Well depends, the 130mm just might not series developed enough.
Besides that UK might not want to be the first to jump into the water cause of logistics etc.
Going from rifle barred to 130mm doesnt do the logistixs any good.
Germany can allow themself the buffer with the 2a8.
Thats why we already have a 130mm tank ordered to be in development now
I’m just saying keeping up with 130/140mm logistics, maybe after it becomes properly mainstream… oh wait, humans would have gone extinct by then… how unfortunate.
It mean’s its just a “dummy” block for testing purposes, they put those on them so you don’t accidentally go to war with a bunch of fake armour blocks. Luckily for us in War Thunder it will probably provide 5mm KE regardless of being real or fake so it doesn’t matter we can use either.
The fact they have dummy blocks does make he think it may be ERA, as otherwise if its just NERA why not just use a real one, the main issue with ERA would be that it’s explosive.
So if someone drops one when they’re practising installing and uninstalling them, there’s no risk it’s going to compromise the armour.
There are drill/ballast versions of the old Dorchester NERA blocks for peacetime training as well. They had a triangle in the middle of them that carried the same warning that they were not armour.
“Heavy Armour Automotive Improvement Programme introduced a series of upgrades to the automotive system, including bringing Perkins CV12‑6A engine to common build standard. Options remain available should additional power be required in the future”
“Under HAAIP, engines rebuilt as 9A with electric cold start, common rail, turbocharger,
New cooling Fans & radiators, new Hydraulic Track Tensioners, 3rd Gen Hydrogas suspension, TN54 transmission new torque converter”
You mean the way Gaijin models it or the way it actually is?
Edit: I think this is a Russian propaganda account or a fool that fell for the stuff Gaijin has been passively saying through the game for years. Either or, this is wrong.
