For me it doesnt I would say such if for me it would have worked
P sure hull rack is separated from the crew while rest of the belt goes out of the hull to feed the gun
Yeah that’s like putting a 2A7 at 10.3 and saying AiM bEtTeR

sorry but idk if you know but the ammo goes through the turret where the crew is
Im using the same term you would use for fuel tanks that are “external” meaning separated from the crew compartment.
Do you consider these to be exterior aswell then?
This one is separated from the crew aswell afterall…
Blowout panels in war thunder don’t work like you think they do.
Even though patents say “explosions” government documents say “explosions” they only protect against fires.
This is not true.
They also protect against detonations to some extend in-game;
If you take full KE ammunition, you cannot die when the blast-doors are not perforated.
If you take any amount of HE/HEAT/HESH/etc. the odds of overpressure-damage killing the crew, despite of the blast-doors not being perforated increases.
Thanks for proving what I said
what please show us the blowout channel on the war thunder model
That’s what you call discrediting by the way.
Not sure what you mean but the M24 has been in the game for more than a week. What even is your point here?
You can say what you like, but the BMPT-72 is by far the best performing rank VII vehicle you have. That simply cannot be a coincidence. There isn’t much debate about that. It is simply much better than any other IFV in its tier and above. The Namers at 11.3 have four unreliable missiles (with no ammo box) and a gun with better penetration but poor rate of fire, and they get lolpenned by any Soviet MBT, even in a full downtier. The same applies to vehicles like the PUMA, which is easily penetrated by any MBT and lacks the missiles of the BMPT to take on said MBTs head-on (your own stats confirm its poor performance). Or compare the M3A3 or Desert Warrior to it. How can they be just 0.3 BRs below it? Being largely immune to tanks, even in an uptier, is wild for such a vehicle. This is very similar to the situation with the PUMA when it was released at 8.3.

The vertical belt feed? Thats what im talking about
No there is no seperation there is no armor between that and the crew its open
So where exactly do you think the explosion pressure (“explosion” may be misleading*) is supposed to be vented out towards?
Do you understand how blow-out panels work?
The belt goes inside the vehicle and crew-compartment.
The entire ammunition-storage, minus the final-feeding system, is inside said crew-compartment.
It’d be like saying “oh look, but there is 5mm armour around gepards belt, so it shouldnt die when the feed into the guns is hit”
There is no blowout panel on the BMP-T, the belts run all the way down to the autoloader, and the crew sits next to it, if there is an ammo cook off the ammo belts will burn all the way down to the autoloader, making the tank explode.
In WT the explosion should literally travel down to the hull ammo, if it was a blowout protected compartment it should have been designated as first stage ammo and receive the drawbacks that has.
But since all ammo is readily available it stands to reason any ammo detonation should kill it.
Wait did they not model the autoloader around the ammunition feed belts like the puma?! LOL
(notice lack of pink on the feed system)
They really favoured it in terms of modules tbh (first vehicle w/ detailed modules to not have the commander’s display & aim-controls as part of the fcs, has no basket, despite there very obviously being one)
But then again, it’s gaijin and they completely re-shape how they model detailed modules about every tuesday.
