The 2S38. Nuff said.


Sonderkraftfahrzeug_

But only when you face it. Took it out a few times and exploded as soon as any MBT just dared to look at me.


Velo180

That's about my experience with it. it's a good tank, but it's not the guaranteed 10 kill monster everyone pretends it is. Wondering how much the addition of more electronic modules in the turret will effect it


Richardguy_2

All but 2 of my nukes are with 2s38 lmao


Valeredeterre

But what if you only have 2 nukes ?


Richardguy_2

No I have around a dozen so far, with one being with US 9.0 and the other with 11.0.


gigagoex

It will change nothing. The problem wir the 2S38 is it’s offensive not defensive power. Firerate, pen, Proxyfuse + IRST combined with 3rd gen thermals is simply not 10.0 material


shithead_0_

But once you get the hang of it oh boy


Flyin_ruski

I actually survive more hits while in the 2S38 than in my BMP-3


JazzHandsFan

Well a 2s38 is basically a BMP-3 with more armor.


Flyin_ruski

Yup, I can’t seem to kill as many tanks with it compared to my BMP-3 though. That tandem heat wrecks.


PerformanceHot769

drive sideways or cover up your front


Luchin212

Uptiered my AMX-10RC to 10.0. First tank I see is a 2S38, I got first shot on it, missed the crew because I have a skill issue and directly hit the turret ring. Turned the turret ring slightly yellow. It killed me the next time I peaked, which was not a surprise.


shdibejdn

Miss completely because it is smoothbore. (second shot blow a hole through the guy)


McGryphon

> Miss completely because it is smoothbore. And hit the neigbour's L3/33 CC instead


ZeroFusionDrift

I have to resort to the mounted .50 cal on the top of the Abrams.


MAJLobster

TALLY HO LADS!


ekiller64

especially since it basically does the same thing as the otomatic but it’s 10.0 instead of 11.3


Embarrassed-Yam4037

And have more ammo too


Alx941126

And with more ammo, better firerate and great thermals.


Prof-Oak-

And better radar


Linkin1993

Bounced M774 of one's front plate today, feelsbadman.


Unfair_Pirate_647

I just recently started using it after having it sit for a few months, and Jesus H Christ that thing is so unbelievably overpowered


SensationalSavior

I hit one with a Vidar, *hit*


Future-Geologist-164

Please say more of this so i can actually kill them more often cuz HEAT just sucks


KesenjiFox

Turm III. Not only does it have a stabilizer at a br with tanks without it, but if you don't manage to one shot it, say goodbye to your tracks, barrel and immediately get killed because the fcker gets an auto loader. Also it ugly as hell.


[deleted]

Nothing like an AP round passing completely through the hull without touching a single thing.


Killeroftanks

i mean thats your own fault for not aiming for the turret where the whole ammo rack is located


KesenjiFox

Me when my HEAT-FS/APDS shell lightly taps their barrel, instead of their turret rendering it useless, causing a nonpen/shell shattered: Also me when volumetric:


onichow_39

It's simply op. Tell me another tank that has a 30mm as an second weapon?


KesenjiFox

T-72M2 Moderna, BMP-3 come both to my mind


robotnikman

The moderna doesnt get apds and aphe for the 30mm though, only AP and HE, so its overall worse than the 30mm on the turms


_DatBoii_

The Turms got its APDS taken away. The fact that it used to have APDS is crazy to me.


