The system is different, but i can not tell you exactly why it cant, as they do not specify it, i suspect it is either slower to react, or uses lighter payload interceptors that are not effective against them.

I’m ok with APS like Iron fist intercepting APFSDS rounds in game IF Gaijin models weakened KE rods. APS shouldn’t be a force field around the tank like how it is with top tier Helis. Also what happens to nations that don’t have hard kill APS like iron fist?
They do

This is not at big as you make it out to be
Black Knight’s APS deletes the APFSDS round completely.

The next thing for top tier ground is APS. Leopard 2a8 with trophy, Abrams with iron fist, T15 with Afghanit. Yes it will be the next step.
You are complain about APFSDS intercept which isn’t a big deal
Abrams is not using iron fist, it is using trophy
It is weakening rounds, or at least it did at some point.
Idk now, but I doubt they changed it
I know, i was talking about the specefic abrams that tried an iron fist
I don’t get a hit notification, just that round was intercepted.
I have not seen Abrams with If, can you send a picture?
Oh shoot my bad I confused the bradley and abrams. You’re right, the abrams used trophy but bradley did have an iron fist.
But it’s the same as how ERA is modeled, it shouldn’t delete the round but it does.
If you want a weakened projectile modeled it should also be there for ERA
Bradley uses If Light

Yes, I was considering writing a thread on this. ERA should weaken APFSDS rounds. Its a tricky subject I need to get more sources on.
They are dense, but brittle, they will likely break into a couple of pieces and be thrown out of alignment. Modern APFSDS don’t bend, it snaps. This is great for penetration as it uses adiabatic sheer as a form of self sharpening once it hits the armor.
Do we know when iron fist intercepts the rod would the front part shatter but the rest can still hit and sharpen itself as it goes through the armor? That’s what I assumed from the footage, looks like the bottom half is still going straight.
