You were provided with reliable information on the armour upgrades in several reports in regards to the 2A7V, which also spoke of the requirements created for the vehicle being;
“Hull has to provide equeal protection to the turret”

Firstly, you can see that the Swedish tender is for a vehicle equipped with a B-technology armour and MEXAS-H add-on armour, meaning you’ve compared a vehicle created 30 years after the prototype, with a newer internal armour package, and likely an improved add-on armour package over the original MEXAS, to a prototype with an internal package INFERIOR to what you’ve given to the Leopard 2A5.
THAT IS ILLOGICAL.
The Swedes didn’t develop “own, completely new, reinforced armour package”, their vehicles were completely identical to TVM max/min in terms of protection (they weight the exact same for god’s sake, both were 62.5 tons), as they were based on those (C-technology + MEXAS-H add-on package), this is easily verifiable considering the fact the difference between B & C-technology armours is around ~80mm’s, the exact difference between the SVT (which was built for life-fire armour trials, i.e the vehicle compared to the TVM “Swedish Solution”).
As you can see from the armor resistance diagrams from the Swedish tender, the mounted package D-2 in combination with package B provides protection of only 45% of the frontal projection from APFSDS with a penetration of 600mm, but in the game a different combination of armor protection packages is presented, providing protection of more than 65% of the frontal projection from threats of this type.
A lot of words to explain completely nothing. Explain how is it possible for it to provide the exact same amount of hull protection then? You have clearly forced the vehicle to fit protection standards of a much older vehicle, based on your own inability to estimate based on requirements set out for a vehicle.
Oh, and you also wanna talk about the vehicle matching the Swedish graphs, explain this then @Stona_WT;
It clearly is not matching ANYTHING.
You haven’t even noticed you’re using the Protection Analysis in the wrong way, have you even checked out the “consider camera angle” box? Doesnt’ seems so… because the upper plate doesn’t protect against 600mm in the slightest, in fact it makes the tank less armoured than it should be.
You have reliable evidence, but you are refusing to read it - because the requirements are crystal clear. Hull = turret, meaning whatever protection the turret provides, the hull will as well.
I’ve completely lost my trust in the devs as of today, this is quite frankly ridiculous that we, the playerbase have to put up with THIS level of ignorancy.
In fact, this isn’t even ignorance at this point, YOU ARE ACTIVELY GASLIGHTING YOUR PLAYERBASE.
