another tank regiment suggestion - enjoy ben shapiro!!!!
What does this suggestion change/add/remove:
This suggestion is to readd the K-17, a version of the current K-16 which has an Explosive Cannon (Similar/exact same as the PUMA) and Double ATGM Rockets. In return, the K-16's slots will be reduced to 2 and the BTR-90 can also be reduced to 2 slots. As it currently stands, the K-16 is an incredibly ineffective vehicle which only purpose is to destroy emplacements, as it's cannon kills them quickly. The BTR-90 is a vehicle which is never really used, and is overall a glass-cannon with little to no damage against infantry or tanks, or just entirely remove it as it serves little purpose due to it's bad engine.
I would also like to point out that ATGMs are overall very inconsistently and a fair amount of times don't actually do any damage (for some reason).
The K-17 would be able to face off against 10k HP tanks better than the BMP can
Has something similar been suggested before? If so, why is your suggestion different?:
No.
Possible Positives of the suggestion (At least 2):
More usage of IFV's against NATO
Balances NATO / USSR IFVs, as NATO get 4 IFV slots with ATGM, while USSR only get 2 IFV slots with ATGM (which is also being nerfed significantly)
New glass cannon Tank Destroyer..
Possible Negatives of the suggestion:
Might be unbalanced slightly, as the K-17 is superior to NATO's Marder and Bradley in basically every way.
May take dev time if devs seek to remove the Double ATGMs.
Based on the Positives & Negatives, why should this suggestion be accepted:
I feel this suggestion should be accepted on the basis that tank regiments (USSR mostly) never touch IFVs, the K-17 would be a reasonable addition as it's not overly powerful and takes 3-4 AT4s / 2 Tank Cannon shots to kill. This suggestion wouldn't require any dev time, as the K-17 is in a functional state and could just be added alongside the addition changes to balance out getting a new ATGM IFV.
