Yeah, in my experience T-80BVM is miles ahead of T-90M. That additional Armour saves you sometimes but in most cases additional mobility, reverse speed and faster reload is much better.
BVM is clearly the more comfortable machine to me as well. Yes the T-90M may make you play more careful and with the extra protection it may survive longer and more often leading to a better K/D ratio... But the game carry potential is higher in the BVM IMHO. K/D ratio isn't everything. It's not Call of Duty.

Can't wait to see which t 80 we're getting next update. I also think we could use some more top tier leopards for different nations just to ruin the game even more
Hey, Justin. When you're playing the Su-39 unless you are in a night battle there is no reason to bring the Mercury targeting pod. You get the same camera and zoom with the Su's onboard camera. Try bringing the Kopyo radar pod instead and using it in the air to ground PD mode.
When I use the TV camera it always locks on the ground not on the tank this way it looks to get a good lock immediately but is that a laser lock, giving the target a laser warning?
@@joehemsworth4162 The optical tracking lock (the square that appears around the target) does NOT provide a laser warning. Only when you switch the laser designator on or launch laser guided munitions such as Vikhr or Kh-25ML. You can tell the laser designator is on or not by the small circle on the inside of the square shaped optical tracking lock. In my experience playing tanks equipped with laser warning systems depending on the angle of attack from the incoming missile, sometimes you don't get a warning. It seems Gaijin actually went to the trouble to model the laser warning sensor coverage properly. For example I've died to missiles launched from directly above and not received a laser warning since my sensor didn't face up.
It's infuriating that Germany has not one SINGLE top tier vehicle that another nation doesn't have an upgraded version of. There is no other nation with this problem.
T-80U-E1 is more so 11.7 material than 11.3 material, not sure why they chose this variant to add in particular. It has Gen-2 thermals, and it is actually upgraded to fire 3BM60 and the 9M113-M1, and it also has a better turret drive than the T-80Us. It's a little bit annoying that the best 11.3 T-80U is the premium one that costs $75.
Bro, i had 2 games in one day where I shot ammo perfectly on this tank. Not 1 but 2 rounds went black. Both times they shot back at me and ammo racked me, watched the replay and a single fleck of shrapnel hit my ammo which turned orange and exploded. (Was driving Ariete) Gaijin devs definitely are coping hard over how much they overbuff the ammo racks on these things to make them somewhat survivable.
Yep this is very very common, no other nations tanks are able to survive ammo shots like this. Not only that but the ERA on the side of the t80 regularly stops even the best shells at the br. Any shot to any spot of any western hull WILL penetrate. But the t80 can stop side shots. LOL. And if by some miracle the round goes through the ERA, there's a good chance that the ammo just doesn't go off. Or if you aimed for the crew, the round will hardly produce any spall, so the crew survives unless you directly hit them. And when that t80 inevitably survives your shell, he will turn to you, he will not have to aim for lower front plates, he will not need to aim to avoid ERA, he will not need to aim for driver ports, he just has to point his gun in your direction, and you die.
For whatever reason the thing has nearly double the horizontal slewing speed despite utilizing the same stabilizer as the T-80U, but the snail cannot be questioned ig
Yeah, all the other 10.0+ maybe even a few lower br tanks have slower horizontal turret speed and slower vertical gun guidance than IRL, there are bunch of video that tested it out and counted the seconds
4:42 Removing the 2 mountains was probably the best decision, but it's the fact that they didn't really do anything else to make it enjoyable. The mountains made the map almost unplayable in some scenarios, but just removing them and adding basically nothing else was a poor move.
Kinda wicked how you got called a try hard for wiggling your turret. Honestly anyone with a brain would think to do it to make a shot on their barrel harder.
When it comes to russian mbts having gen2 thermals is a previlege, 90A/80BVM/90M are the only tech tree tanks that have those and yet gaijin decides to add another T-80 variant with better fire control system than T-80U as a pack premium. absolute joke
4:42 Yes. It was one of my favorite but ever since they changed the playing area I hate it. If they have an issue with spawncamping, give proper spawnprotection instead of these half-assed "solutions". On Normandy (1 cap) Gaijin just grabbed an eraser and cleared half of the map. "Nope, can't go there!" It's starting feel like WoT's "choose one of these three corridors" maps which I despise. Tl;dr: changing maps and routes is fine and could be interesting, but the recent changes are going in a terrible direction - artificial boundaries are not smart nor fun!
