@@wfb.subtraktor311 It will be even better at that br as it will face more vehicles with less armor, instead of heavy tanks, panthers etc which it faces now
@@heqagon no, it won't, because it will face vehicles with better reaction times. A Panther or Tiger II isn't safe from a PT. The PT will just shoot the other tank's gun because they don't have a stabiliser and at that point the fight is already over. The PT needs to face other stabilised tanks, that is the only counter to it.
the only thing setting this apart from the 9040C is the lack of armor (it can be destroyed by .50 cal unfortunatly) and the lack of higher pen sabots and because of that I run it in my 10.0 lineup with no problem. I don't use the higher pen sabot on the 9040C since I don't wanna go broke (110SL per shot) and since the best strategy is not to get shot in the firstplace I don't mind it at all using it at 10.0. Sweden has a pretty solid and surprisingly fun lineup at 10.0 coupled with all the other CV9040's, the Strv 121, the awkward, but suprinsingly effective missile SPAA. Whenever I have a streak of bad luck, I'll take this lineup to have fun again. Love these anti-everything machines
Love the intros, all of them and once you get some momentum or love from the algorithm, 100k comes at you fast and you def deserve it because your content is great.
9.0 is good. I don't want to be 7.7 getting uptiered to 8.0+ and getting stomped by this thing. I mean, sure, it's easy to kill it since it has very thin armor at 8.3 but this thing has much better utility and can spot you before you even can (thermals), than a 7.7 tank which what? mostly have heat-fs, aphe, apds and maybe night vision which it doesn't even need because night games are non-existent at that BR..
Most ifv at that br have thermals with atgms that can kill from 2km from the front. Strf cant. Plus there is no point to play it since its the only vehicle around 8.7-9.3 for swedes
Yo! i use Vegas Pro 15, and it crashed a lot when i was using gameplay files recorded via streamlabs/OBS, when i started recording with nvidia shadowplay and using those files, the problem dissapered to the point, that i dont even remember to save the project every 3 minutes hahah! great vid, keep up the good work!
It's meant to be better. These 40mm darts were nerfed in post-pen effect like they were the reserve APDS that just make holes, the reload times to at all begin reloading is completely wrong, the per-round reloadtime is completely wrong, should be two separate channels to feed from, it's meant to have a five round burst-fire mode, mobility suffers greatly because Gaijin cannot even begin to figure out how to model transmissions, but at least they finally added the composite panels to the C model. Also this one has the repair cost of two Russian top tier tank spawns while the PT-76-57 gets to sit down there with far better pen and post-pen effect.. but at least we've finally got HE-VT!
I wonder when that BMP shot that ATGM at you on the first round you showed if you could have quickly switched to the proxy shell and taken it out mid-flight?
You're getting annoyed playing *THE LEOPARD FREAKING 2A5?!* Are you irritated by how braindead easy that tank is to play? I aced its crew without premium or talisman, it was pure bliss. I just don't get what you mean.
This vehicle need an overhaul, the armor is all wrong, NO you dont penetrate front armor with 50. Cal or russian 14.5, which is super frustrating, if they dont fix the armor it should absolutely not be bumped up any more than 9.0, if at all lowered.
told you davinci was the way to go, glad you are trying it, glad you agree even if it was all on your own that you decided. i took photoshop in college and this was an easy transition to it. love da vinci
in your opinion, is the Strf.9040C at 10.0 for a good reason? IMO, the basic version is the 9040B at 9.0, and each other version has an upgrade from it, like top-down missiles for BILL, better armor and radar for SPAA or better armor and better shell in case of 9040C. But they all should be 9.7, I dont see later one being anywhere better then the SPAA one. Same armor, only 3 crew instead of 5, and no radar vs a slight upgrade shell that I feel like isnt to noticable. Or am I completely wrong here, since i just got it few days ago and still grind the HE-VT and other upgrades vs my spaded 9.7 deck
@@SergeiSugaroverdoseShuykov I disagree, i wouldnt want to fight then in my T72A, XM-1 or MBT-70, at least not the BILL, and the SPAA one is also very good so not fair being vs 8.3 planes in the worst case. 9.7 would be perfect for all 3 later ones, but 10.0 is just rough
Maps meant for mbt's? sorry to inform you, 9.0, and even earlier is MBT territory. Centurion(the original onwards), T54's, M47, M48, T55, and Type 61 and Type59 are *all* 1st generation MBT's. And these tanks sit 6.0 and up. Vickers, AMX30, Leo1, T62, M60, Chieftain are examples of 2nd generation MBT's-even the original T-72(the one we don't have in game) is a 2nd generation MBT. 3rd Generation MBT's are 99% of the later tier tanks in the game. The only 4th gen MBT's in game are: Leo2PL(modernised to be 4th gen), Type10.
