The AMX 13 SS11 is way better imo. The positioning of the missiles aimed upwards allows you to easily shoot over walls and hill tops and kill enemies on the other side using the WASD guidance. They can't even see you. On maps like abandoned factory you're nearly unstoppable, you can camp the A point and shoot infinite missiles over the walls. There are so many map locations where that position of the missiles is a huge advantage. The HOT missiles on the higher br version however are positioned on the sides, which plays into the AMX 13 worst weakness. It is very difficult to use cover/corners because the gun positioned at the back of the tank means your front is sticking way out unless u back in to position always. This is made worse by the HOT missiles being on the sides. So many times the missile got blocked by a corner of building or shrubbery and blew up in my face, then enemy knows my location and kills me. HOT is not a bad tank, but I no longer have it on my active bar for any BR.

Yea, they COMPLETELY ruined this tank with the recent update. The missiles come out super high when launched now, making them useless against anyone closer than 600 meters; at the same time, the missile fidgets a lot at longer ranges and isn't entirely accurate, which means the missiles are barely usable. In the end, you are left with a 6.7 tank (that's already overtiered), but at 8.0 which constantly gets uptiered to 9.0. This tank is a 3.7 chassis with a 5.0 gun, as much as I love the AMX-13s, this thing is basically useless.

As a new player to warthunder, the whole up tier thing is so brutal and unfair I feel. Then the one time I get down tiered it feels unfair to the other guys because I'm just pumbling them

Always come back for the command and conquer zero hour music!

This thing is honestly not terrible, doesn't really deserve to be 8.0 but the missiles can kinda make up for what it lacks in firepower. Best thing about this tank is the fact that you can 3rd person fire the ATGMs from behind certain pieces of cover and ridgelines because the guidance system is on the top of the turret.

Speaking of share cancer, France also got the same tank at the SAME br this update (ffs gaijin). 71K where the difference for intents and purposes is the 6046 engine instead of GAA, and now you've got a muzzlebrake to get cheesed. They give us Skink at 4.7 but Rank *4* so you can't use it until you've ground past the Rank 3 4.7's into 6.0 territory. Meanwhile, Panther prototype VK30.02M sitting smug at Rank 3, 5.0 (soon to be 4.7) with 24% less research cost on the vehicle boosting 5.3 Germany. Russia got more top tier, as in another T-80, lmao.