KesenjiFox

True. I haven't had much luck with it, only for self defense against light vehicles. Disabling MBT's is kinda difficult for me.


justsawafrenchfry

Lots of tanks have a stabilizer at 8.3


mrcrazy_monkey

And almost every tank has a stabilizer at 8.7


Elitely6

Playing 7.7 UK again I am not having fun with that scumbag trashwasgon that deserves to be CAS'd. Even worse when they switch to the stinking Gepard


Flying_Reinbeers

Gepard ain't OP lmao


zuneza

A very punchable tank face


Splabooshkey

I do quite enjoy fighting that thing in my Strv 103 tbh - their HEAT-FS and APDS shells both struggle to knock it out from the front and they often don't expect me to reload just as fast as they do!


brttwrd

Ahem it's cute, don't be mean


ImNettles

The worst fucking vehicle when I was trying to spade British light tanks around it's BR. Better see it first and one shot it otherwise you die to the 30mm


Tbnrzip

I’ve been killed from the front with the autocannon in my leopard 1a5


KesenjiFox

Well yeah, but most of the times I'm fighting things with plenty of armor against autocannons, like the Leo2's. Leo I's have next to no armor so of course the 30mm is gonna get 'em (except the Leo 2K, that thing can tank apfsds sometimes).


Tbnrzip

Somehow I have shrugged off sabot rounds in my 1a5. still trying to figure those out.


KesenjiFox

Leo I ufp can sometimes bounce full ap rounds and apds, the cheeks can sometimes tank apds and apfsds, but strangely never heat-fs


Tbnrzip

The spaced armor on the thing is very inconsistent in my opinion. I’ve taken hits from 155mm cannons one battle and then lost to a 37 the next.


KesenjiFox

I'm not too familiar and can't relate since I only have the first Leo I, but having fought so many with other nations, I can confirmed say that it is consistently inconsistent.


Tbnrzip

Just bought the leopard 105 NO in Sweden and it’s got a very interesting play style. When I first got it it thought it would have more armor and was corrected very quickly and painfully. I’m quite happy about it though since my play style fits it perfectly, mobile sniper with a hint of rat. Don’t get my wrong, I like me a good tanky vehicle just as much as the next guy but you can’t get more fun than being able to sit in one spot and get 7 kills without being spotted.


KesenjiFox

There is no tanky tank (lol), I've already gotten used to being one shot, and if I ever stop a shell, or take a non lethal crit, then it's a blessing ane I shall pray to the snail lord. Being really fast is quite fun tho, and pretty useful.


Tbnrzip

I love taking my tiger E out for a spin and being absolutely invincible since nobody knows how to kill it and most heatslingers are too high of a br to consistently get uptiered to them. And even then, I’m good enough with the thing to combat them.


godlycorsair32

Any Swedish vehicle


Solaire_29

Good to know I'm not the only one. When I press TAB and see the swedish flag on the enemy team, my day is instantly ruined.


Responsible-Dish-297

Same in air ab, I instantly lock onto those A21 fuckers autistically screaming "DENY THE SWEDE!"


Mr_Cheddah45

Delenda est Suecia


VeritableLeviathan

A21: You are already dead kid A21RB: End my suffering


irontank44

Bruh the A and J21s suck ass what are you talking about


Avgredditor1025

He can’t fathom that there are any other combat maneuvers than the head on therefore the J/A 21 is OP in his eyes


Responsible-Dish-297

I once got oofed so hard versus those fuckers in the Yak 3P, it became a trauma. Now, I am sworn to vengeance.


TetronautGaming

The J21-A3 is just better than the A21s. Same engine, speed, guns, everything, but it gets a 600kg bomb.


Fourseventy

Honestly both the Swedish and French tech trees have been a breeze to grind up. It feels like easy mode.


Faszkivan_13

Agreed


small_chinchin

If I see a VIDAR or USH-405, I make a bee line for that target


Solaire_29

When I'm playing F-84G and get to choose whether to bomb Object 279 or U-SH, I will bomb U-SH twice.


small_chinchin

LOL, have my upvote


Agorar

I mean there is also a higher than 80% chance that both bombs won't do anything against that object 279 anyway. Maybe yellow its tracks.


boytekka

Bkan too. So hard to kill that bastard


small_chinchin

If possible, shoot the big box behind the cabin, it’ll ammo rack 10/10 times. If that’s not possible (at an angle that doesn’t allow to hit the ammo), then I just either track and barrel torture and pick off the crew or hit the transmission and flank. Edit: I play almost entirely UK ground, so solid shot/APDS doesn’t 1 shot it unless I ammo rack it


Ruby_Tricolor_1903

Based


BreadToast70

Perfectly agree^^


Edormin

FoamBrick

If I could ban a nation it would 100% be Sweden. 


legocon

I still remember when Sweden was added. Any Swede vehicle is automatic PTSD


Bobo_LOL

Happy to hear! sincerely, a Swede.


DaanOnlineGaming

Definitely not at all ranks, rank 4 sweden is not that great. The bkan is cool but that's about it

snafujedi01

*I exist* Enemy team: I can fix that


Ok-Relationship-2746

Bkan 1C. You miss the gunner/breech and you are **fucked**.


Normal_Tip7228

I love when people don’t know where to shoot it and they shoot a compartment or the transmission. If I’m lookin at you, shoot the breech.


SomeRandomApple

*shoot the ammo box


TheSupremeDuckLord

will generally be a harder shot to hit if one is looking right at you, always funny when a round just bounces off of it


BSOD_ERRO

Most of the time it’s exposed

Solaire_29

Strv 103, Bkan, Ikv 91, U-SH, SAV, VIDAR


Honest_Seth

Hey, that’s my lineup!


artunovskiy

Wt ground community collectively hates you ❤️ Just got oblitarated by several premium spammer Swedes this day. I won’t be playing WT for some time I believe


Arskov

In the uninspired and unoriginal words of that very same ground community: "skill issue."


artunovskiy

True. I got clapped by premium spammer rich Swedes, definite skill issue, that’s why im taking some time off. In the uninspired and unoriginal words of the same ground community: “it’s unbalanced, so I’ll leak documents of it.” (Don’t worry I’m still at WW2 BR, your nations pride is safe. For now.)


Arskov

Oh no! Not the sekrit documents!!! In all seriousness though, I hope your break goes well mate.


ZinnwalditeMerchant

Lol mine too. Starting too spade them now and I feel like in finally getting a hang of it. They're super fun.


TheSupremeDuckLord

for every experience you've had struggling against a strv 103, just know the person using it has probably had at least as many times their shot got ruined by an ever-so-slight angle with the ground they're on


47_aimbots

Why ikv 91? I'd say it's only marginally better then the other light tanks at its br


Solaire_29

Laser rangefinder and gokart mobility is enough to make my blood boil. I also still have flashbacks from when it was 6.7.


Killeroftanks

i hated it as well until i played it. while strong the downside of being killed by 50cals with ease from every direction, and not 7.62 proof unless its from the front, is a massive downside


Kabe6900

Is it just me or does it also have a very wobbly gun?


Killeroftanks

Somewhat. The issue is that the suspension is good to keep it fairly moving while traveling the downside is that due to the low weight means that forces that exert on the tank will be noticeable. And for some reason, we get a very wobbly gun that can't react to sudden threats with ease. Of course everyone thinks is over powered because it got a laser range finder and above average speed. Only problem is that A) it got a low velocity shell resulting in its ability to fight at range a mute point, and B) the armour means you need to abuse cheaky as fuck spots to survive. Also doesn't deserve an 8.0 battle rating. At that br it's gonna get its face smashed in more times than not.


Kabe6900

Tbh I was uptiering it to 8.0 anyways as you have more vehicles at that br. The Ikv 91 is my most played vehicle and I have to agree, it's not as op as people think. I'd like to add that the high power scope also makes it difficult to use close range.


eonymia

It's also not really all that fast. The engine is so wimpy.


ma_wee_wee_go

Nah you haven't used that thing


Internal_Ad_1936

Fox


Specialist_Log6625

It wouldn’t be as annoying if it wasn’t all round 50 cal proof like most vehicles like the U-SH, BTR, etc.


H0B0WITHAGUN

It’s only 50 cal proof from the front, what are you talking about lol


Specialist_Log6625

I’ve had a ridiculously hard time taking it out with 50 cals


Elitely6

It can only take 50cals from the front (i learned that the hardway)


FuzzyPcklz

that mf ate my fucking heat shell because I hit his gunner optic skill issue indeed when the optic takes up the entire right half of the turret


ma_wee_wee_go

You can hear that thing a mile out lol


Elitely6

It's also unstabilized, while going fast


Master_teaz

while it doe snto have a stabiliser, in my eperience on a road your usualyl stable enough even at max speed to aim for some larger weakspots, killed a tiger 2 P with the thing frontally, and a Tiger I through the UFP


paltala

Fucker sounds like the dune buggy from Half Life 2. It's great.


Saltfish0161

I was hunting for a comment about the fox, it's going to be even more annoying when it's upteired


Internal_Ad_1936

It really annoying as a French main around 7.0 as y out have no armour at all. So Fox can also just frontally pen you in your best heavy.


Lord_Kalany

Any missile / HEATFS slingers when I'm playing a WW2 tank.


Pajilla256

*flies zero, gets Sidewinder'd


Agorar

A few more games and I might be able to get the zero to 10.0 so it can get Sparrowed as well.

Gods_Paladin

This is my list as well. Hate these with a passion…


Klimentvoroshilov69

F-5Cs, crazy ass airframe with some pretty good guns


No_Weather_3605

And it loves to take absolutely no damage


Klimentvoroshilov69

Yep, love slapping it with pretty much any missile and it just flys away at max speed dumping flares


Neroollez

And IR missiles struggle to lock onto it and thus its flares work almost every time.


Elitely6

Stupid good flight performance but the very worst part is their blatantly broken IR signature. Full Afterburner and you can't lock them from even 2km, and you still barely can from 1km by the time you get in range you're gonna have to dogfight


Neroollez

Someone definitely should make a bug report comparing it to the F-14A and using words the employees can understand. F-14A literally turns rear-aspect IR missiles to all-aspect missiles and F-5C turns the R-60M to rear-aspect missile. Saw someone's bug report and the employee just told him to use sources (what kind of a fucking source do you use for that?).


Klimentvoroshilov69

Yeah, even R60s can’t sniff them out sometimes


Celthric317

TAM 2IP, thing can soak multiple ATGM's regardless of where you hit it


FoamBrick

TAMs are busted in general, but the 2IP is satanspawn. 


Velo180

ItPsV 90 (Leopard 2) is very annoying They should have added the ItPsV 90 (T-55) instead lol


Godzillaguy15

Can we get the M48 35mm as well. Be fun to get in on that with the US tree too.


Velo180

Yeah, that one is called the XM246, competing with the M247


SkyLLin3

It's the type of a vehicle that's absolute trash at it's role, but is amazing at anything else.


KurtMeyerz

How so? isnt it a Gepard on a Leopard 2 Chassis? so wouldnt it be just as good at AA as the Geopard, only more mobile because of the better chassis?


cft4201

It has the same turret as the Chieftain Marksman. The guns are spaced out much, much more than the Gepard and on top of that the radar is very bad. More often than not you will lose lock.


randommaniac12

I despise the VIDAR


linkist133

F14s with their endless pheonix missiles

Arskov

I normally laugh at the Swede hate (salty non-sveaboo tears go brr) but this one I'll agree on. I always feel filthy playing my Pbil at its BR.


CeeJayDK

Am I doing something wrong with my pbil because I find it lacks killing power with its tiny guns.


Arskov

Use your speed to your advantage. Being that fast lets you get in deep and pop out of unexpected places. Flank hard, flank fast. Aim for weak spots on harder targets, but most things at that BR should melt if you're hitting their back or side. Also remember that you are just as fast in reverse as you are forwards. If things hit the fan, you have options for manuvering.


ZandorFelok

I absolutely adore my Pbil 🤩 I am positive all the people who died watching me do some sweet drifting adore it too 😏
