The BTR-60 has better base stats than the only 3 cost 5 star medium - the Panther/M10. Skill wise... 50 hp/sec isn't bad in theory. Anything that saves on repair bills and shifts more fights towards knock-down drag-out brawls is good. 50 hp/sec isn't going to counter direct fire from anything, but it could be enough to keep your artillery from getting wiped out by incidental fire.
For it's active... without the M3 Halftrack's passive an ablative cat field is still going to evaporate instantly, so you'd have to deploy the BTR-60 and halftrack basically on top of each other given how short ranged command aura is. It would work well on maps where you're facing lots of tank destroyers and few artillery. If a cat survives long enough to take an anti-tank missile to the face, it's worth it.
... I still grabbed the PT-76 first because I've managed to miss it every single year before this...
You mean to heal herself? Her level doesn't effect the skill, but it would her armor.
The cat soldiers need a higher starting HP or .2 seconds of invulnerability or something. Right now the constant damage tics on some maps will gib cat soldiers the instant they deploy, before passives like Julie's 'command aura' can even take effect.
Just had a thought - The cat infantry don't have any native penetration, right? Can they even damage higher level enemies? You'd need an armor-shred light tank or Wendy's active skill. Seems you'd have an almost fixed selection of front line units at that point. BTR-60, M3-Halftrack, Flammpanzer 38, PT-76, T-70. Maybe AMX-40 or an infantry unit if you have the perfect storm of emblems for it.
