They do sometimes make interesting takes
Just look at the steal beasts estimates, those KE values on sides and mantlet look like a dream in war thunder world. The question why we, the player base have to fight so much for very rational changes remains unanswered for me
As that change would make a hull down Cr2 a very hard to kill tank. As for the sides they just dont care i guess.
I know steelbeasts isnt seen as a reliable source but where/what do they even base their estimates on?
At least higher than 30ke
It’s funny, as for the most part steelbeast probably have a more accurate depiction of the challenger 2 than wt right now.
I suspect it comes back to their interpretation of STANAG levels. Gaijin have a sheet of intended protection levels and for side appliqué the values listed are for 60 degree impacts vs darts, which tends to fit with vehicles having protection levels provided “over the frontal 60 degree arc”/30 degrees off centreline
I know finding data on the challenger 2 is basically impossible. But is there really nothing on the nera plates found on the avre, challenger 1 and 2? It seems to be the easiest aider armour to find the values for due to its age.
Steel beasts is a far from accurate representation so don’t even reference it
Which makes it funny that it is probably more accurate, or closer to the actual values at least.
faster reloading, better hull ke is fine
I wish I knew where their stats come from, we then could use those sources here
Would be 600mm KE if it were a Swedish vehicle.
0.3 is tooo low, 0.5,0.6 will be fine
you should be happy it is 0.3, not the ususal 0.1
Oh wait it is, just angled
I think the composite screen used by A7V is much higher than 0.16
