tier X heavy tank BZ-72-1
From supertest, there is another tier X heavy tank: it’s Chinese, the BZ-72-1. The special mechanic is still the jet boosters to sprint into the battlefield of like a battering ram.
The rockets boost the top speed of this tank into 75 km/h with astronomically high specific power of 41.67 hp/ton. This already makes the BZ-72-1 as fast as the CS-63 with turbo mode, and actually faster up a hill.
But the BZ-72-1 is a beast with Bond Turbo, because it gets 56 km/h top speed. So it can boost its top speed into 84/87 km/h, because the rockets are a 1.5x multiplier to top speed.
The BZ-72-1 is 54 tons: it’s not the heaviest ramming machine in the world, but propelling a 54 ton tank at 90 km/h has potentil to cause unprecedented ramming damage to anything but stuff like the Maus or Type 5 Heavy. With Controlled Impact, this tank would be able to nuke some medium tanks from full HP.
Again, this tank is almost totally invented by Wargaming.
