It has both the worst penetration AND the worst accuracy of all the "tier IX" cannons for heavy tanks. I agree, the T5E1 is all the cannon that should ever be put on the tier VII T29, it should be as good a cannon as the T29 should have access to. But at tier VIII, it lags far behind due to the increased armor of the opposing tier VIII heavy tanks. The T32, and right now the T34, as well as what ever replaces the T34, whenever that happens, need a true tier IX cannon. Call it the T5E2, make it the final gun upgrade on the T32, not available to the T29 at all, give it 225-230 penetration, and 0.34 or better accuracy. No damage buff or RoF buff needed, just some decent penetration and accuracy. The U.S. heavy line desperately needs a true tier IX cannon.
