Another armor hole on the rear hull roof is on the CV90.

Still no fix to the current bugs that have been passed. Also looks like this armor hole is new as checking prior armor posts dont show it. So at the rate we are going the CV90 will have no armor in a few more updates.
Might want to make an amendment to the previous missing armor post just so this one doesn’t get the duplicate treatment and the roof then remains untouched.
Didn’t make the post, i also messaged WaretaGarasu so maybe tomorrow or later today he’ll message me back.
Is there any updates on the books and or discord ?
If not for nothing I would love to be a part of the effort to fix this and whatever vehicles of the CV90 family gaijin eventually gets wrong.
When I returned from vacation I noticed that the CV90 Mk IV stats card looks different than the vehicle.
From what I can see, it has new tracks and the paint color changed a bit. What other changes did the vehicle have?
No nothing since it came out. It weighs 37t while being made out of paper, so far not a single bug report has been fixed.
Pretty sure the track is still bugged on the CV9035’S and the MK.IV.
Pretty sure all the new armor holes are also still there cause playing an open top vehicle at 10.7 is very fun. Given a few more updates and the MK.IV will be the most tanky vehicle in warthunder since it wont have any armor to spall on
The vehicle pretty much screams last minute addition so any and chance that they adress stuff is very unlikely. As for the track changes, its probably part of it being rushed since it was a niche gimmick vehicle for one nation. I could bug report it but gaijin has enough bug reports to procrastinate fixing on the CV90’s to begin with.
to be honest, it meets all the requirements for that title
Should the CV 90 die when getting shot in the spikes or is that just because of the armour holes?
Idk it shouldn’t cause a crew knock out considering how far away the launcher is. But knowing gaijin they figured it doesnt have enough armor to stop snow from killing the crew.
Yeah, I’ve received crew knockout from apfsds hitting the launcher mechanism, (more precisely the roof plate) not even the munitions.
Only happened once but still, there is some strange bloody thing that’l can happen with this.
Figures
Yeah, its bullshit. Even if they were to blow up, they should not kill you as the munitions are outside on a fully enclosed vehicle.
(I know it’s a cliché but) It’s still a shame the same line of thinking does not apply to USSR vehicles (IT-1 / BMP-1), none of the outboard munitions on these vehicles kill you when shot (IT-1) just goes black and needs a repair. Not even a reload.
Crazy how its taken nealy 3 weeks to fix the armor holes that make this thing even more difficult to kill. Guess if it was premium they’d already have it fixed.
Guess in maybe a few months or a year we might finally see this thing with its correct armor values. Maybe
It should have its own thread already iirc. Regardless i don’t think it will matter considering the MK.IV also can mount the D model turret which would make the 9035 D model almost redundant.
The question is shouldn’t a potential swedish Mk.IIIC get the Akeron Missiles which a Mk.IV probably wouldn’t get since so far nobody ordered them with it?
We’ll have to see
