2A7V has it already, and it sometimes stops even full shells now!

you are late to the party, there are at least 2 i have seen.
I searched on the community bug report website and didn’t see anything
Hmm, let me check
Well, i also cant find them. Then they probably got deleted or they are lost in the oh so great search function.
The search function sucks ass so probably

They never should have added the 3TD, if they want it to be realistic they should just get rid of the entire turrets armour

At this point just remove the challenger 3 from the game, basically nothing is confirmed yet as its still in testing

It’d still be made up of stacked steel or armour plates to simulate the additional weight on the cheeks anyway
At this point we should see how many features we can get removed from the 3TD by using the double standard Gaijin have set.
Time to bug report that it has no composite armour.

I’ve already removed it from the lineup and added the base challenger 2 instead, less chance of getting ammo racked and a spall liner. Yeh the round isn’t as good but who gives a **** when you’ve got the same mobility, better survivability and you’ve gotta aim for weak points still anyway.

The Challenger 3 TD is worse than the 11.3 Challenger in my opinion now, its genuinely a useless top tier
The Black Knight and 2E are infintely better than the 3TD
The 3TD is now slower, worse survivability (ammo in turret without blowout panels), longer reload, worse turret armour etc…
Especially considering the normal Chally 2’s got their ammunition moved to a better location, there is literally no reason to play the 3TD now

Exactly, why bother? Nerf’d based on the production vehicle… But no production vehicle blow out panels.

why… why would you beat a dead horse. 
I know you want to have an accurate game, but your stealing from a player base that has nothing to begin with. Its like beating up a homeless man and pulling the metaphorical rug under him. All because he happens to be in the same area as you.

Gaijin likes to selectively chose sources to make Britain suffer the most :)
The lack of blowout panels wouldn’t be an issue if it had DM63/DM63A1 (as they don’t explode when hit), it never fired DM53 in real life.
Let’s not forget that the damage and visual model don’t even fit, meaning the tank’s turret face is noticeably less angled than it should be…
This part too, the plates aren’t accurate to the visual model, they’re at weird angles and phase through eachother too. It isn’t even symetrical to the other side, so much for a “rework”
Ain’t worth playing imo. Waste of development time and money considering the end result is a vehicle that’s now worse than those it was supposed to replace, for most people it’ll just end up being a dead tech tree vehicle to add to the collection.
I believe it has the base ch2 pre-rework damage model for some god only knows reason.
The only reason it exists is they wanted to sell the OES but couldn’t do that due to “no top tier premiums”, so they just put this thing in.
That’s it. That’s the entire reason it exists.
