Fr,Swe PF rounds work but doesnt have IRST...Ger Puma has IRST but gaijin added AHEAD wrong on purpose...and the OTOMAGIC gets a massive br nerf...but ppl still denies the bias...
and also they made ATGM launcher On the CV9040 bill 10.0 variant so you have in fixed in place instead of it being able to move like on Bradley UP/DOWN
it can't be loaded 3 at a time, all the spare ammo is stored in individual rounds rather than clips and there is only space for one round to be inserted at a time on the port of each clip
I think it has to do with the SU25 still being poorly modeled. You can only trigger proxy rounds on the central part of the aircraft and not the wings. It’s another case of Le Russian bias, where they refuse to fix something broken.
Love the 9040's. The SPAA variant of it, lvkv 9040C, I once got 10 air kills in a single game with it. Was absolutely nuts. Probably one of my fave AA in the game. Recently got the ASRAD though and that thing's pretty fun too.
The main problem I have with all the 9040's is 1 the 500m arming distance for proxy shells making you miss ALOT of shots on planes flying at you due to it not arming in time and 2 the 24 ready rack that takes AGES to reload fully if you empty it, I'm not sure but it looks like the 9040 gun uses a magazine to feed it so I think it can be switched out for a new one full of 24 rounds but I didn't do my research just heard some things from a few friends so I'm assuming here tell me if I'm wrong though. I still would like to see the spaa version of the 9040 get a buff to its ready rack because 24 rounds is not enough to kill planes with when just shooting and I don't want to have to worry about my ammo and tap fire a spaa for gods sake. let me also say the first-stage ammo stowage needs 3 second to start reloading, then 2 seconds to reload one bullet, then more 3 seconds to start reloading the first-stage again, taking 54 seconds total between the last shot and being full again and if you empty the magazine to just 1 round left its still 51 seconds total to get from 1 to 24 in the ready rack and that's for all 9040's, while it takes 4.8 seconds of continuous firing to drain the 24 ammo ready rack, its horrendous in any fight that requires constant shooting to not die. I love playing the 9040's and do well in them but these problems annoy me personally and get me killed a lot in them just my opinion though. Sit the 9040 on a point though and you sir have a fun time as anti tank and anti cas very fun.
IRL STRF driver here. The reload is actually a bit faster in game than it is IRL. The gunner loads the shells in to 3 different slots one at a time. Meaning you can not aim the gun while loading unless the commander takes over. even then you can't really fire the gun unless you want to risk breaking the gunner hands.

For scouting I think you should be able to reset missed scouts by doing damage, that way if you are willing to expose yourself you can have the penalties go away.
The refresh mechanic on scouting really makes no sense and I doubt it would be too good if it was removed "Welp, I saw the tank but didn't point my sight within 10cm of the vehicle's centre so I have to wait half a minute until I can talk to the friendlies again, better turn off the radio"
@@CallmeRoth Yeah I know, but at the same time I think it's quite dumb that you can scout 1 out of 4 tanks crossing an open field and potentially jeopardising your team's position because there are a lot more than you can see on the map
i'm finding it a bit biased, that both the bmp2m which is just better, with amazing atgm's and the 2s38 with double the pen and double first stage storage both sit at 10.0 with that thing. both of those tanks are also quite a bit faster, and both get gen 2/3 thermals as well...
Ehh after the missile changes the BMP-2M isnt as oppressive. Though I suppose its just cause I love using the 9040s and easily kill BMPs/2S38. The 9040 B and C and BILL all have Gen 2 thermals.
Yesssss Justin is playing my favorite ifv! I think the small ready rack can be foxed with the historical reloading of 4 round clips that are used irl, instead of 1 at a time.
