to customize the inside of the supply box just like regular equipment.
Set up your own paratroopers’ carry weapons and supply box, and it will be reflected in the BR.
Agreed, or at least the box will supply with the best currently unlocked version of the weapons. I was wondering why the Bazooka it gives was so crap then i realized that it was the M1 and not the M9 so it was obvious why it was bad.
‘‘Later in WWII, the Bazooka is no longer effective against more advanced German Armor , like Panther and Tiger tank, or other heavy Assault Gun. Allied Soldiers sometimes loot for Panzerfaust or Panzerschreck instead using Bazooka.’’
Imagine having the M1 with 60mm of pen and trying to ammo rack the Konigstiger. (You can ammo rack the Konigstiger in Warthunder by shooting the rear of the turret where a lot of ammo is stored)
Remember, that 60mm is armor pen alone, if it barely just makes it through then its not going to have enough power to do damage inside. The M1 can pen the side of a Panther turret at rather close range, however it wont pen the front plate of either the hull or the turret. And the rear armor of the Konigstiger laughs as the M1 fails to penetrate it.
