Agreed. It’s my understanding they had the HC version which was the first to use DU and the Aim which was an up-armored version without DU for export. How about Gaijin just give USA Leopards or BVM (since I’m sure the gov has procured them for testing). That way we can have a fair playing field.
M1A2 SEP is fine when it comes to being matched against the T-80BVM.
The Strv 122 and Leopard 2A7V are a step above the T-80BVM and M1A2 SEP though, and for that a M1A2 SEP v3 with M829A3 could be just fine.
Of course, that’s still not going to have spall liners as far as I’m aware, but for this model we can be certain that the frontal protection was increased and the reload rate buff to 5s is decent compensation for said lack of spall liners.
The SEP v3 in circa ≈2020 with the low profile CROWS also doesn’t have the useless add-ons sticking out that the M1A2 SEP v2 has.
didnt someone submit a freedom of information request about the DU being in the front of the hull as well? what ever happened to that? i cant find the thread
Sepv3 also gets APS as does sepv2 which should have been added.
I don’t think the army went through with it. I know they tested it but I don’t think it was accepted in the package.
ERRRRHN WRONG
Watch how it will not work in game because Gaijin will assume its just a mock-up.
Apparently Army just finished their tests for the APS on the v3
Where do you get the v3 is better then the v2?
No, you said that with the V2 the army didn’t install the APS, but they did. Also, restate what I say the V3 has a similar APS build to the V2.
What? I also went and posted the source your decided to pull the information from. So once again where does it state the v3 has a slightly improved APS?
I guess gaijin heard us complain to much of the hull armor of the Abram’s so they gave us a m60 hull. But tbh idk how to feel about the 120s, I played it in the dev server and died a lot to bots. I might suck but that thing is incredibly weak.
It’s the exact same system.
The V3 has different electronics, testing the APS has more so to do with ensuring it doesn’t interfere with or cause problems with the charging and power generation system.
The APS is the exact same.
Ok Damn i misread, sorry.
The infographics show just release an episode talking about tank armor it’s pretty helpful and understanding all of this and get some pretty cool insides.
Gaijin acknowledges that armor has been upgraded.
They also state they don’t know how or by what amount.
Yeah, I know but they expect us to provide them with exact schematics on the armor instead of them just buffing it to be balanced even if it is not 100% real-life equivalent.
I mean the video completely discredit itself in first few minutes. Come on it say that T-54s had composite armor, and even their WW2 part is very much questionable.
How could something like that be taken seriously, same applies to the Real Engineering video.
