VK 30.02 (M) - What The Panther Could Have Been [War Thunder]

Ойындар

The VK 30.02 (M) is a prototype Panther tank that has reduced armor, but also much reduced weight, leading it to be a substantially quicker vehicle overall. Weighing in at around 35 tons, this proto-Panther can zip around the battlefield faster than even some light tanks. How is it, though? I go over that and more in my gameplay video.

    A main gripe I have with War Thunder is that the 1.0 tanks are so advanced already. I want more early WWII tanks, even interwar and WWI tanks. The Germans start with the Panzer III already, so many Panzer I and II variants are missing.

    After moving the Tiger H1 up to 5.7, they could add the Henschel Tiger prototype at 5.3. The VK36.01H would have 10 less mm of side armor than the Tiger, as well as a weaker turret that’s on par with the panther. Still would have that sweet 88mm, and if they wanted it to be less power still they could give it the PzGr 39 instead of the one with 250ish grams of tnt filler.

    I like tankenstein because he plays a lot German vehicles and I also play almost only Germany! I want to ask if it’s possible to have a video about the nerfed 15 mm, 20 mm, 30 mm and 37 mm aa guns, why this happened and why there’s no explanation about it, by gaijin?! Their pen values were accurate, accept for the 37 mm that was nerfed a long time ago and to think that was only 64 mm of pen in 100 m, not much compared to the allies 37 mm gun..

Just about and tank or airplane can take it out. Worth nothing in assualt. Hell if they piss on you your dead. Only thing it has is good is the gun.

    As a Germany main, the panther is Really good, if you know what you're doing is really devastating, same goes for the Tiger 1. You just need to understand how to play the tanks. These tanks are amazing most Germany players just don't know how to play them. Plus their guns have a great one shot power, you usually only need to shoot once. Also the Panther and Tiger from the front have very precise weak spots that are most of the time volumetric+Angle screwed. On the other hand, the Jumbo is one of the hardest things to pen. All the other tanks, I, in my experience are basically paper.
