How to Defeat Black Knight APS with top-tier APFSDS?

Lets switch footing for a moment

Gaijin has been notorious for questioning sources for British vehicles, especially when it comes to buffs and have denied many based upon technicalities.

If there was even the slightest doubt to whether or not it could be done, Gaijin wouldnt have made it possible to intercept APFSDS with the APS.

Theyve done it plenty of times elsewhere, despite Primary sources stating otherwise.

And quite frankly. the only reason the BN isnt 11.7 is because of that APS. If it could only intercept AGMs, Im hardpressed to think of a reason for it to not be 11.7/12.0. Even with it intercepting darts, im still struggling to justify it given most maps are too small for it to be effective

Hi guys, if there is data that shows it can defeat top-tier APFSDS then it’s not a question of if it can/should, but HOW we can get around this APS. Since if it can defeat APFSDS then essentially defeats every projectile in the game.

Do we shoot MG’s at it to set it off prematurely? Would that work?

Thanks.

Is the system different? or it is that they just dont guarantee that residues wont pen it

  1. get closer
  2. keep firing until all 4 APS rounds have been expended.

I don’t have an issue with Black Knight. Frankly I don’t own the tank so I didn’t even know it can’t intercept AGMs. Yes you are right Britain hasn’t gained buffs for many of its MBTs it deserves. I was just using the Black Knight as a jumping pad on the discussion of APS in the future of GRB since lazy Gaijin will literally copy paste the code to all the other nations. It will be an issue when every MBT is intercepting APFSDS rounds long range and maybe even closer knowing how awful the spaghetti code is.

You can destroy the APS, you can consume all 4 charges at best, 2 if the turret is sideways, or get closer.

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.

New slop thread just dropped

No

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?
