So the conclusion here is that the Stuart suffers greatly from essentially always being at FAR range due to its shite Range profile while the T-70 is almost always at Near Range thus making it significantly more potent due to the large increase in accuracy between Near and Far.
Not really.
1) Accuracy of 37mm gun is 0.05/0.0375/0.025 that mean in best case 1 shot out of 20 will actually score a hit vs an entity of target Size 1.
2) Stuart has modifier that reduce damage vs infatry:
Main gun damage vs infantry set to 0.75 so even a direct hit will do 60 damage.
Note that T-70 does 40 damage.
And here are the scatter values:
Scatter T-70
Scatter angle 7.5
Distance offset 0.15
Distance ratio 1
Distance max 2.5 with an AOE of 2
Scatter Stuart
Scatter angle 5