It is over shadowed by the 2s38 for very valid reasons. But to me sticking my ass to inexperienced MBTS and baiting a shot into my empty ass around corners is something that has worked. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

I got this a month or two ago and at about 5 minutes you said it doesn't have much armor, but it 100% does, I've eaten sabot rounds to the front, multiple in a row with no damage. It's kind of a beast. Also the Lvkv combo with this is less pen on darts but radar and tracking for a smaller cost. I fucking love the combo

I love this little tank! Kinda sad to see it doesn't have optical tracking, combined with proxy fuses most of the time exploding and not getting even a hit or anything x.x
My biggest annoyance with the C variant is the cost for ammo. Like the BMP-2M gets a full belt of darts for the same cost of a few 40mm darts? That is insanity. And I really need to look up why they halved the Cs ammo storage. Not sure if that is accurate or not.
@@CallmeRoth bro what? A full rack of ammo that can be blown away in 5 seconds costs over 2.5k SL. Now do that at least three times in a match on average and you’re up to 7.5k SL just for ammo. Meanwhile, stuff like the BMP-2M get a whole belt of darts for like 250 SL.
Just got into 8.7 on Sweden and im just looking forward to get into 10.0 so badly atm. But really want to enjoy 8.7 and 9.3 since they got vehicles I want to use.
8.7 was great. A really really great Step up from all the trash. But 10.0 is WAYYYY better than 9.3 its not even comparable. Maybe by now youve seen how much better it is. That 9030Fin Is straight dogshit
I really don't mind the 24 round ready rack to be honest, I use 3 round salvos - either it blows up, or I've damaged it enough that I can take my time taking it apart. Or just scout it and leave it for my teammates to clean up :D The only drawback is that it's not as mobile as I feel it should be. It's quite sluggish.
I dunno about instant cooldown or reset for scouting, but half the cooldown on missed scouts at least. The timer is unreasonably long especially when you can clearly see the enemy, it's only a few hundred meters out, but because of a unrendered bush or rock, it doesn't count towards the scout and puts you on a full cooldown.
Hey Justin, love your videos as always! Always fun to watch and learn new things from them even after having played on and off since 2013! One question I do have, if you don't mind, is about your sound settings and audio setup for the game. I notice you and most other UA-camrs/streamers who play this game will pickup and notice sounds that aren't even audible or discernible in direction in anyway to me (usually just hear my teammates 90% of the time vs enemies) So I was just wondering what your setup for the audio side of the game is, seems like there's a lot of room for improvement regarding that on my end.
Thank you :D Just a fine tuned EQ using my headsets software. Steelseries does a pretty good job with spatial awareness, plus I believe I just have good hearing. Works well outside of gaming too
@@JustinPlaysTV Thank you for taking the time to answer! I may have to have a look at some of my headsets settings for WT then, mess around with it a bit, could also be due to using the Stereo setting in game but not certain. Yeah, I generally have very good hearing for other games I play but struggle with WT sometimes in figuring out what direction something is until it's on top of me/too late haha. Again, thank you for answering and keep up the great content, love your videos/streams and have done for years! You're awesome.
Yeah I'm wondering about a lot of things as are others. Seems like none of the nations can have anything that fully competes with the 2s38, of course. This should have the optical tracking. And something that I literally just had happen tonight, another blatant example of opposite of Russian bias, it's ridiculous. I'm in my German PUMA and am seeing a Leo teammate fighting a T80UK pointblank so I drive up right around it circling it and shooting it everywhere with the darts over and over, doing damage but not enough to destroy it, and I'm hitting everything, gun, engine, sides, crew, turret. It was probably 20-30 shots and it finally blew up after setting it on fire. Now contrast that with usually when I face a 2s38 in any of my top tier mbts, Leo2a6 or 5, Abrams etc, it can easily destroy me in 1 or 2-3 hits. It's ridiculous the bias and advantage they have. Not just the 2s38 of course but that's an example I'm comparing to the PUMA. It's ridiculous. I literally had to pop smoke and wait for reload incase he got his gun back, because he must have taken out my teammates ability to fire. The PUMA should be able to do way more damage and this vehicle in your video should have other options as well. This company deserves a big ass lawsuit of some type making a particular nation have advantages over others that shouldn't be here.
The su25 has a notoriously annoying damage model and the a10 has a notoriously annoying damage model just in the opposite sense that its really easy to kill
I wouldn’t mind the refresh time of scout. However, can Gaijin just fix the scout? I occasionally missed the scout while the enemy was in the middle of my binoculars showing their turrets in full.
