Ballistic V50 of 7017 (the actual material CVRT was made from)
CVRT was rated against 14.5 frontally from 200 meters meaning it had much more armour than seen in game.
Sides of CVRT where rated for 7.62 AP from all sides at any range.

They even got the engine wrong. The figures they have is for the first 6bt 5.9 liter Cummins engine fitted during the LEP.

So it’ll be at least two major updates to give it the armour found in the manuals lol.

did you show full thickness graphs in a bug report?

Nah unfortunately I’ve not seen any graphs for that.
What we do have is a side profile of the frontal armour in a gearbox repair manual
As well as a MOD report stating that they should be able to stop 14.5mm AP at a range of 200 meters.

if we scrape together £15000 we can just buy one and cut it up to see lmao

Lmao could do or just measure one if anyone would be nice enough to let us get up close.
A lot of the armour slabs are overlaid lap joints so you can just measure from the front of the plate to the center of the weld.

What armour plate are you looking for?
pretty much all of it on the hull seems off
I know there is not real exact measurements to go off, but in this video they show the engine bay of a CVR(T) Sabre, where it is possible to see the thickness of some of the armor plates of the hull.

Ive spent like £100 on books from Alvis on CVRT platforms to get this thing improved

ill put a short list of things off the top of my head I need to make a report on.
Braking force on CVRT platforms is inconsistent and too strong according to the brochure for the alvis scorpion (all CVRTs in game use the same brakes on the TN15 transmission)
All CVRT suspensions have too much travel, it should only be 8 inches of travel but is as extreme as 15 inches on striker and scimitar (source is scimitar & scorpion brochures). there is a similar issue on fox which should only get 6 inches of travel but seems to get about 10 inches on the front and none at all on the rear
Strikers gunner sight should be able to switch between 1x and 10x magnification (Alvis CVRT overview brochure)
Scimitars centre of mass appears to be too far forward making handling extremely poor, (this is an educated guess based off of the weight of the TN15 transmission and J60 engine versus the 2+ ton weight of the turret) COM should be just behind middle road wheel but its currently in front
there will likely be more once another book from Alvis arrives

The strikers sight is more complex than a simple 1-10x
The thermal also has different magnification than the day sight.
2x- 10x by day and 2x - 6x by thermals.
CVRT suspension is 8in in bump and 4in in rebound

Are you looking by any chance to give away your rig to a poor, helpless soul like myself?
