Test 2 vehicle changes from wotnews

Oookay so the tier 8 and tier 9 Waffentragers get a very mean nerf bat, rather unnecessary one...They were fine as they were, perhaps Wargaming is trying the old and tested "Lets have some bad vehicles in the line so that people Free XP through them for goldz!" method? Hard to say. Apart from that, an odd extra is a nerf to T7 combat car penetration - 50 cal BMG is used only on the M2 Light tank where it can penetrate merely 22mm. Guess someone did not consider their numbers first.  I doubt there will be a Test 3, so we can probably expect patch 8.9 in the next couple of weeks.
