Explosive Reactive Armor

Why is it that only Russian ERA alters the trajectory of the round going through it?
French ERA doesn’t do it. US ERA doesn’t do it.
What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.

Edit, i was wrong.

To my knowledge; French and US vehicles doesn’t have ERA.

what is this? puma, sepv2 abrams same have…



Huh, well, i just learnt something new :) thx, will edit my first replay.

I thought they only had NERA versions.

The curious thing is that the Azur ERA has a protection of 20mm against KE and 450 against CE in the game, when for example, an older ERA such as the Brenus armor (in real life, not in this fantasy world that is War Thunder) has a protection of 100mm against KE and 700 against CE.In the game, the ERA Brenus has 5mm protection against KE and 400mm against CE,being a marginal improvement if we consider that they are years apart.

Fun fact, ukranian ERA does not alter the trajectory as much as russian. Only up to around 22 degrees of AoA. More than that and its useless while russian ERA is effective at even 45 and above.