I picked it up recently to grind the Russian tech tree further where I was at 7-7.7. The highest BRs I played before were 9.3-10.3 in the German tt and I was a bit skeptical to dive into 11.7 BR territory but it turned out that 11.7 plays not bad at all. So far I enjoy this tank. If you are really focused on grinding, however, you better have another "not too much lower BR vehicle" for an improvised lineup. In my case I picked up 2s38 for the 2.5k GE + 2k GE which I had unspent since I bought my first premium. I was thinking of either taking it or 80ud but I was sold on 2s38's crisp thermals and AA capabilities.
I was wondering, which nation should I grind next, I’m almost finished with USA, and I don’t know which other nation to grind. I’m open to any suggestion, except Italy, France and Israel.
There is Also a new spot on Sweden along the left side outskirts towards the factory where an oil rig/mining rig stands that a bmp1-bmp2 can perfectly fit underneath and have full use of its atgm launcher. Flankers beware
The missile this tank gets... is honestly better than the regular SABOT round it gets. Can go through every single tank in this game. Just dumpedna 6 kill game and all were from that missile.
I wasn't joking about how gaijin added the Newly Leopard 2A4M premium without it provoking the Russian Top tier 8+ T-72/T-80 variant premium lineup and to add another one of that😂
Also lets not forget that they completely lied in the dev blog about leo2a4m having composite armour package installed which will provide almost similar protection to ones found on 2a7 series tanks but in game the composite armour package is nowhere near 2a7 and to top it off they removed the line stating about the armour from the dev blog too
Thanks for the video I got this tank and so far really enjoying it and now I have something to use the ka50 with that I have had for a long time. I plan on adding the UD to it the first time it’s 50% off later on down the road
Hey Justin, I played a game in my Merkava 1A, and I had a teammate being bullied by an L3CC I went around the corner, and shot it. I thought I was done, then looked again and my teammate was being shot by a Rtenkhampf(SP) and I'm like, two lil guys picking on a big guy, NOT gonna happen, and so I shot it too. LOL And in a previous game about 3 weeks ago, I was driving the L3CC with some other friends bullying an M1A1 Abrams. The Abrams tried to run me over, and I had the golden bb and shot right under him straight into his ammo rack point blank and he went KLABOOOOMMMMM!!! Was that the best god mode I ever earned. LOL. 🤣😂🤣
The biggest war thunder useful change of the 2024 model for the T-80BVM (including t-72b3) is just commander thermals and replacement of the cage armor with more ERA though in IRL the thermal sight gets a more useful cover without having to unbolt a plate and is halfway done inside the tank Few more smaller stuff but actually useful things
The only good thing about the new versions of some of the maps is the removal of mountains that helicopters use to hide behind from missles 6km outside the battlefield giving no way for ground AA to counter them but they only did that to a couple maps so it's still a problem. Other than that it's still the snails bad map designs with the fact that spawn camping is still to easy. Hell most maps you can snipe into the other team's spawn from across the map the moment they spawn in.
Wow...another exercise in the E-Z mode tech-tree vehicles. I always love your videos you put out Justin...but this one...just emphasize the frustration when facing such vehicles man...
I feel like most map changes now are ass because every map ive played so far has a spawn camping fucking problem and it takes nothing but to go to a spot and start shooting the people coming out of spawn
i actually like seeing more varients of the same vehicle. although they should focus on some other nations (which they did this time(italy)) that are severely lacking. maybe give the K2 to japan in a sub faction and maybe another Leclerc. my poor french tree needs love.
I think you covered it in your 2A7HU video but not only did Sands of Sinai get butchered previously, but also large Tunisia got butchered too. Went from like one of the more unique large maps to boring. I don't think gaijin understands map design quite yet
Sands of Sinai change for me is okay. Tho it does reduce the map size which should have been compensated by adding some areas on the dune side where A point is. But overall decent change.
Justin i enjoy your videos a lot but some of your takes are just wild. Sinai is so much more balanced now with the mountain that covered the entire map taken out. There isnt a cheesy spot where you can watch the entire rest of the map and stop any other gameplay anymore. You want a way to push? Play the sand dunes side.
