What I really like about both of the Spruts is that you can upper or lower your suspension, which can be super useful on maps like Aral Sea when you´re hulldown capping B and just need that tiny bit of extra elevation to shoot from your position. Or on city maps you lower the suspension all the way down and go a tiny bit back up for better driving comfort. It´s not as versatile as the BMP-3 suspension unfortunately so no extra gun depression, but then it probably wouldn´t sit at 10.0 anyways. Edit*: In my opinion this tank was already stronk af with 3BM46 and those super tasty thermals, but now it´s an absolute unit.

[@EPE77U]

I heard sprut should be able to lean towards with suspension like bmp-3 giving it more depression. If that's true, I wish they fixed it

3BM60 have worst post pen damage compared to 3BM46?

[@Iden_in_the_Rain]

@@AZ-dj1nino, it’s just more balanced than 3BM60. The only thing any country has comparable to the 2S25M was the M1128, which has M900. Comparing to the 2S25M (with only 3BM46), the M1128 has a 0.4 sec worse reload, 10mm less pen, no ATGM’s, and a mm of pen/second ratio of 69.6. The 2S25M (with only 3BM46) has a mm of pen/second of 74.9 while also having a larger diameter gun with more post pen damage (and it can store over twice as much ammo as the M1128). The 2S25M with 3BM60 now gets a mm of pen per second ratio of 81.7.

wassup Justin, glad to see the content bustling as always. Carry on and tank on!

[@raizencore]

I love this thing and I'd go as far to put in my top 5 of some of the best light tanks in the game, for 10,0 the best thing they could have done is not give it 3BM60 but buff its vertical targeting speed which if you ask me is the one thing that slightly holds it down. This is a classic example of Gaijin being extremely sort sighted. Now this tank should go up in br at 10.7 but I think they should still buff its vertial targeting speed, this has potential to be so much better and it takes only thing.

[@alientitimilk9073]

AGS should get M900 at 11.0. Though if the XM8/CCVL have M900 they'd be miles better than the 2S25M. I played all 3 extensively and the downsides of the 2S25M are bad and is mainly good at sniping. CQC XM8/CCVL are so much better.

[@TomPrickVixen]

It might not have the best gun depression but (i think) it has adjustable suspension to counter it!

[@zaidanmujahid6567]

with the lack of spotters in high tiers, it is a great buff tbh. Having spot ability in high tiers is very crucial especially in early game, prevents you and your team from getting mopped out the floor in the first minute. And to be more aware of flankers in mid and late match

[@somaticapollo6025]

dont forget it has hydropneumatic suspention, but you can only go up and down.

[@Kwisss]

People barely played this vehicle to begin with which is odd to why they even gave it 3BM60. Having played it extensively - 3BM46 is all it needed at 10.0. 3BM60 changes nothing except when you fight 11.0 or bring it to 11.7. It was an overall unnecessary change and would rather them buff the vertical traverse of it (was bug reported).

[@ii_dynasty]

So basically, it isn't unnecessary, and there's now a reason to keep it in your lineup as you progress.

[@bradleymckinney6825]

Therefore the CV90105 and 90120 deserve all of the compatible subsequent NATO rounds for each gun. Because they ARE compatible with them. Great video. I would imagine this is going to get constant uptier games though. Like I do at 10.0 for sweden.
