One from myself here. You can see the end of the plate is flush with the rear plate
So essentially the other side of the highlighted square number 2?
That perspective confuses me, so does the plate widen?
Ahh i see, so in the first photo it looked flush to the surface, if it’s running past then yes it would be a fillet weld from both sides meaning you’d essentially take off the width of the weld.
To me it looks as if the weld was shallower up there, making the plate appear wider
Basically 40mm then, you can see it more clearly in this photo.
Well, the tape says 40, and i bugs me we cant clearly see it is a cr2
So, we doing the 40 or no? Not a huge buff but still, and we have 2 photos
i mean would it theoretically be possible that the fighting compartment has extra side armor like we see with leos and abrams?
Of course it is possible. After all you can replace the engine, but you can’t replace the crew

let do this guy vote about bug report implementation
I would say it’s 40mm, sheet steel wouldn’t come in 38mm it’s an odd number tbh, 40mm is much more freely available. I know this isn’t armour quality but i very much doubt they’d specifically want 38mm https://www.metalsupplies.com/products/mild-steel-plate/
We have 2 pics, one newer one with 40 and one worn out with 38. It is clear like day for ma that it is 40 in that spot. If it is 50 inside is a different story

That’ll be harder to prove, unless you can get a set of digital calipers on a hull being built like in the photo i personally would say it’s 40mm.
Well, we have the cutouts for the transmission and inside of the hooks, maybe we can pixel it? Ah yea, we would need to know the width of the inside of the hook

On another note do we have the spaced armour section around the turret ring like on the left of that photo?
I dont know anything bout it
Another photo
And it give us the info that the hooks at the front are the same thicness
tbh at this point 38mm - 40mm lets just accept 40 for now, focus are efforts in areas which make a bigger difference.