Hey Justin, Can you make a video covering the few bugs this update cause to affect the Abram’s. The ammo storage racks are bugged and causing only the hull ammo to be the filled first, permanently having 6 rounds in the hull if you have more then 18 rounds. Also on the SEP the side of the turret armor is bugged as well compared to the other Abram’s models if you look in the extra view. I’ve commented on other CCs videos about this issue but I don’t think anyone is aware how broken this is making the Abram’s. They are already in a rough spot as is.

@@JustinPlaysTV actually pretty good, colors are so nice tbh too I use NVIDIA shadow play bc OBS lowers my FPS a lot. Last NVIDIA’s update gave us two options to record with H.264/HEVC or AV1, and I don’t know what’s the best.
AV1 is solid for for quality while compressed, and saves a TON of space, but it SUCKS to edit with. I was considering it but I can't stand Shadowplay and their super simplistic setup. Also I snuck in my color grading, am glad to see it came out looking nice :D
@@JustinPlaysTV Indeed, I get corrupted files all the time with AV1 also, explain the color trick you did in the next vid, if possible, because it's really comfortable for the eyes.
80u-e1 has bug. when gunner sight aiming enemy in that time commander sight's aım mode lookıng enemy's left. also one of lmg next to the cannon it's not shooting where u aiming , also lmg on commander hatch is not shooting where u aiming....
Here is some bias. The fact that its just .3 BR higher than the Swedish T80U is shocking, in almost every way the Swedish T80U is the same as the T80UD, except engine and the 10mm rubber fabric screen on the lower plate, oh and the shitty 1st gen thermals, but thats a whole BR difference, on top of that t90a, better shell, better thermals, 10.7
Yo guys, I kinda grinded USA, Germany and USSr, im wondering if I should finish them or (which I would prefer) start a new "little" nation. I don't want to grind for anotehr 200hours to get to toptier, I just want a fun nation that's good on ground and that has a bit of CAS. Is China a good option here? I do like the glass cannon playstyle with fast tanks btw
China is mostly an amalgamation of other nations vehicles - loads of USSR, USA and some Japan stuff. In that way its alright, but you'd be retreading the same ground. I'd recommend Italy for fun and more originality - there's also a good amount of glass canon style tanks such as the bredas, and decent cas options in the air tech tree
Some of you hate this because it’s “overpowered.” I hate this thing because my tech tree t-80u now feels less good simply by this vehicle existing… We are not the same…
Yeah, a T80U thats significantly better than the TT version at the same br? I love a bit of play to win at 11.3. Also that this thing is just objectively better than the arietes and challys, but at a lower BR? Insane. Also its arguably better than the leclercs and merks too, but they cant put it at 11.7 cuz then it would be "top tier premium," so they'll add it at too low of a BR, then let it sell like hot cakes cuz its OP.
I think the map change is good and bad. I think the big flank on the mountain was too op and some games would see 80% of players going there and all choppers taking that route. A better change would just be to change that section of the map or make the mountain itself smaller but that's probably a ton of work so this is a middle ground. Also Casual Tryhard is a great term haha
Honestly man.. I know that this is a bit off topic but Boosters should never be dependent on your team...(win or lose).. You can do soo good but your team holds you down and whoops.. 500xp boost is cooked
Russia has the best premium tank combo of all the nations you can play top tier and only use premium tanks and not suffer from them being lower tier I have taken out my fair share of 11.7 with the Turms and now with the t80ue1 makes it that much better was a little sad when i saw the t80ud had no thermals but she's still a beast.
Now that all these premium top tier tanks are coming out, all of the nation's win rates are gonna drop badly as USA'S did. Also if your reading this Justin, can we be In-game friends? I play pretty much everyday.
I’m gonna keep it real with you guys. I don’t like modern tanks. I’d rather stick to my Cold War/World War II. It’s more fun sometimes are pointing click and some just you gotta hit them a couple of times unlike just whoever sees whoever can get the first shot off first, I’d rather low tire
Sands of Sinai got butchered already last time when they removed to top of the hill fight... and they somehow might have made it even worse now, hard to say, only had it once... But their previous "fix" was awful already. The War Thunder map department is seriously the weakest thing on the team right now.

