CR2 also have smaller one
and you can carry half charge in battle
Maybe it’s a HESH loadout?
ok
I think the HESH charge is about half the explosive mass as the APFSDS charge.
Better question is why are we not allowed to use one of the primary benefits of two stage ammunition - having almost all explosive rounds/charges in the hull and storing the inert APFSDS sabots in the turret. They give us an exaggerated reload speed anyway, so they might as well simulate us getting powder out of the hull each time.
You can look up a little, i posted a pic there of hesh charge. I promise you 2 wont fit. It is the relation of a square inscribed inside a circle or very close to it.
Also the apfsds at the back of the turret no longer blow up so dont spoil the fun. You can have 28 hesh and it wont blow up

the HESH charges are similar length, but much thinner. Modelling them as cut in half is just probably GJN being lazy and not wanting to model a different shape.
HESH to apfsds relation
That is why it looks thinner
? the HESH charges are not square blocks, they are more like flat rectangles.
Ok, im pretty sure i saw a pic where they were more square than anything, but i found this now
So in this it looks like some eclipse
I think that layout of the rods in the bag has a talk when it comes to charge shaped
No? The hesh charges are long and thin and 2 can fit in one charge bin.
Yea, i got it already
Seriously? Since when rounds from 12 to 17 are stored in the basket on the bottom of the turret, not at the back as it was before. Not only the vick has no bin, but this rack moved up in priority making it even easier to kill.

All your APFSDS are in the turret. Hesh can’t be stored in the turret and is stored in the i bins in the hull same goes for the charges.
Im affraid you are incorrect, give me a minute. The game does not care what you load where, but
These 5 APFSDS look kind of weird
Look, a wall of HESH
They did not went to the bin, did they?
Probably the worst Top tier mbt (ignoring the italian meme tank). Rifled gun for some reason, overweight, physically the largest amongst it’s kind, ammo stowage everywhere. With the lack of regenerative steering and it’s already bugged mobility stacking to make it pain in cqc. Never had trouble killing them, their armor is located in bad spots. Only works well against vikhr and other atgms

For the sake of using HESH, as in UK tanks are used for support role
Some of it straight up wrong
Well, it is wrong in many places
Not for me, the only thing that protects me from it is Iron Fist on the BN

You have to aim for a small spot to 1 shot them. But yes APS works very well (all of them)