I've been noticing a LOT of people with chinese names in my games, noticed it's happening in yours too. I have my game set to NA server only, did they merge servers or anything?
this change would be fine if they atleast gave it realistic reload times. a trained crew going for speed can reload the rack in less than 20 seconds. thats less than one second/round instead of the 3 seconds/round we have now. also the amount of time before reload starts after firing needs to be reduced.
As far as gameplay goes I do agree that the reload needs a buff. However that is a bit unlikely since the reload is already a bit faster in game compared to IRL. Especially if you've emptied out the magazine completely. The gunner needs to reset a spring at that point which takes over a minute to do from start to finish.
Type 89: first time? Joking aside, it's acceptable to have "realistic" vehicles but come on...they really have to cut the ammo when the real life change was done in the view of the infantry transported? Jeez this game really like to punish non-russian ifv users...
This thing is my favorite ifv, its so good, though since i gave up with top tier i havent touched it in forever, and i really hate how gaijin nerfed it
Still no clue how this thing is in the same BR as the 2S38, once put a burst of rounds into the middle section from the front and practically only killed the guy in the middle meanwhile he shot me once and i died 💀
ngl it shold be buffed getting its 24 clip reold insted of each shell, and it shold get alot better post pen dmg then it has the gepard has a better post pen dmg then it its just in a sad place it shold be on the same level as the puma and have alot better post pen dmg then it but it sadly dosnt
SU-25s are ridiculously broken. Once one ate 5 Roland 3s for breakfast and only the 6th broke off one of its wings, and he was still be able to fly for a while. Gaijin has to do something about them
They should have left the ammo alone a 120 rounds is not enough rounds in the game period But leave it to the game makers. To screw a vehicle up, we put in the hard work to get The Thing done, and then they f*** it up.
The C model has got much less ammo because of changes in the interior and armor. But it still sucks. I dont think they did it dirty, but they sure as shit arent consistent, I wish modern russian tanks more blowy-upy.
They have pretty much nerfed all threats to the SU-25s and other CAS. Proxy rounds don’t work, 9040C got ammo halved as shown, stingers are worthless. All un needed changes.
For some reason they decided that basically only the LVKV 9040C could use the full ammo stowage (which all CV9040's have) for some weird reason. Also yeah the proxy is so weird I can see it getting triggered and explode and don't even get a hit even though it's literally exploding on the aircraft. Also, the reload rate is worse than what you can do irl, I believe you even reload it 3 rounds at once but I'm not super sure on that one. Also sometimes it just refuses to damage barrels idk why. CV9040 suffering
The IRL reload is actually slower than in game. At least if you count all the steps needed. Like if you empty your ready rack completely it takes around a minute to load the first shot. There’s a hand crank and stuff that needs turning. It takes time to release the individual shells from the carousel, you can only slide them in one at a time. Between every other shot you need to hit a switch to make room for more shells. You can also only fire 8 shots before needing to switch to another compartment and so on. There’s a bunch of other stuff going on as well but in short, the reload is much faster in game than it is IRL.
@@Amexel My assumption is size restraints and maybe for reliability? It’s already pretty cramped in the turret so there’s no room for a bigger magazine or feeding mechanism. I would guess the intended doctrine plays a factor as well. Pop up, unload up to 8 shots, pull back, reload pop up somewhere else. Sweden mainly uses defensive tactics after all.
@@95Karlsson true. It just feels a bit lackluster when there's 30 and 35mm autocannons with double or triple the amount of rounds ready to fire. But as you say, different doctrine and perhaps more realiable. Thanks for the correction!
@@Amexel As far as I was told Sweden went for the 40mm just to pack a bigger punch with each shot. Bigger blast and more shrapnel for the HE shot, more penetration for the darts, potential for more advanced ammunition in the future and so on. I’m sure they had their reasons.
