Abram's gunshield missing armor (found proof ATTN: Mods)

Great catch, I added it to the rotor bug report as both were accepted but commenting for the gunshield armor was closed. Thank you

And have the reports on the Abrams turret ring been accepted or not?

Yes about 2 years ago M1 Abrams (all subvariants) incorrect turret ring // Gaijin.net // Issues it’s never getting fixed at this point, like the many other abrams bug reports that are still waiting to be implemented. I’m sure the gunshield bug report will end up the same way.

Oh. It says there that Gaijin doesn’t care about the work done by the author, and that they make such holes in the armor deliberately.

pls site references so I can read them for myself.

This is what amazes me about how Gaijin treats a lot of vehicles. They’ll make things up and extrapolate and other times they wont. So you wind up with the P-47 flaps issue, even though it’s hydraulics are practically the same as the corsair’s

Gaijin being picky choosy with top-tier jets on what missiles they get, their performance, Remember the F-15E? Or the fact it’s supposed to have an AESA?

or what about the fact the F-8E is still missing ACM?
But don’t worry. Reports on Russian aircraft mysteriously stay open or you get stuff like this

Original post made in July of 25. Still no fixes.

Don’t hold your breath, changes of this type takes a minimum of 6 months usually much longer, they wait to add stuff that will maintain the game balance before they add missing realistic features.

uuufff, that’s gonna be a LONG wait… Balacing 9.7 and higher Russia will take years (for Gaijin)

Does it add protection that is significant enough to stop ammunition used in its br?

Wait, CAS could have a real purpose in the game besides sliming everyone and all? Nonsense. ATGMs might have a purpose at top tier? Bollocks. Teamplay might be viable? That’s civilization’s marketing lie.

Hey БЕИ! Towards the center of the gunshield, it could be +200mm more so potentially yes.

Current dev server has gun mantlet changes on the base tech tree M1A1
Visually it looks alot better now but in terms of performance if anyone here can report if its correct?
Im honestly not entirely sure in some spots i can see up to a 140mm difference in armor while others it regressed which still feels wrong tbh but im not an expert on this topic


Indeed, the new trunion model is certainly better, however it still misses the intermidiate piece:

the trunion looks like it is in the right place, so i would thus suggest the outer portion of the mantlet needs to be made smaller(shorter in depth) to allow for room of this piece.

have you checked the backside of the trunion block? it looks hollow to me compared to the old one

Oh, that’s good then! Should the holes for the pins be filled though? I don’t quite recall at the moment but i feel like they are on some tanks, could be wrong though :)
