Jagdpanzer 4 - Underrated and Underused?
Posts: 2070
1. Very good armor. It can bounce ISU shots and other anti-tank rounds
2. Extremely potent vet bonuses.
3. Pretty decent cost, especially for a faction that floats manpower.
4. Comes out fast (if you don't build any other vehicle)
Like many other tank destroyers, the Jagdpanzer 4 requires support in order to be effective. Nevertheless, it remains an extremely potent weapon. I like to call it "Jagdtiger Junior" because it performs almost as well. I would dare say, that the Jagdpanzer 4 is OP with high vet, but that is another topic.

No, just not, an ISU rapes the jp4 and just today I destroyed a jp4 with a jackson easily, granted he used it badly but I've never ever seen a jackson not penetrate a jp4 since the last patch.

Unless you are dealing with scotts spam the panther performs better in every Circumstance, it still remains a good solution if you lost your t3, but you definitely shouldn't just get the jp4, unless you are planning on doing a t1+t2 strat with call in infantry and possibly a light vehicle (I like to do that with the LJI one).

You're wrong JP4 is superior.

And i was surprised by the SU85's performance in the last games i had, a positive surprise in fact.

JP IV > Panther
No need to worry about Jacksons and SU-85 with it. I just don´t like to charge into them with Panthers.
Vet2 on the JP IV (+10% armour, +25% HP, +35% sight range) is the best vet bonus in the game imo.

I even go as far as to say:

JP4 VIVA LA JP4!

It's attributes are exaggerated, IIRC it's got less penetration and a lower ROF than the SU-85 and penning it frontally with the Jackson is much easier than it used to be.

The only issue it has is that rubbish pathing for turretless tanks.

Pathing is of course the issue. How many times have I started to sweat trying to get JP4 out of the action and the tank starts to do some crazy circles.

poeple think the jp4 is bad? try using the su85
Try building more than one JgdPz in a game, I dare you. If you succeed, count the number of su-85s built in the meanwhile. Your bias will decrease by a mile.