A big mistake people make with this is they aren't being resourceful with their ammunation, I've won a big amount of fights against this and other Swedish IFVs because people try so hard to kill you that they end up wasting all their ammo and until it gets replenished it's too late. 😂
How scouting is rn is fine, they just need to make it way more consistent. Its like is just a raycast but its blocked by all of the object barriers including trees and such.
It’s not fine. Like if you see a target out in the open on a desert map it sometimes won’t spot and give you a penalty instead. Other times you need to click spot like 10+ times before the spot happens. No penalty during any of those clicks or anything. It just doesn’t spot.
@@sushiman3817 and that’s a problem. So it’s not fine the way it is. When you can engage a target and even hit them but get a penalty when you try to spot said target, the intended mechanic isn’t working properly.
@@airsoftpopcorn The single document that was used in the report to change it only showed the J35 not using tracers for combat, which is true for every nation of the time.
Idk, but I know that for all ground vehicles the stats that they always try to have accurate to real life are ammo count, armor, crew, and engine power
Small apfsds nerfs did not apply to this vehicle. This actually spalls more than the VCC 80/60 or any of the Bushmaster guns. The total ammo doesn't matter either and its a realistic change as the 9040Cs are suppose to be used as IFVs with infantry. The 500 m activation was always 500 m.
@@KwisssThat doesn’t make any sense. The A, B and C variants are all used for infantry and they all have the same ammo stowage. Given where the ammo is stored, removing it wouldn’t give the infantry any more room as it’s already all under the turret.
Hey justin, with the br changes coming soon, you should take out the black prince as the 5.3/5.7 germany is moving up, the black prince will bully tigers and panthers
stupid nerf those tanks dont get played a lot sadly because there just bad in comparison too other autogun tanks atleast give them back the fast reload so dat u can load 4 shell at the same time like it was when there released those tanks
@@Elbereth_TV I doubt it. My source is that I’ve actually served on the 9040 in the Swedish army. Realistically you can only load in one shell at a time. In theory, you could load two since one rack is always blocked. You may be thinking of the way the loaded shells need to be moved down? You put in two shells, one at a time before hitting a switch that makes them fall down two steps in the rack. Then you can load two more. Again, one at a time, before hitting the switch again.
The reload is wrong on the cv90. it feeds from two 8 round clips at the same time, each being reloadable individually. This allows you to feed HE or APFSDS whenever you want and independently, it also lets you reload one clip while the other is dispensed allowing (if reloaded quick enough) continuous fire. It should not reload one round at a time as it does right now, it should be 8 rounds at a time. This has been like this since it was added and it is beyond stupid given at the same time you have vehicles like the ostwind 2 etc that seemingly feeds from an infinite belt, requiring no reload intervals yet they are clearly mag fed.
This is all incorrect. In game reloading is actually a bit faster than it would be IRL. The 9040 feeds its gun from 3 ammunition compartments. Usually darts to the sides and HE in the middle, depending on mission requirements. These three compartments are loaded one shell at a time by the gunner who has to reach down, unstrap the ammo in pairs from the carousel below the turret, slide them in to the desired compartment one at a time, hit a switch to make the first two move lower in to the compartment before repeating the process all over until the compartment is full. He then hits another switch to select a different compartment and repeats the previously mentioned steps, occasionally needing to rotate the carousel or even the turret to be able to reach more shells. Furthermore if you fire until empty you need to screw in a hand crank that needs to be turned for like a minute in order to set a spring in the autoloader mechanism.
Su 25 can withstand a MANPADS and continue to fly, but here is some kind of 40mm projectile... how much fuse does it have compared to a MANPADS? oh yes, unlike the stinger, this projectile also rarely hits the plane directly, it explodes in the air. So there is cant be any "bias"
It’s more like laser tracking. The gunner measures range twice, computer does some math and the laser starts measuring a few times every second to keep updating target location. The gun also moves on its own. The gunner only needs to do inputs if the target maneuvers or changes speed.
Of course its meant to have optical tracking, gaijin considered adding IRST to Swedish IFVs but then decided against it.
