that is because of how nonsense overpressure works. unless gaijin actually finishes the mechanic we’ll never have it fixed so a toggle for tusk is needed
apfsds can also pen gun shield
the abrams have alot of issue
fix them first then we can make changes for it
but id need to wait 2-4 more years until they fix one of them
There are 3 sub variants of SEPv2. The first SEPv2 relatively little weight increase from SEPv1, and that difference can be explained by the addition of new systems such as that famously chunky RCWS rather than differences in armor. Later SEPv2 are a different story and I´m trying to make sense of it.
the problem is to get gaijin to even fix the current issue
they too busy making money
And hopefully, they add Sepv3 this year which been long overdue
sepv2 was mostly to digitalize the tank, but there is no way cabling and motors weigh more than hydraulics right?
they probably add it as a premium
adding sep v3 wont change any of the current problem of the abrams, they need to fix the current problem first
hell they wont even implement things the sep v3 would have
absolutely impossible
They kept adding stuff to the tank. The graph doesn´t go into details so I can´t assure its weight going to armor. Perhaps it accounts for ARAT and stuff.
true but it would significantly increase the armor. thats not the main issue with abrams as you say tho
I don’t see them ever adding sepv3 as a premium.
well see about that
no the green and yellow weight doesnt account for armor packages, atleast as far as i understand it
it will still have dumb overpressure stuff, turret ring too exposed ufp wrong thickness, side armor turret still shit, tusk is also still shit and wrong hydraulic pump position
tusk would fix the problems with side armor, if it was implemented properly. gaijin doesnt implement western armor packaged properly though.
thats the problem
fix the current shit first
i agree.
Lets not go into trying to interpret the meaning of the colors. The full graph showing all M1 variants is even more inconsistent/confusing. Anyways, at some point during SEPv2 production, tanks stopped being marked with “U” and begun showing other markings. So theres a theory that later SEPv2 have a different armor package than HAP-3.
My hope is when they add sepv3 it also comes with all the bug reports that were passed but that probably won’t happen.
exactly my point, they have so many things overdue i doubt they would fix anything before sep v3 even come
