It's hard to say, I think in order to fix it you would need to change a lot because when you change something you need to consider all the match ups, as an example I believe USF's problem is riflemen weighting down the faction late game, I would probably change the curve to be a bit weaker early game but scale better as the game proceeds, this would help versus the OH match up.

This in turn would make USF completely die to OKW since they ALREADY have an early edge versus USF, so then you would have to change volks, I would probably make them more costly to build. But then you would need to adjust the OKW vs UKF match up which OKW historically already struggles etc etc. It wouldn't be an easy fix but it could be fixable. It would just needed to be adjusted step by step which considering how late we are in the game lifecycle it's just not doable.

I fail to see how the M-42 shell switch is any different from Sherman shell switch, because like I said multiple times before the Sherman doesn't do deflection damage on its HE shells. If that's the case, you had ought to advocate for this change to both of them. But really it should be all-or-nothing, because changing those two and not the ISU is neither consistent nor intuitive.

EDIT: Also I've no idea why you mention that "Vehicles have two options free fire/ignore soft targets", because AT guns have the exact same options.

The Sherman when switching shell retain whatever fire mode you was in, so it still can fire on tank with HE or at infantry with AP. Since we're at switchable shell, making priority vehicle the default mode for AP and change to HE turn to free fire seem like a reasonable QOL change.

I wonder if it might something to do with it being an AT weapon with AI ability.