Can't have anything that can compare to the 2S38 after all)))))))
Fr,Swe PF rounds work but doesnt have IRST...Ger Puma has IRST but gaijin added AHEAD wrong on purpose...and the OTOMAGIC gets a massive br nerf...but ppl still denies the bias...

I notice you and most other UA-camrs/streamers who play this game will pickup and notice sounds that aren't even audible or discernible in direction in anyway to me (usually just hear my teammates 90% of the time vs enemies) So I was just wondering what your setup for the audio side of the game is, seems like there's a lot of room for improvement regarding that on my end.
Thank you :D
Just a fine tuned EQ using my headsets software. Steelseries does a pretty good job with spatial awareness, plus I believe I just have good hearing. Works well outside of gaming too
@@JustinPlaysTV Thank you for taking the time to answer! I may have to have a look at some of my headsets settings for WT then, mess around with it a bit, could also be due to using the Stereo setting in game but not certain. Yeah, I generally have very good hearing for other games I play but struggle with WT sometimes in figuring out what direction something is until it's on top of me/too late haha. Again, thank you for answering and keep up the great content, love your videos/streams and have done for years! You're awesome.
2 devservers ago they add the optical tracking system to this type of vehicles .. Finally we only get a nerf...
Great timing, I just unlocked this last night and was curious how it plays lol
Weird, my Su-25K gets killed by these things, Begleis and M247s quiet often.
It has gotten a little bit of a boost now because it has gotten spall liners. I wonder if that makes a big diff.
Yeah I'm wondering about a lot of things as are others. Seems like none of the nations can have anything that fully competes with the 2s38, of course. This should have the optical tracking. And something that I literally just had happen tonight, another blatant example of opposite of Russian bias, it's ridiculous. I'm in my German PUMA and am seeing a Leo teammate fighting a T80UK pointblank so I drive up right around it circling it and shooting it everywhere with the darts over and over, doing damage but not enough to destroy it, and I'm hitting everything, gun, engine, sides, crew, turret. It was probably 20-30 shots and it finally blew up after setting it on fire. Now contrast that with usually when I face a 2s38 in any of my top tier mbts, Leo2a6 or 5, Abrams etc, it can easily destroy me in 1 or 2-3 hits. It's ridiculous the bias and advantage they have. Not just the 2s38 of course but that's an example I'm comparing to the PUMA. It's ridiculous. I literally had to pop smoke and wait for reload incase he got his gun back, because he must have taken out my teammates ability to fire. The PUMA should be able to do way more damage and this vehicle in your video should have other options as well. This company deserves a big ass lawsuit of some type making a particular nation have advantages over others that shouldn't be here.
I love how the scout is but when it’s a tank at long distance and the scout won’t count
The su25 has a notoriously annoying damage model and the a10 has a notoriously annoying damage model just in the opposite sense that its really easy to kill
Funny how this doesn’t have irst but 2s38 does have it at the same br 🙃
This had irst in la royale dev server but gaijin removed it
nice vid bro
I wouldn’t mind the refresh time of scout. However, can Gaijin just fix the scout? I occasionally missed the scout while the enemy was in the middle of my binoculars showing their turrets in full.
I've been noticing a LOT of people with chinese names in my games, noticed it's happening in yours too. I have my game set to NA server only, did they merge servers or anything?
The type 90 is still one of my favorites
this change would be fine if they atleast gave it realistic reload times. a trained crew going for speed can reload the rack in less than 20 seconds. thats less than one second/round instead of the 3 seconds/round we have now. also the amount of time before reload starts after firing needs to be reduced.
As far as gameplay goes I do agree that the reload needs a buff. However that is a bit unlikely since the reload is already a bit faster in game compared to IRL.
Especially if you've emptied out the magazine completely. The gunner needs to reset a spring at that point which takes over a minute to do from start to finish.
great that they gave it optical tracking in a dev server but decided to remove it again in the live build
Type 89: first time?
Joking aside, it's acceptable to have "realistic" vehicles but come on...they really have to cut the ammo when the real life change was done in the view of the infantry transported?
Jeez this game really like to punish non-russian ifv users...
