The American HSTV-L light tank is probably the most controversial tank in War Thunder ground forces. It's a vehicle that I'm infamous for talking about a ton, so I figured I would play it again now that it's gone up to a battle rating of 11.0 without any historical reports being actioned. I've been communicating with Gaijin about buffing XM885, but it's been sporadic.

@Martin-ot6kw Год назад

That bit about the devs going "Well we think" despite evidence to the contrary seems a theme with most people I know talking about their own experience bug reporting. Supposedly a similiar bit about MANPADs with them saying they can't be that agile because they're smaller than Sidewinders and other missiles. Per example.

@Gary_The_Metro Год назад

Gaijin: Provide documented proof of vehicle inaccuracy or we won't fix it Playerbase: *provides proof* gaijin: "I'm gonna pretend I didn't see that." Reminds me of sherman smoke launchers... It's been 7? years now? There have been tons and tons and TONS of bug reports. stating that at the very least all 76mm m4a2 and m4a3 variants should have smoke launchers. (and arguably, all except maybe the m4a1 variant? but I might be mistaken on that) Yet with the exception of a few specific cases, no shermans have smoke launchers. Despite all the documented proof that was given to gaijin. And it's not even like they're saying it's inaccurate or something. No from all the reports I've seen gaijin just intentionally ignores them. Like outright not replying to it not marking it as not a bug/looked into etc. Just literally ignoring it. Meanwhile a poorly sourced report comes in about supposedly the m4a3 76 having a significantly slower turret traverse? less than a month after it was a posted it was included in the patch that followed. And this was while they were also still ignoring all the bug reports about the m4a3 having 500 hp instead of 450. So yea. Thanks gaijin.

I'd call them insane but probably true.

OK here's what I don't get: Gaijin gaslights the playerbase into thinking it needs classified documents for bug reports, like the exact dimensions of the penetrator like you mentioned, and then acts surprised when the playerbase leaks classified documents....

I agree that this is not a bad tank. However the thing is that even when you are on the top of the skill celling - your performance would be still HEAVILY dependent on random. Current state XM885 should mean "inconsistancy" in any language around the world. You simply cannot rely on it. One time it will one-shot BVM at 1000 meters other time it won't set off the ammo that was directly hit from 50 meters. Every shot is like rolling a dice.

hstvl is much faster, better armored, better gun depression. hstvl should be 10.3. 2s38 it's ok on 9.7. And US has proxy AA on 9.0. so what?

@skyrimn00b98 Год назад

@TankistRazumist Typical vatnik apologist. Let's go point by point. The HSTVL is faster, but it's only by 10kmh. This is not a wide enough gap in performance to warrant a BR gap you are describing. The argument of armor is honesty hilarious considering just how little this matters when facing 600 mm pen kinetic rounds and HEAT warheads with pen in the 800 to 900 mm range. The HSTVL needs a buff, not a downtier. It had anti aircraft capabilites and it needs its faster reload that it does not have in the game. XM855 is also underperforming by quite a bit. Its pen is about 100 less than it should be(there's multiple documents saying it has similar penetration to M774), and its spalling is laughable, to say the least. The 2s38 with it's gen 3 thermals and IRST helicopter and jet deleting capability should be at 10.0 or 10.3. The M3A3 Bradley and Puma should also be buffed and moved up to a similar BR. As for the BMP-2M, it should 10.0, no buff needed. Lastly, you alluded to the Sargent York. This is a decent AA system, but severely lacks the flexibility of the 2S38 fucking miles. Kick Rocks

what I've noticed about apfsds and russian top tier tank breaches is that apfsds does NOT like to go through even if you are using very good apfsds but when it comes to heatfs it goes right through and takes the breach

I agree and also find one of the big ballance issues is skill ceiling and skill floor where stuff like the sherman with its stabilizer but lower pen/armor/maneuverability than other stuff at its tier such as pz 4's (pen) and t34's (hull armor and maneuverability) it has a higher skill floor cause you have to aim harder to penetrate but also a high ceiling because of the stabiliaer reaction time

I have no input since I don't actually play WT, but I gotta say. Your edits are hilarious, keep being awesome.

I think an underrated aspect of the HSTV-L is that it FEELS good to play. Even stock as mine is, I have a blast playing it because it handles nicely. Until I actually start shooting things that is. Then it becomes a chore.

I really appreciated the Surfin bird edit in and out... I had to go back and make sure that wasn't my own brain adding that in

3:42 about the drivers hatch, there's been a bug for about a month now where APFSDS just doesn't ricochet no matter the angle, which has been fixed just today. So it's probably not that feasible anymore. Noticeably affected the Abrams UFP as well.

The HSTV-L was a remarkably small and light vehicle. The hull was roughly 19.38 feet (5.91 meters) in length, 9.15 feet (2.79 meters) in width, and the vehicle was 7.91 feet (2.41 meters) tall. With applique armor installed, the HSTV-L weighed 22 US tons (19.95 tonnes). The HSTV-L’s upper front plate was angled at 80 degrees. It was believed that this extreme angle, in conjunction with the HSTV-L’s special applique armor, would protect it from 115 mm rounds used by the Soviet T-62 Needs better ammo

4:28 really nice sound effect

I know you've said you're not into academics, but your devotion to researching something as mundane as the characteristics of a dart on a prototype test bed that never got anywhere near production... and then writing multiple lengthy documents presenting compiled evidence with unique conclusions, you're basically doing the same work that a graduate student in a history program is doing at any notable graduate research university in the US. It's impressive.