TL;DR. Just to put it more simple: -tanks built after the WW2 to the '60s are 1st Generation MBTs. -from the '60s to the late '70s are 2nd Gen. MBTs. -from the '80s to the early 2000 are 3rd Gen. MBTs. -from 2010 to now are 4th Gen. MBTs.
the only dislike about any 9040 variant is the 24 round first ammo, you run through that way too quickly, and it seems to always run out when you need it the most, I'd rather have the Bradley with worst performing APFSDS but more consistent fire power out put, and not needing to worry about the first stage ammo.
I love getting long range maps in my WW2 vehicles. You drive for five minutes and die from a one shot from across the map smh. But when I play 7.0 and above I get all the short range maps like wtf gaijin.
It is overtiered, just because one can do well in it, does not imply it is balanced. it's already so incredibly nerfed from what it is in the real world.
Gj has a perfect opportunity to get more money out of this by introducing a finnish variant with the 30mm or any of the 35mm variants. Personally i want the finnish CV9030 to be in the game
Question to the people, I'm not sure if this is the case for the 40mm Versions of the CV90 but at least the 30mm version in the Finnish service reloads it's magazine in clips not one shell at a time. So does anyone know if the 40mm is actually reloaded one at a time
@@adrfarling5503 It's actually got two magazines...sort of. There's one under the gun, divided into three compartments that are meant to hold 8 rounds each (24 in total) of the three different types of ammunition ( so 8 HE, 8 Sabot, 8 Proximity fuse). Then there's the "carousel magazine" (not sure if this is the English word for it because I'm translating from Swedish) holding 48 rounds that are easily accessible for the crew (unless the gun is too elevated or depressed) and used to reload the magazine under the gun. And the rest are spread around the compartment. So, from what I can understand; Yes. Once the magazine under the gun is empty, it will have to be reloaded one round at a time. I'm guessing the thinking is that if you fire off all 24 rounds, you should probably get the hell outta Dodge anyway. But that's just me speculating. EDIT: To clarify the "two magazines" part; The one holding 48 rounds would technically be classified as a ready rack, but it is in the form of a "carousel magazine".
@@adrfarling5503 Sadly, I'm a bit too old (pushing 40) so everyone I know that did their military service were stationed on older equipment. I know 3 guys who served on IFV's (one during the war in the Balkans) but they all served on the PBV 302, so I don't know anyone with first hand experience of the Strf 90 series.
it does not reload with magazines, it has 2x 80 round belts(or mags not sure) that it can choose between, after the belts are empty you have 240 rounds to reload with(not sure if in belts or mags)
Davinci really is an amazing software, unfortunately it tends to crash for me a lot but thats the fault of my budget pc. Other than that i highly recommend especially since its free (or so i think lol)
The 1x is really just for observation as it has no real crosshairs. There is an x in the middle but that is mainly to give a general idea where to spray the MG with the aid of tracers. It isn't suitable to aim the 40mm as it doesn't adjust to the rangefinder.
@@GetBreaded I've grinded until the lago 1 with tier 1 mods and so far the best tank is still the spj fm/43-44. i agree that the shortcomings will teach me about being a better player tho

I love the sound of the 40mm .. when you hear it starting firing you know you’re f… 😄
If you hear the shot it wasn’t for you - darius kincade ( the hitman’s bodyguard )
No, when you’re f… you won’t have chance to hear it’s sound.
Belt fed 35mm would be better In my opinion if it had more than 40 rounds of apfsds since it has a higher rpm
fighting this while at 7.7 was just nuts
When your autoloader is empty, the first round takes the longest to load. So let it load a few rounds before firing again, it'll be faster.
Good idea Aussieghost. I think we could be friends.
Loving the intros! Keep it up man!
One of the best IFVs out there and the proximity fused shell makes it an amazing AA too!
There are better ifv's at a lower br and with atgms
id say the pt-76 57 is better simply because of the way better spalling even though the 9040b has thermals and apfsds
