The recent massive weight increase from 27.7 tonnes to 35 tonnes is unrealistic.
This is the “max combat loaded weight” which is UP TO 35 tonnes. However, this includes the RWS and the add on armor that are mentioned in the document as seen on the picture of the CV90120-T with the mentioned modifications. The model ingame has neither of those, therefore this weight increase in incorrect.

Up to and over 40 tons.*
~38 tons likely without crew, fuel, and ammo for the APS variant of the platform.
Edit:
The in-game variant is 35 tons when loaded with ammo, crew, fuel, and accessories.
900kg from ammo.
3 crew members so 400kg from them and their equipment.
940 liters of diesel is 808kg.
So 2108kg from that stuff.
So far 32.9 tons on a running empty weight now in-game, at least it should be.

a lot of times when people bug report all gaijin does is look at what they said, look that its in the source and make sure its a good source (step 2 and 3 optional), this is how we ended up with the R/F on the panther 2, and the many, many fake vehicles, armaments and all of the in between (step 2 and 3 optional)
isnt it actually like 38 tons in real life?

I’ve even amended my original post to include the weights of crew, fuel, and ammo.
Ok? Still doesnt make it the same tank.
No
Dude, have you read the report? You are getting info from a website about the cv90120 (2021 variant) which is upgraded with a new massive engine and is Way heavier. The report is about the ingame CV9120 which is based on the CV90120-T variant from 2006 with a weaker 800 hp engine and Way lower weight. Thats Where the 35 tonnes come from which is the MAX weight for the 2006 version and the standard weight was the weight before the nerf of 27.7 tonnes.

The edit is the CV90120-T.
With 900kg of ammo, 400kg of crew & their equipment, and 800kg of fuel.
There are also other things included in combat weight I’m forgetting.
this was from British Aerospace themselves, its not “some website”

Still the new version. Completely different tank from 2001-2006 version.
Confidently wrong. The one we have ingame is from 2001/2006 as confirmed by the devs. Therefor it has a 800 hp engine and Way lower weight than the one from the brochure you are highlighting. This has been confirmed by the devs. If you look in my bug report the real brochure for the tank we have ingame is there and it was the one that Gaijin used today to increase the weight.

The brochure is from BAE SYSTEMS website Where you Can download it. Still the version in the brochure is the modernized 1000 hp engine with more weight, not the one ingame.
