At this point it is just plain malice. UK is one of the biggest supporter of Ukraine and historical enemy. Also UK is the least popular top tier country = no money flow. They are biased and pro putin, but they love money more and there’s no money from UK. No need to say more.
Should have at a minimum of 84mm KE.
But Gaijin also believes STANAG 5 rating is achieved with TES ERA, Backing Plate, Tracks and side hull armour instead of just the TES ERA Bricks, so…yeah
I wouldn’t agree with that, but I remember the Russian dev stream and they were laughing at the CR2 2F
Not to mention challenger tanks at this point have been bigged up culturally to russians to have the same reputation as tigers. They are obsessed.
Well. The inserts should have holes in them
as trunnion pins go from turret core, then through rotor and end in the inserts.
As for the wedge
we dont know how it is inside. We know its bottom is at least at part emplty, but how the top looks is unknown.
Well, if not us then whom?
and they say its calculated from the nose of the vehicle, not from the normal to the ERA
which is wrong as protection for ERA bricks are tested at 0 degrees where they are thinnest
So from the nose of the vehicle technically the protection would be more because its angled.
Yep, i explained that here, and they seem to at least looked at it once

You poor sweet child, haven’t you heard the rumors of T-series getting a buffed in the next update or sometime soon?
At this point just bug report the tank as a whole and get it removed for sh*ts and giggles. Funnier that way.
I mean given there’s a whole 14 of them to blow up I’d go with Jagdtigers but yes, same point.
When aren’t they laughing at challengers?
A tank that’s reputed to be one of the best protected, and most mobile offroad, is neither mobile nor well protected in this game. Go figure.
Yeah that’s why I’m responding to the person who wrote the turning buff the T-tanks are apparently getting, it’s all good IF they also fix the T-80 having an unreal mobility advantage they shouldn’t have.
Apparently, most of the late T-series tanks are also handily overperforming in the armor department, specifically I recall someone saying they were making a bug report stating that the T-80Us have 70-100 mm more effective thickness on the UFP than they should…but I don’t know if it’s real or not.
Gotta love Gaijin’s secret ground resistance values for each MBT when gives them their feel
At least the Challengers and Leclercs share something in common. Completely botched mobility.
hence why i’d like my CVR(T)s
so they can’t botch the mobility on them (like, genuinely, people would throw a fit)
I just want to race around without a care in the world.
Why the Fox is so fun, first British tank in the TT that doesn’t feel like an M103.
Because its low br, Britain dont get to have fun top tier
Tbh 10.3 lineup is peak UK. Chally 1 is okay, lynx is great, Stormer is a mixed bag, but overall good and unique SPAA. Haven’t played the Jaguar GR1A but you can’t go wrong with 2 LGBUs + aim9G. What I really want is the Stormer AD because sometimes I’d rather have Stingers and a gun rather than Starstreak
doesn’t surprise me at all… it makes me truly sad-
Imo, Britain have been like… cheapened out at most turns in the game. Rather than giving us AS-90 or Abbot, they gave us the M109. Both Abbot and AS-90 would have made more sense. Scimitar i’m surprised hasn’t already been added, seeming a the Falcon literally exists, and now they have the Fox too. take turret off fox, put onto falcon chassis. ta-da, scimitar. ((very simplified)) - it just feels like they just dont want to anymore.
