They dont care. They wont do the upgrade for the abrams as they wont do the one fore the leo2a7. They simply ignore all your sources, as they did with the stinger and leo and so on. They use imaginary numbers, which itself wouldnt be problem, if they wouldnt present them as historical.

It was a Swedish design, made by the Swedish company Åkers Krutbruk “in cooperation with” IDB. Åkers Krutbruk was later bought by IDB.

I stand with US and German mains in getting appropriate armour corrections for M1 and A7V, but this happens to be true.
EDIT: In order to not clog up this thread, I will reply to your response here.
MEXAS is a modular system, not a material. Åkers Krutbruk could very well have engineered an armour material, either alone or in cooperation with IDB, which was integrated into MEXAS. Strv 122 was up-armoured during the trials using (at least partly) Swedish-designed modules. This is supported by very trustworthy sources, such as the one I linked above (the author being literally the project leader for Strv 122 protection development).

ah yes the Stinger sources all saying 20-22G and we get 13G because the devs believe it cant pull 20G its just pure bs at this point

So you guys increase the weight of every subsequent Abrams variant by tons… but then you state the addon armor inserts dont exist? Where does that extra weight come from Gaijin? Where?

I don’t find it, incredible,… when you know they didn’t fixed Etendard IVM for 3 years because they are Unable to read french and understand it,…
It’s just a similar issue of No-Skill from Gaijin Devs,…

Probably the same thing they did with Leopard 2A7V and the Abrams tanks:
“We are right, you and your several dozen sources are wrong, screw you.”
Seriously. On the one hand, I am glad they are transparent enough to say it to ourfaces now, on the other hand, I am greatly disappointed to see how they butcher vehicles by misunderstandings and misinterpretations.
On the bright side, now that we know what’s wrong with them, we can correct them more easily. That’s why I am kinda happy about this communication. On the other hand, I am not too optimistic that they will listen anymore.

Wouldnt be surprised if Gaijin actually thinks thats the Leo 2 TVM MAX (also known as the Leopard 2 Improved) and Leopard 2A7V (V for Verbessert which translates to improved) are the same tank at this point.

But they are not sane, none of them are sane. Also. They don’t play their own game.

Totally brooo:
Ignoring how the armour was in works since at least 1988, and was a part of a wider family of armour, but somehow it was completely developed by Akers… which later acquired a license for it, lmao.

9.0 is not the only BR that needs expension…
The reality is that 9.0 BR needs 2 more steps of BR extension
10.0 needs 2 more
11.0 needs 1 more
12.0 needs 1 more
But also, 8.3 BR needs 1 more.
So that’s 7 BR steps → 12.3 become 14.7

Huge kick in the balls for everyone who worked very hard on the Abrams/2A7V bug reports. Also how would M829A3 not make a difference if it literally was designed to counter heavy ERA???

Can y’all at least give the Merkava 4’s 6s reload on an Ace crew???

2 possible things.
BR up to 15.0 for ground and air - so many vehicles are skiped or not played cause they dont fit thier BR
LOCK top tier (so 12.3) into top tier only - so only 12.3 vehicles are allowed, there will never be 12.0 or lower.

Excuse me, can I get some information about the spall liners for ztz and vt4？Do they actually have it and would they get it? @Stona_WT

True.
9.0 is fully relieved with just a 0.3 increase of all the 10.0s.
You can combine 12.0 & 11.0 since increasing 12.0 to 12.3 fixes the 11.0s.
And 10.0 - 11.0 is already fixed.

Which they will just ignore
To make almost all old 9.0 jets playable, they need to stop facing supersonic jets.
How bad it was for supersonic jets to face subsonic jets can be seen what the MiG-19PT, Mitsubishi T-2, F-4C in 2019 and the F-104A and EEL in 2020 did against subs.
There is literally nothing the Hunter F.1 can do against all supersonic aircraft except full commit headon, and the Venom FB.4 facing the MiG-19 is just a joke.
To make them playable, almost all supersonic aircraft and advanced missile carriers such as Yak-38s, All 9.7 harriers, A-4N, Hunter F.6 etc would need to be BR 10.3 or higher, but there is not enough room to do that with the BR cap at 13.0.
At best, when they get a full uptier game, the only aircraft they can face should be late subsonic like the Shenyang F-5, G.91YS, J32B, Hunter FGA.9 etc.

It makes sense it took the Swedes to actually improve the armor. It’s no secret IBD struggles with quality armor. The US Army had to add additional steel to the Stryker hulls to offset IBD’s incompetence.:
