I don't think any one can claim that a F2P game can't function without P2W.
I do think that most for-profit game developers and publishers prefer to introduce P2W elements in F2P games so that they can make money.

I think it is just fine the way it is. You are going to have people on both sides of the battle that are subs. So when you have tanks coming to attack to quickly you also have tanks coming quickly to defend. I have no problem with SOE making money. The more money they make the more devs they can keep on the game. I saw a post about killing someone 1vs1 and they comeback with a tank. Its you still being their that got you killed not his tank. I am fine with people paying to have more perks. If you want to pull back to back to back tanks then pay a few bucks for a boost. If not then pay attention to the flow of resources, cap the right bases, and don't over commit your tank. Now on a side note if SOE could bring back boomers to cloakers it would be greatly appreciated.

The only thing you cannot but are premium tanks and garage slots. You can live without garage slots, it is like character slots, but on games like that you like to have several characters, but they aren't necessary, you can always sell one to get another. All premium tanks are worst that the no premium ones, they sells because people wants to level fast with then, everyone is ok with that.

Just because a game allows its players to theoretically buy anything without having to spend real money on it does NOT mean that a game is not P2W.
The key word is "theoretically". If a game's system is such that a gamer must endure a relatively long time of being soundly defeated by others (who do chose to spend real money on stuff) while earning enough XPs to buy something without having to spend real money on it, then I think that game IS P2W in actuality. It's like saying that theoretically everybody has the ability to become President of the United States so long as they're a US citizen. While that ability theoretically exists, in actuality the chances of doing so are slim unless you have all the readily accepted prerequisites.