@@Prowamfordihno I have a better kd in the T-90M too, but that's because I use it more passively due to the slower reload
@@fasztorta0001Yes it kind of makes you automatically play more efficient right?

BVM is clearly the more comfortable machine to me as well.

Wow...another exercise in the E-Z mode tech-tree vehicles. I always love your videos you put out Justin...but this one...just emphasize the frustration when facing such vehicles man...
Auto loader protects the Russian ammos. Its why included in game :)
I feel like most map changes now are ass because every map ive played so far has a spawn camping fucking problem and it takes nothing but to go to a spot and start shooting the people coming out of spawn
Hey Justin can you do a gameplay vid on either the T90A or ZTZ99A?
i actually like seeing more varients of the same vehicle. although they should focus on some other nations (which they did this time(italy)) that are severely lacking. maybe give the K2 to japan in a sub faction and maybe another Leclerc. my poor french tree needs love.
I think you covered it in your 2A7HU video but not only did Sands of Sinai get butchered previously, but also large Tunisia got butchered too. Went from like one of the more unique large maps to boring. I don't think gaijin understands map design quite yet
Could you play the Strv-103?
Sands of Sinai change for me is okay. Tho it does reduce the map size which should have been compensated by adding some areas on the dune side where A point is. But overall decent change.
i would love to see some SU-27SM CAS gameplay next
Justin i enjoy your videos a lot but some of your takes are just wild. Sinai is so much more balanced now with the mountain that covered the entire map taken out. There isnt a cheesy spot where you can watch the entire rest of the map and stop any other gameplay anymore. You want a way to push? Play the sand dunes side.
Where is the camo net tho
Waiting for the summer sale to see if the Su39 goes on sale this time
Hey Justin,
Can you make a video covering the few bugs this update cause to affect the Abram’s. The ammo storage racks are bugged and causing only the hull ammo to be the filled first, permanently having 6 rounds in the hull if you have more then 18 rounds. Also on the SEP the side of the turret armor is bugged as well compared to the other Abram’s models if you look in the extra view. I’ve commented on other CCs videos about this issue but I don’t think anyone is aware how broken this is making the Abram’s. They are already in a rough spot as is.
The latest BVM you are referring to is the one Wich are using in the "Special Operation" the turtle BVM with random steel on top and on the side 😂
get out of here now!!! , we are all here to admire tanks and talk about tanks and wt , get your pro ukraine mind out of here this is not the place for you bro , we are here to enjoy gameplay you need to get out!!
Do you think the “black eagle” will be coming soon? And what as? Event, Prem, Squad or normal tech tree?
At their respective br between the T80UE1 and the T80UD which one is better?
Justin, you're late for the Su-27SM vid, we want to know if it's
worth grinding !!
Aim-120's said no cas for me!
@@JustinPlaysTV understandable xD
The t80 is the 2a4 if 11.3😊
Buy the t55am1 instead, same thing but lower br, obviously it has worse perfirmance but for 8.7 its a beast
Rip little L3 taking to soon 😢😢😢
Justin, do you use AV1 encoder in recording or H.264/HEVC ? and which is better:))
I use HEVC/AAC, since some of the latest updates now allow for it.
You tell me, how's it look compared to previous videos?
@@JustinPlaysTV actually pretty good, colors are so nice tbh too
I use NVIDIA shadow play bc OBS lowers my FPS a lot.
Last NVIDIA’s update gave us two options to record with H.264/HEVC or AV1, and I don’t know what’s the best.
AV1 is solid for for quality while compressed, and saves a TON of space, but it SUCKS to edit with. I was considering it but I can't stand Shadowplay and their super simplistic setup.
Also I snuck in my color grading, am glad to see it came out looking nice :D
@@JustinPlaysTV Indeed, I get corrupted files all the time with AV1
also, explain the color trick you did in the next vid, if possible, because it's really comfortable for the eyes.
80u-e1 has bug. when gunner sight aiming enemy in that time commander sight's aım mode lookıng enemy's left. also one of lmg next to the cannon it's not shooting where u aiming , also lmg on commander hatch is not shooting where u aiming....
Does anybody know if we gonna have summer sales by the end of this month. I wanna get the some premiums and im waiting for sales
What is your loadout for Su39?
what is the differnce beetween T 80 UK and this one ?
