Compared to the Pak 43, 17pdr costs fuel 75(!) for a immobile emplacement and 400 MP. Another thing is that is has pay through Sabot Rounds to shot through shot blockers unlike the Pak 43. Pak 43 also has super turbo stun everything round. At least it does have flares to reveal the area. I remember so many OST and OKW players raging that my 17 pdr emplacement was penetrating and destroying their Tigers and Panthers. I guess only Axis can have the best anti-tank weapons
I think USF players will be crying over Firefly more than the 17pdr emplacement considering it does 240 damage, more armor (for what its worth with Allies), as mobile, increased damage at Vet 3, and HP compared to the Jackson. Same range too for only 30 more fuel. Has a 9 second reload it seems however. So it looks like Jackson will be better against medium tanks than heavy tanks but can still use HVAP rounds for increased damage and penetration.
yeah sure it is counterable nothing to argue about it... but keep in mind it is undoctrinal (compared to the Pak43) and will hardcounter every german tank on the field (imo allies have enough letal counters against Heavy Tanks (vet tds (Sus), Jackson, Firefly, ISU, vet AT Guns).
A 17.pounder + mark target will probably kill a KT in 4-5 shots...

I think the British Forces/ the 17. pounder will be very strong in team games (probably too strong) but well lets see
