After analysing the rework;
Hull provides 330mm KE (without tracks)
Turret provides 415mm KE
Turret + WAR provides 500mm KE
A step into the right direction!
However, all of the composite modules, including the WAR kit, share a x0.35 KE multiplier.
Gaijin finally got the thicknesses and geometries right; however, I believe the KE multiplier of the composites may be a bit too low.
0.35, when rubber’s multiplier is 0.20, suggests that this composite is barely better than rubber…
If the multiplier was 0.50, turret + WAR would be nearing 600mm KE, which would appear to be more sensible.

I would like to support your Bug report, can you give me the link… Also, since I’m late, can you tell me if they’ve already fixed the C1 Ariete’s armor?

They have not. They modified it slightly last update which made it a TINY bit stronger (like 50mm) but the WAR wasn’t modified and is still extremely wrong, and the overall protection is still lower than what it should be. Again; particularly with the WAR kit installed

I imagined similar behavior from Gaijin… Their reasoning is: Not a Russian vehicle, so “selective realism” applies only for Russia, for all other nations, fictional vehicles are created and then nerfed
