the ammunition carouselle being under the turret crew still means an unlucky hit creates a replacement for sputnik even with better spare ammo stowage.

And all we have for Relikt is what NII Stali claim
no. You can deal with them easily. Ive been playing a lot of 11.7 with my challies recently and its not the T64s I’m having issues with, its just the most armoured leo 2s that are one single weakpoint that is not always the easiest to bonk.
find sources that prove X or Y needs a buff or nerf, this isn’t WOT where fake figures are be all end all.
Aye true, but it’s not as common as the T-72s were. Source: I knew lads over there. I was the lucky one: I got a rifle, half a mag, and a vest that I’m 90% sure was pot metal.

That’s just not the case, I can send images of T-90Ms instantly exploding the armour really isn’t that good and in game it is over performing by a massive metric.
Yes T-72 and T-80 guys were storing shells incorrectly previously but now they limit the amount of shells i
T-90M has ammo stored in the rear turret bustle and an “armoured carousel” but in reality an FPV shaped charge through the rear or turret ring was causing instant detonation.
can do the same for challenger, abrams and especially leopard. tanks get knocked out, such is war.
this doesn’t prove armour values at all

Leopards with massive spall liners are a pain too, but they don’t have insane side armour.
CR2 is a just a bad tank and the upgrade from the CR1 Mk3 to the base model CR2 is better thermals and a better round.
Totally disagree
Russian tanks are claiming this magical ERA can stop 1200mm Tandem Heat ATGMS…
and DM53…Which has been proven is a lie.
An M1/Leopard or CR2 dying to a Vikhrs or top attack munitions sure. In game they don’t survive that.
See the issue, NATO tanks are not pretending to be armoured with this magic ERA systems that in reality are not that effective.
the russian tanks have none at all. I’ve killed them with the stormer AD a lot its hilarious.
its really not.
the chobham armour is also significantly stronger but you don’t seem to know this.
the ERA negates the first shape charge, the extreme angle of the composite armour negates the second.
shrugs russian ERA is overperforming but its still not that deep.
I’ve had inconsistencies like this happen many times with various tanks. Leopards, Abrams, even Arietes. Apfsds can be inconsistent.
are you implying that gaijin has a prejudice against Russians?
You cant anymore Stormer has been massively nerfed
Earlier you said you need to be hull down and sniping and now it’s a good tank?
Armour that is on the turret face only as the rest of the tank is a massive weak spot.
Again why don’t other nations use this system? Maybe because NERA is more reliable combined with composites…Not in game though.
No NATO tank in game can eat an AGM-65 and survive due to it’s ERA
I’ve survived AGM-65 and KH-38MT countless times in my leopards and a few times in my leclercs. It’s not exclusive to Russian tanks.
I understand. Grew up around soldiers who were in Ireland and the gulf war and it… changes you. feeling like you didn’t do your duty will also just eat you away, trust me you’re best off not being in harms way and giving yourself time to get back into the swing of civvie street

I agree but with CR2 and L27A1 it is far more common, it feels like you are fighting these tanks with your hands tied behind your back.
No CR2 can kill a similar BR Russian tank from the front reliably unless you hit the perfect turret ring shot or the lower plate shot. Yet those Russian tanks can shoot at 90% of the CR2 and OHK it. Hell the 2S38 57mm one shots a CR2 from the front.
Then the KH-38 didn’t hit you directly
I am aware there is an element of Rng to the game.
I main the leclerc, so our rounds are almost similar (10mm more pen) and I don’t have issues killing Russian tanks from the front. Sometimes, very rarely I only kill the driver when shooting lfp but generally speaking if I fail to kill them it’s my fault. Sometimes it’s volumetric crap but that happens to other tanks too. I’ve gotten to briefly play the challengers and I’m gonna be honest, those things are miserable. Kudos!

I use a harrier T10 for CAS with AGM65D and it will delete abrams, Russian tanks, leclercs but Its about 50/50 on a leopard, until a 2s6 wipes me from existence. Ive learned how to toy with pantsirs but those 2s6 and strela players are something else
leo 2 is the bigger problem for top tier.

In the leopards it hit me into the turret wedges nearly every time.
In the leclerc it hit me in the top of the turret where the NERA is.
They hit me directly since there was a giant metal decal splattered on my tank.

The worst part about being over there? The fact I cannot find anything as good as the food I had over there. I don’t know how they made borsch at camp, or how they managed to make the stew so good, but nobody can ever make it right. It’s irritating, either there’s too much cabbage, or not the proper spices (I use the term lightly). Then again, a hungry stomach has different tastes than one that eats three meals a day. Doesn’t change that I miss the food.
