3:21 TNT Equivalent isn't accurate to the real effects that the shell has in a real game. Some shells that have more than 200g of TNT equivalent do less damage than other shells with a smaller amount of TNT. A clear example is the unlockable Pzgr. Shell for the Tiger 1, this shell has a TNT equivalent of 285.6g... That's more than the IS-2 122mm Nuke Shell. But in reality the Pzgr. Shell does less post penetration damage than the stock shell, the Pzgr. 39.

It might be an interesting idea to have a crew "bail out" rather than the current "jump out" where there was a random chance of crew injury/death while escaping. If the vehicle was abandoned and not destroyed within a time frame you could 'Reoccupy' during the match, or 'Recover' at the end of the match and then a significantly lower repair cost for that vehicle if your side then wins the match. If the enemy team wins then they get a bounty for all the "capture" vehicles still intact or recoverable, but you have the full 'repair' cost of a total replacement vehicle so really a replacement cost rather than repair

Could you do a 'review' of all the "Hurricanes" but especially the IIB/Trop with 12 mgs and rockets, kinda cool with the "black night camo" too. They suffer from the weird WT instructor thing that can catch you out forcing your plane into side slipping and other such nonsense despite their claim "It's forgiving and retains good turning characteristics at low speeds" but otherwise its a much under rated plane along with my favorite the 'Sea Hurricane Mk IC' with 20mm's. RANT: War Thunder claim "the disadvantages of the Hurricane design are also present in the Mark IC: the biggest concern being its rather fragile engine and air-frame. Its soft skin and little protection means the Mark IIB can't take too much damage before it takes on critical damage. Once the aircraft is damaged, the plane often loses controlability, making survival far harder, as maneuverability is key for the British aircraft." Every book and Hurricane pilot I have heard describe it as able to soak a lot of hits with low effect because of its design, another reason it was chosen as a carrier and CAS frame, but I find WT are quite erm "economic" with a great deal of the British Tech tree pre-modern at least. " But Germany Suffers! " We Brits are way too polite, at least to suffer aloud, we grumble quietly to ourselves over the morning Beans on Toast.