Oh thats coming soon, after the BR changes
9040s are really fun but never liked the super limited ammo and slow reload, felt pretty balanced unless you sat on a cap for infinite ammo lol
I may or may not have abused that.. alot xP
I love the CV90s, everyone that I use I do well in.
This thing is my favorite ifv, its so good, though since i gave up with top tier i havent touched it in forever, and i really hate how gaijin nerfed it
Still no clue how this thing is in the same BR as the 2S38, once put a burst of rounds into the middle section from the front and practically only killed the guy in the middle meanwhile he shot me once and i died 💀
Question do I grind Germany or Sweden bc I like both but doesn’t Sweden just have a better leopard? So that’s what’s making me torn on what to pick
Likely Germany for better Heli and CAS/CAP aircraft. Plus the lineup is more fleshed out
@@JustinPlaysTV ok thank you very much!
Nah sweden got better cas!!!!
10:02 YOU GOT A HOLE IN YOUR LEFT WING
ngl it shold be buffed getting its 24 clip reold insted of each shell, and it shold get alot better post pen dmg then it has the gepard has a better post pen dmg then it its just in a sad place it shold be on the same level as the puma and have alot better post pen dmg then it but it sadly dosnt
SU-25s are ridiculously broken. Once one ate 5 Roland 3s for breakfast and only the 6th broke off one of its wings, and he was still be able to fly for a while. Gaijin has to do something about them
Meanwhile A-10 loses his tail control after 8mm mg hit xd
These things perform so poorly in War Thunder. A real shame considering the CV 90 platform is essentially the best IFV platform in the world.
They should have left the ammo alone a 120 rounds is not enough rounds in the game period But leave it to the game makers. To screw a vehicle up, we put in the hard work to get The Thing done, and then they f*** it up.
The C model has got much less ammo because of changes in the interior and armor. But it still sucks.
I dont think they did it dirty, but they sure as shit arent consistent, I wish modern russian tanks more blowy-upy.
Hey Justin please can u play the Leopard 1A5NO & A32A Rod Adam combo video please!
They have pretty much nerfed all threats to the SU-25s and other CAS. Proxy rounds don’t work, 9040C got ammo halved as shown, stingers are worthless. All un needed changes.
For some reason they decided that basically only the LVKV 9040C could use the full ammo stowage (which all CV9040's have) for some weird reason. Also yeah the proxy is so weird I can see it getting triggered and explode and don't even get a hit even though it's literally exploding on the aircraft. Also, the reload rate is worse than what you can do irl, I believe you even reload it 3 rounds at once but I'm not super sure on that one. Also sometimes it just refuses to damage barrels idk why. CV9040 suffering
The IRL reload is actually slower than in game. At least if you count all the steps needed.
Like if you empty your ready rack completely it takes around a minute to load the first shot. There’s a hand crank and stuff that needs turning. It takes time to release the individual shells from the carousel, you can only slide them in one at a time. Between every other shot you need to hit a switch to make room for more shells.
You can also only fire 8 shots before needing to switch to another compartment and so on.
There’s a bunch of other stuff going on as well but in short, the reload is much faster in game than it is IRL.
@@95Karlsson interesting, why is it designed that way? I feel like the Bofors engineers would realize that more ammo ready to fire is advantageous.
@@Amexel My assumption is size restraints and maybe for reliability? It’s already pretty cramped in the turret so there’s no room for a bigger magazine or feeding mechanism. I would guess the intended doctrine plays a factor as well. Pop up, unload up to 8 shots, pull back, reload pop up somewhere else. Sweden mainly uses defensive tactics after all.
@@95Karlsson true. It just feels a bit lackluster when there's 30 and 35mm autocannons with double or triple the amount of rounds ready to fire. But as you say, different doctrine and perhaps more realiable. Thanks for the correction!
@@Amexel As far as I was told Sweden went for the 40mm just to pack a bigger punch with each shot. Bigger blast and more shrapnel for the HE shot, more penetration for the darts, potential for more advanced ammunition in the future and so on.
I’m sure they had their reasons.