Here is some bias. The fact that its just .3 BR higher than the Swedish T80U is shocking, in almost every way the Swedish T80U is the same as the T80UD, except engine and the 10mm rubber fabric screen on the lower plate, oh and the shitty 1st gen thermals, but thats a whole BR difference, on top of that t90a, better shell, better thermals, 10.7
Yo guys, I kinda grinded USA, Germany and USSr, im wondering if I should finish them or (which I would prefer) start a new "little" nation. I don't want to grind for anotehr 200hours to get to toptier, I just want a fun nation that's good on ground and that has a bit of CAS. Is China a good option here? I do like the glass cannon playstyle with fast tanks btw
China is mostly an amalgamation of other nations vehicles - loads of USSR, USA and some Japan stuff. In that way its alright, but you'd be retreading the same ground.
I'd recommend Italy for fun and more originality - there's also a good amount of glass canon style tanks such as the bredas, and decent cas options in the air tech tree
Some of you hate this because it’s “overpowered.” I hate this thing because my tech tree t-80u now feels less good simply by this vehicle existing…
We are not the same…
Yeah, a T80U thats significantly better than the TT version at the same br? I love a bit of play to win at 11.3.
Also that this thing is just objectively better than the arietes and challys, but at a lower BR? Insane. Also its arguably better than the leclercs and merks too, but they cant put it at 11.7 cuz then it would be "top tier premium," so they'll add it at too low of a BR, then let it sell like hot cakes cuz its OP.
I think the map change is good and bad. I think the big flank on the mountain was too op and some games would see 80% of players going there and all choppers taking that route. A better change would just be to change that section of the map or make the mountain itself smaller but that's probably a ton of work so this is a middle ground.
Also Casual Tryhard is a great term haha
They might not win in real life, but they surely can win online!
the US needs a top tier SPAA
Justin can you play the m2a3 bradley??
I refuse to play war thunder until the Abrams neck shot is dealt with and fixed.
Why? It’s accurate
@camerongebler2473 No its not the shot would get deflected off the slope and shatter.
Also t80s fuel tank just ate shrapnels for breakfast
Honestly man.. I know that this is a bit off topic but Boosters should never be dependent on your team...(win or lose).. You can do soo good but your team holds you down and whoops.. 500xp boost is cooked
Russia has the best premium tank combo of all the nations you can play top tier and only use premium tanks and not suffer from them being lower tier I have taken out my fair share of 11.7 with the Turms and now with the t80ue1 makes it that much better was a little sad when i saw the t80ud had no thermals but she's still a beast.
Love it when Gaijin gives the the tech tree a worse T80 at 11.3 and the premium got a better 🫡
I'm sold on this one
Now that all these premium top tier tanks are coming out, all of the nation's win rates are gonna drop badly as USA'S did. Also if your reading this Justin, can we be In-game friends? I play pretty much everyday.
any Russian vehicle is the game on easy mode; just using the German 72 is pretty insane.
There is no reason for gaijin, not giving this thing 3BM60
Is there DEGMAN or M-84D ?
And still no t64bm bulat or t84 oplot
is it worth to buy that thing?
you should play the XM800T next
HELLO JUSTIIIIIIIIIIN
😂 a Russian HE shell point blank on an L3 is absolute criminal 25:35
More pollution of high tier premiums.
@JustinPlays Could you please play the A-10 with Mavericks in the next video because Mavericks got a new improved damage buff.
Ist the T-80U-E1 better then the T-80UK?
Yes.
idk why i bought this when i almost have all of the russian ground tree (i've got about 6 vehicles left)
russia gonna be like usa with the same tank 15 times
My T 80 doesn’t have thermals???
Justin constantly edging 100k makes me want to scream.
What’s the deal RUclips!?
Calm down lil bro
Me still waiting for M829A3
I’m gonna keep it real with you guys. I don’t like modern tanks. I’d rather stick to my Cold War/World War II. It’s more fun sometimes are pointing click and some just you gotta hit them a couple of times unlike just whoever sees whoever can get the first shot off first, I’d rather low tire
Sands of Sinai got butchered already last time when they removed to top of the hill fight... and they somehow might have made it even worse now, hard to say, only had it once... But their previous "fix" was awful already.
The War Thunder map department is seriously the weakest thing on the team right now.
20 seconds is crazy
