Hi. I'm a long time BF2 tank driver, and not so long time BF3 tank driver.
I have a problem though in understanding of a certain thing: why is IFV can kill me (tank) faster, than i can even disable him.
I mean, i have not problem taking enemy tanks, due to many yrs of bf2 experience, i have pretty good aim, and in 70% chance, i kill the enemy tank by maneuvering and hiding behind obstacles. I even can pretty easy destroy enemy helis and jets.
BUT, when it comes to IFV, i am geting raped even with reactive armor: i spot him, i shoot him 2 times, he may!!! get disabled if doesn't have reactive armor, but i have an advantage, right? And then he returns the fire, 1 second...tank disabled, can't move, can't maneuver...2 seconds - i'm dead.
So how can it be possible, that an fast, lightly armed Anti-Infantry vehicle, face to face, can destroy a slow, heavy tank beast 2 times faster than a tank can destroy it.
Currently, when i play on Gulf of Oman, when i see that an IFV spotted me, I being in a tank(sic!), run like OH SHIT SHIT, release the iv smoke and on extra speed driving behind the cover. The only way to get them, is to flank them, which i do, however their advantage in speed makes it very hard to do so.
Can anyone suggest me some tactics how to stay alive in tank vs IFV?
