I highly doubt an apfsds she’ll hit by a small rocket has retained enough of Their shape and trajectory to even do any relevant damage,
I wasn’t talking to you
i literally posted a footage from a older test.
Yeah a round moving not towards the target, if there’s footage where the round is going directly towards the APS I and not hit the target at all I would believe you.
With rods being as dense as they are, who know the physics of what will happen.
Not sure about that, they potencially can still retain some penetration, for the iron fist i dont really know as the test only shows interception, but on the ukranian zaslon it retain around 60mm of penetration, sure it is a different system so it is a bit unknown.
That does not look like a long rod. The angle is weird so I can’t tell. Do we know which round was used in testing? Also you can see what remains of the rod move in the same exact straight path after getting hit in slow mo with no effect on being able to yaw the rod. Yes KE is lost but it can still punch through weakspots like the sides. And yet again the rod is not going straight at the truck. You can tell because the doors next to the target are not present on the truck that had the APS.
Not afaik, maybe something can be found on wayback
You think they will be shooting a APFSDS agains a test vehicle that is most likely fitted not only with APS electronics, but also with measuring equipment? That would be a very bad decision if something goes wrong.

Yes I know, but that’e not my main point. It’s much easier to hit an APFSDS round from the side than an oncoming APFSDS round straight at ya. There’s a longer period of time where the APFSDS round is traveling past the APS and hitting it from the side if its a long rod like dm53 in game is 750mm compared to 23 mm if it was coming head on. Now will Gaijin care about any of this? No its too much physics for their decade old game engine to handle. They’re probably gonna have APS like iron fist and other take out APFSDS rounds from even ridiculously close ranges. This is not a good thing to have APS take out APFSDS rounds. Are you going to have fun when you shoot at a tank and it stops your APFSDS round, turn around and kill you when your tank doesn’t have APS?
I mean it is an mrap these chunks can probably pen it, looking at the video the it shows that it is not a complete destruction of the proyectile but there are still pretty large chunks of it, and on the diagram they keep showing it but destabilized
That’s just an exaggeration to show it “destabilizes it”. It still moves in a very flat angle after getting hit. But if their yellow dot was the target, looks like it can destabilize it by 1-3 degrees. And what remains of that rod if it can punch through will still create spall and do damage.
This just sounds like you are coping mate
Video proof of it intercepting APS and you still moan

It’s called critical thinking. If you just accept every source shown to you, you are one gullible person. And I’m advocating against APS intercepting APFSDS rounds in game for the sake of players. Trust me, it won’t be pretty.
You just seem to be upset about something in game and moaning and coping about it
There is plenty of people like you
Idk how many other APS can intercept darts, but BN has been in the game for around 4 years.
Yeah I’m talking about the future, new tanks joining with iron fist and the likes.
I tried looking for detection ranges, but sources about the radar does not give any values
Yeah me too, couldn’t find much.
Just to clarify this, it has to be IF Heavy, IF Light cant intercept APFSDS.