The only thing that ruins this tank for me is the ready 24rd rack and she’s HEAAAVY
my proxy rounds half of the time proxy but dont actually do anything they just look like black flak clouds and thats it
20 minutes is the sweet spot
A big mistake people make with this is they aren't being resourceful with their ammunation, I've won a big amount of fights against this and other Swedish IFVs because people try so hard to kill you that they end up wasting all their ammo and until it gets replenished it's too late. 😂
How scouting is rn is fine, they just need to make it way more consistent. Its like is just a raycast but its blocked by all of the object barriers including trees and such.
It’s not fine. Like if you see a target out in the open on a desert map it sometimes won’t spot and give you a penalty instead. Other times you need to click spot like 10+ times before the spot happens. No penalty during any of those clicks or anything. It just doesn’t spot.
@@95Karlsson If you read what I said, then you'd see that's what I said too. "They just need to make it way more consistent."
@@sushiman3817 I’m mainly referring to the part of “it’s being blocked by barriers” part. Hence the example I gave.
@@95Karlsson ray casting has a range in the vast majority of instances which would also be considered an obstacle of sorts.
@@sushiman3817 and that’s a problem. So it’s not fine the way it is.
When you can engage a target and even hit them but get a penalty when you try to spot said target, the intended mechanic isn’t working properly.
As some1 who doesnt play WT, must ask how many hours do you have sunk in it?
Nearly 10k since 2015
What a surprise Gaijin nerfs only NATO stuff...
Could you make a video about strv122 next?
meanwhile 2s38 at the same br is 4 times better and there are people who will say russian bias doesn't exist in this game
Sadly that is the premium problem, new players buy it and don’t know how to play the game, so its br goes down
not really sure why they thought it needs less than 30 seconds of firing time when at a full ammo load (5 sec to empty ready rack)
Realism
@@airsoftpopcorn like how they removed swedish 30 mm tracers for realism, but not any of the other 30 mm tracers that were never used in combat?
@@communisticus191 did sweden use tracers on their 30mms? If not, then it makes sense why it was removed. Do the other 30mms use tracers in training?
@@airsoftpopcorn The single document that was used in the report to change it only showed the J35 not using tracers for combat, which is true for every nation of the time.
@@airsoftpopcorn no, all of the planes with the 30mm(except the saab105/sk60) had radar lead indicators
Do the spaa variant
24 ammo ready rack, total ammo 240->120, volumetric, small apfsds nerf, 40mm proxy HE 500meter activation fuze nerf. Meanwhile bmp2m….
Ammo nerf was for realism, but they should have let it keep its irst
@@airsoftpopcorn if they care about realism then why does it not have the 3p ammo? and why does the 2s38 have hevt?
Idk, but I know that for all ground vehicles the stats that they always try to have accurate to real life are ammo count, armor, crew, and engine power
Small apfsds nerfs did not apply to this vehicle. This actually spalls more than the VCC 80/60 or any of the Bushmaster guns. The total ammo doesn't matter either and its a realistic change as the 9040Cs are suppose to be used as IFVs with infantry. The 500 m activation was always 500 m.
@@KwisssThat doesn’t make any sense. The A, B and C variants are all used for infantry and they all have the same ammo stowage. Given where the ammo is stored, removing it wouldn’t give the infantry any more room as it’s already all under the turret.
This would only be balanced at 9.3 and giving it irst. Or making the ammo rack continuous
Agree with the BR and tracking but the ammo needs to be the way it is.
That is how it works IRL so not much to be done about it unfortunately.
Making it continous wouldn't made it accurate. This does completely fine at 10.0 as i've played this, 9040B, lvkv 9040c and bill a fk load.
13:05 Aaaannnd you're demonitized
MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Howdy justin, how are you this wonderful Sunday?
Still in bed, range day later today :D
Ill bring out my m43/105 Italian td and somehow survive and get kills for an ungodly amount of time
The Strv 9040 BILL and Lvkv 9040C still carry 234 rounds
Yep, because they aren’t being used as ifvs
Hey justin, with the br changes coming soon, you should take out the black prince as the 5.3/5.7 germany is moving up, the black prince will bully tigers and panthers
That looks like a really fun IFV, me wanna drive!, also great content man! and for that it deserves a Sub from me!
