It will make killing the tank with stock HEAT miserable though.
It may also help to eat ATGMs that hit there.
Ironically they put Relict on the rear of the tank, very strange design choices.
I swear if the holy “Relict” or kontact was any good western tanks would be plastered with it. I reckon it sucks irl or fails to even detonate a lot of the time.
(Using DM53 L55) If you hit above the center of the back, the round will not reach the crew. It will stop at the engine
iirc isnt it attached by wooden planks? if that got shot, the plank would break and those other parts would be useless.
POV: you gave your position away
IRL that turret is in low earth orbit with a smoking crater where the hull once stood
It’s more like most NATO nations see multi-hit protection as more valuable than single hit protection and NERA/SLERA provide good enough protection without risk of hurting nearby infantry if hit.
It’s not pretty to see the aftermath of a K-5 detonation with infantry in close proximity. The only thing worse is seeing Drozd APS go off with infantry nearby (it fires a 100mm HE-F round at incoming threats)
Because they turn the tank round to withdraw so the Relikt offers protection and from drones chasing the tank
Yep happens so often, i’m all for gameplay and balance. But for an Aprils fools event I would love to see realistic Russian tanks.
Terrible mobility, stabilisation, weak rounds, poor accuracy and potato thermals.
Tbf I wouldn’t want to be stood by the side or front of a tank in a war anyway, imagine it’s being pelted with HE rounds and you are near it, or if it just fires its own main gun.
You ain’t gonna see it with stock HEAT surely BRs are gonna move to 13.0 at this rate xd
DW just shoot under it
Don’t shoot the ERA then…
because the reverse gear still isnt fixed
It’s to increase protection during a retreat, which many Russian tanks have been destroyed in such a way in a certain unnamed eastern european conflict

And from that source spawns this report about NERA effectiveness

I just wanna say again, the amount of effort in the war of words being had on the Update thread and on the bug reports with regards to L27A1 is fuckin mental
It’s giving me flashbacks to my history A level
The fact you guys do this for free is mighty impressive, I don’t put this much detail on my paperwork when I’m fault finding at work
Keep it up fellas, you’re fighting the good fight

I do feel like it is totally in vain though. Gaijin don’t deserve this amount of effort and I’m pretty sure Challenger 2 is in its current state with malicious intent. I feel if they wanted to model it better they would.

don’t even mention it
I just finished my History A-Level a week ago
Bloody hated it
Ooft, I did mine 10 years ago
I bet the questions havent even changed
I assume its still “heres two sources, argue for and against each and conclude which one is chatting shit”, or something like that anyway

if you did it in 2016 you’d be the last year of the previous Spec (came in 2015, for first exams 2017)
i did AQA
1 30 marker, which has 3 sources/extracts to analyse like “How useful are Extracts A, B & C to a Historian studying Domestic threats to Elizabeth I between the years 1568-1588” (iirc thats what was on this years Paper 1C)
3 25 markers, Though you only answer 2, and its just a generic question, like “To what extent was there a Social and culturual Golden age within Germany between 1924 and 1929” (iirc also a question on this years Paper 2O)
If it wasn’t clear, my school chose Tudor England 1485-1603 (Option 1C) and Weimar and Nazi Germany: Democracy to Dictatorship 1918-1945 (Option 2O)
Quite disliked it, not im my area of interest at all
Yeaaah that all looks somewhat familiar, even with it being so long ago
I can imagine Tudor England was abit of a chore to get through
Mine were something along the lines of “The rise of antisemtisim 1870-1939” - as you can imagine, a very intriguing subject (insert comment on current global affairs)
Second year was basically “The Cold War 1945-1991” which I loved, one hell of a subject, it really made me appreciate how amazing it was that we managed to avoid blowing the world up
And how the Chinese and Russians really, really didnt get along all that well
