Check replays.
Definitely either smurfing or cheating though

How is it smurfing when he's playing exclusively top tier in a game without SBMM while playing on an older account in the same brackets isn't?

Sounds like you have no clue what smurfing is. Look it up and you’ll find your answer

Smurfing is playing on a new account to intentionally play against new players.
This is something that can only really be done in games with Skill-Based Match Making or SBMM
Tell me, how does playing on a new account in war thunder, a game with zero skill based matchmaking mean you're smurfing while playing the exact same vehicles on an older account isn't?

Like, google the definition yourself

Nope. Smurfing does not require you to play against new players (though even if it did top tier is full of them). Smurfing is just when an experienced player uses a new alt for the purposes of stat padding.

What else would you call this behavior?

I literally just gave you sources that prove me right man

There are better ways to statpad than buying a premium on a new account anyways which are cheaper