Keep it up bud! Happy Tanking
stupid nerf those tanks dont get played a lot sadly because there just bad in comparison too other autogun tanks atleast give them back the fast reload so dat u can load 4 shell at the same time like it was when there released those tanks
HRJA HRJA HRJA
ammo count is kinda irrelevant really for this, the reload of the stowage is ludicrously nerfed from reality
It’s actually noticeably faster in game than it is in reality. 😅
i've seen it in a video, for some reason it's been taken down, but they loaded 2-3 shells in the same time this loads one@@95Karlsson
@@Elbereth_TV I doubt it. My source is that I’ve actually served on the 9040 in the Swedish army. Realistically you can only load in one shell at a time. In theory, you could load two since one rack is always blocked.
You may be thinking of the way the loaded shells need to be moved down? You put in two shells, one at a time before hitting a switch that makes them fall down two steps in the rack. Then you can load two more. Again, one at a time, before hitting the switch again.
Lvkv is just better. Have 5 crew members, aim air targets and costs 70 points.
should have 7 crew
@@einar8019Why would it have 7 its 5 crew to operate the vehicle its not meant to be used as an infantry transport like the 9040C.
@@Kwisss the lvkv 9040 has 7 crew irl thats why, driver, commander, gunnner and 4 radar operators
Day 1 of asking Justin to do a set up tour
The reload is wrong on the cv90. it feeds from two 8 round clips at the same time, each being reloadable individually.
This allows you to feed HE or APFSDS whenever you want and independently, it also lets you reload one clip while the other is dispensed allowing (if reloaded quick enough) continuous fire.
It should not reload one round at a time as it does right now, it should be 8 rounds at a time.
This has been like this since it was added and it is beyond stupid given at the same time you have vehicles like the ostwind 2 etc that seemingly feeds from an infinite belt, requiring no reload intervals yet they are clearly mag fed.
This is all incorrect.
In game reloading is actually a bit faster than it would be IRL.
The 9040 feeds its gun from 3 ammunition compartments. Usually darts to the sides and HE in the middle, depending on mission requirements.
These three compartments are loaded one shell at a time by the gunner who has to reach down, unstrap the ammo in pairs from the carousel below the turret, slide them in to the desired compartment one at a time, hit a switch to make the first two move lower in to the compartment before repeating the process all over until the compartment is full.
He then hits another switch to select a different compartment and repeats the previously mentioned steps, occasionally needing to rotate the carousel or even the turret to be able to reach more shells.
Furthermore if you fire until empty you need to screw in a hand crank that needs to be turned for like a minute in order to set a spring in the autoloader mechanism.
Gaijin nerfing vehicles for no reason... Typical. Not to mention, Gaijin keep chaging map terrains, making maps smaller and dumber :/
Dude american desert literally feels like a fishbowl now
Day 2 asking Justin to play mid tier in wt
Gaijins hate for everything not Russian is hilarious
yay
Day 3 of asking for OH-58D
Lol RU bias is alive and kicking 😂 since closed beta.
Su 25 can withstand a MANPADS and continue to fly, but here is some kind of 40mm projectile... how much fuse does it have compared to a MANPADS? oh yes, unlike the stinger, this projectile also rarely hits the plane directly, it explodes in the air. So there is cant be any "bias"
10.0 Sweden is the best one in the game.
Are there really many other 10.0 lineups anymore
@airsoftpopcorn not sure. I just end up playing Sweden at this point. Only have 4 tanks left to spade and up to br9 for aircraft.
strf9040's don't have optical tracking.
They do lol
They dont, they uses the LRF to laze target multiple times and it calculate the lead aslong as it flies straight.@@filipkatila5511
It’s more like laser tracking. The gunner measures range twice, computer does some math and the laser starts measuring a few times every second to keep updating target location.
The gun also moves on its own. The gunner only needs to do inputs if the target maneuvers or changes speed.
thirst
Hello I am early today :)
It has a good rate of fire
Nice Video!
