Oh look, all these folks crying about how pershing will be the most OP tank in history without knowing a single stat or anything about how the tank will be implemented actually.
So, lets get the facts straight.
Pershing health - 800 (same as panther) in comparison is-2/tiger has 1040, KT has 1280
Front armor - 290 (slightly less than panther , panther has 320) IS-2 has 375
Range - 50 (same as panther) IS-2 has 40 tiger/kt has 45
Penetration - 220/240/260 ( same as panther)
Speed - slower than panther
Anti infantry power - about as good as PIV/comet/churchill etc.
vet 1 ability - HVAP rounds ( i believe)
Oh NO, so OP, USF gets a slower panther which with a bit more punch againts infantry which faces much better anti tank than the panther.
The end is NEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEIGH.
#USFOP
Oh and BTW, the pershing will take the exact same amount of shots from AT as an E8/bulldozer. Only difference between pershing and E8 is that pershing has more armor, making it deflect shots more. But againts high powered axis AT, pershing will be no more durable than an E8.
