I’ve never had any issues 1-tapping an Abrams through its LFP while in T 80 U

Thin armour can create spall ,It was most common in WW1

You have to consider the material, cartridge velocity and size.
Yes not necessarily the thickness.
You may have meant in the game which is fine,my mistake maybe.I just assume the game followed standard physics but maybe not.
Retro fitting old thinly armored AFVs for the third world with late spall liners is big business though.
Check the vid i just sent, there’s a specific spot in the LFP that doesn’t create spall. Most of my Abrams kills are prolly through the LFP hence why this specific bug has happened a couple of times.
I was probably just getting lucky with volumetric I guess/
Its a bug, and AFAIK it is acknowledged. Most of the shots to LFP will spall, this happens just a small amount of times.
I remember a while ago som1 posted a bug about a new light tank added that would create spall if you shot its left side plate, but not its right side plate.
There’s also Zenturion on yt that made a vid on it.
It’s just a bug, and it rarely happens in Ground RB, its gonna get fixed in no time, but the real issue is the turret ring thats been acknowledged 7 months ago but still no fix.
Afaik, the protection analysis (both the in game one and the one in the garage/hangar) only shows spall that hits either the crew or modules. Since the spall generated in the shot doesn’t hit any crew or modules, it looks like no spall was generated.
It’s either a bug or another intentional silent APFSDS nerf. Looks more like a bug tho
Yes you right, but in that case spalls doesn’t creates at all. It’s a bug.
As an acive abrams main, for us this is a kill shot be because if you flank us the engine deck gets in the way, also ive played 1000, plus battles in the abrams probably 300 plus scince the last update, ive never had this happen to me so I think it prob won’t happen in game.
That’s just that the game’s damage model is broken, and continually gives errors like that.
The damage model works worse and worse, but apparently the devs have decided not to fix it, eventually players get used to the errors and stop complaining.
From somebody that plays against abramses quite a lot this isn’t that much of an issue. This, as i’ve previously stated, happens once every 50 kills or even less, i had a clip of this happening in game but i apparently deleted it.
But i can confirm that it does happen in game too.

The spall is created, it just doesn’t hit anything important so it doesn’t show up on the protection analysis (hence appearing like no spall is generated)
This is wrong… Spall is shown even if it doesn’t hit any critical parts:

Is that with just the garage/hangar analysis though? I thought that at least the in-match one only showed when a module has been hit, the armor that the ZTZ99A hits on the opposite side of the VBC might be a module (I don’t remember, I haven’t looked at the xray of the VBC in a while).
