Yeah they need to put the Desert Warrior and Stormer AD to 9.7, the DW is worse then all the other 10.0 Two-2B carriers (which are not that great themslves since Tow2Bs are so inconsitent), and Stormer AD is worse then the Gepard 1A2 which is 9.7
The biggest issue is that this is the ONLY 9.7 British tank. Basically means that you can either bring 9.3 vehicles and hope they perform well, or bring this thing up to 10.0 and get absolutely demolished by more 10.7 vehicles. This thing should really be at 9.3, other than looks it isn’t much different then the Khalid.
This thing basically looks like a challenger at a BR where it’s mountains of chemical protection would be useful and I’m very excited for it! I’m gonna be a demon rat eating up 8.7s in this thing
Given that all the top tier premiums are 10.7, the likelihood that you see 8.7 or even 9.7 consistently isn't very high, it's likely going to be full uptier hell
The biggest problem in war thunder for all players is the up-down tier. When will this be fixed? When I play 9.3 I only want to see 9.3 and someone who likes a lower tier vehicle.
Don't think of BR that hard, having a lineup with varyinf BR allow you to spawn at a varyikg cost of SP, just make sure to get to know your vehicles to know how and when to use them correctly. It's not rock-paper-scissor where a 9.7 beats a 9.3, and a 9.3 can only beat 9.0 etc. Besides, only 4 players each team can have the top BR lineup in any match. Don't be too fixated on it, and enjoy the game ;)
@@A_Larsen this becomes truer the higher you go in battle rating. Starting at 8.7, you get fully stabilized, laser-rangefinded APFSDS. It can kill a lot of stuff in an uptier since weakspots stay relatively similar when going higher and higher in BR. However, at lower tiers, you do encounter moments where there is nothing you can do against an enemy vehicle, besides chew on its tracks or gnaw at the barrel. Nevertheless, your point is and will always be valid: play for fun.
soooo its slower than most mbts....but also has maybe the same firepower AND it gets penetrated mostly everywhere on the front except the cheeks?!....oppph that doesnt sound like so much fun.
Ikr lol this is what ive been saying forever Doesnt help that being penned anywhere just results in your immediate explosion because theres ammo fucking everywhere.
Too bad I'm a person with a job and responsibilities that prevent me from playing everyday as well as living in a third world country so I'll never be able to grind this out or buy it. Thanks Gaijin
Such a useless event vehicle. If it's going to be 9.7, it should just be a tech tree vehicle. How many people are grinding a mediocre tank with no lineup?
Nah, it doesn't look that great. It has no line up and it costs 45k points per stage, I don't think so. They'll probably add some variant as a premium later down the line as they always do, and render it worthless.
TEC calls it a great promising tank but spends the whole video talking about how this thing is a slow, large, lumbering piece of crap with middling firepower
The Challenger 1's are already fairly solid tanks at 10.3/10.7, and now you're getting what's basically a Mk. 2 at 9.7. I'm not afraid to say it'll be pretty solid by itself.
@@ReapersKid07yeah I could see it going to 10.0. Less hull armor and no thermals for .7 lower br from the first chally. The round will be perfectly usable in uptiers too.
The vehicle is looking great. Hopefully it can get a line up around it
Hey man can you pls send war thunder wiki link for test drive
@@Xsveq I used a custom hangar
@@TheEuropeanCanadian hey, can we test drive this tank like the f-14 iriaf? edit: nvm got it

Keep In Mind that the L15A3 and L15A5 Are the Heaviest APDS rounds in the Game so the Post Pen damage can be very good AT least sometimes

agree its event tank so putting it on 9.3 would not be game breaking
i mean you can just bring the tank and nothing else, that's what i do
there's not a penalty to it
The Rooikat 105 is 9.7
Welcome to the same problem Israel has. They’ve gotta stop doing it.
Bringing something else is probably better though. More chances to ... Do something I guess@@Ricardo-ck7zd

We just need the Warrior VERDI-2 now for a good lineup or WCSP.
Supposed to have chobham
perfect for hull down position

The only place where you can guarantee a lineup is simulator, and it's a bunch of fun!
Sadly, no one plays sim :(
@@BambeHi play sim 🎉🎉
They need to cap tiers at +-.5 not 1.0. There is no reason a 9.7 should see 10.7 or even more egregious 10.7s going all the way to 11.7

How do you test drive event vehicles after wiki update?
Shame the required points is 40000 instead of 35000. That grind is going to be long
45000 actually.
i had a feeling this thing will be at 10.0/10.3
I thought this vehicle was a chieftain but modernized to be more like a chally 1 for export?

thats challies for you in this game all abysmal dogshit not worth a grind
This is actually kinda strong for a 9.7
It'll likely see 10.7 most often given all the premiums are up there
Move it to 9.3 or let it stay on 9.7 but give it better round as an tradeoff.
A good british tank? In this economy?
Ahh i see...no thermal
I am gonna try to get this one.
Thanks for reminding me the M1 abrams is still at 10.7 😭 gaijin balancing is a joke
I'm just gonna sell this in the market. If it is a Zulfiqar MBT, it would be a different story.
Im very excited about this one. I love British tanks.
is it gonna be a premium ?
No
Ok but why the hell is 9.7??? In 9.7 this thing is dead on arival....It should be 9.3 max.
Stock apds SUVs Abrams lol also no thermals at 9.7- also Briton/ main selling British vehicles is hilarious

A challenger mk2 at 9.7 is insanely strong
Insanely strong how? You shoot the breach like every tank. Turret armour is meaningless when 90% of maps are point blank knife fights.
@jbeverley67 If it were at 9.7 consistently then maybe, but it's likely gonna be uptiered to 10.7 most of the time courtesy of all the 10.7 premiums

@ReapersKid07 Fairly solid is a funny way of saying worse than basically all it's competition at the same br.
@@ZBEASTG It's a better Khalid at .3 higher my guy
@@ReapersKid07 It will constantly get uptiered to 10.3 where it will get outclassed pretty much by everything.
@@ReapersKid07yeah I could see it going to 10.0. Less hull armor and no thermals for .7 lower br from the first chally. The round will be perfectly usable in uptiers too.
It’s a crap as all British so called tanks…
should be 10.3, the TTD at that BR is insane for a 105mm MBT. also the TTD has no line up to speak of aside from the Chally Mk.2
Would make zero sense. This thing is just a worse Chally 1, putting it at the same br would make this thing useless.
the gun isnt the greatest + lack of therms. more of a sidekick to your top tier lineup if anything.
The TTD gets DM63, thermals, and is more mobile. This is a downgraded Challenger in every aspect, why should it be the same br?
What are you talking about, that thing is nothing compared to TTD
