The glacis plate is not penetrable.
Please use the correct camera angle.

Great take, let me file it
Ok done… now…
As much as I want believe that, I unforunately can say that the upper Glacis can still be penetrated by either of these 3 rounds. (And yes i Fully zoomed out it shows at 80° at 0° Angle)
1: 3BM60 (BVM)
2: OFL 120 F1 (Leclerc)
3: L27A1 (Black Night)
Then you didn’t read the chart which I provided you with properly. Please read it again.
You still have the camera level with the gun and that’s wrong. Alternatively, just disable the ‘‘Consider camera vertical angle’’ option on the bottom left.
The constructional angle of that portion of armour is 82°, 3BM-60 has a 100% chance of ricochet at 81° and higher.

No proof or mention it has upgraded armor pver the 2a7V.
DM63/ is equal/less to DM53.
DM73 is minimal increase.
DM83 is not out of development.
“Abramses” seems like something gollum would say ngl
do you have a golden ring you call “my precious” perchance?
simple plural form for “Abrams” tho.
No, but i have a car i call “my precious” umu
Just because English is weird, plural for Abrams is still just “Abrams”
why? Bc English needs to give anyone who reads their rules a fatal headache :)

Why, i read it earlier that its Abramsses xD
Amen
Also about protection and survivability:
i never, EVER got oneshotted on Leopard. Thus the reasoning. You see how several first shots do nothing to crew compartment? And there is nothing harded for enemy to kill than Leopard. T-90 in the same situations would be dead second shot.

Surviving a penetration isn’t the same as being combat effective. Even if the 2A7V doesn’t get one-shot, turret basket damage often cripples the tank by disabling turret traverse, gun handling or crew effectiveness. In practice, that leaves the vehicle unable to fight and usually results in a follow-up kill within seconds. Calling that ‘better survivability’ is misleading because the tank is effectively out of the battle even if it’s technically still alive.
The Leopard 2A7V also needs its D-Tech armor package to be modeled more accurately. At the moment, its protection does not reflect the real vehicle. If Gaijin wants to keep the game as realistic as possible, the D-Tech armor should receive the appropriate protection improvements based on available evidence.
Thats what I also notice ingame. Its armor is not suffucient and the spall liner isn’t what it was on release. No defense vs missiles. Slow. Restricted turret traverse. Basket mechanic. Its just not a good tank.
Especially embarassing that the UFP is so easy to pen. Still.
Are you really trying to argue over if the best tanks in game is bad?
100% while the Type 90 and especially Type 10 are my two favorite tanks in WT the Type 10 is heavily butchered in so many ways and ive given up on trying to get it fixed since gaijin is so horrible to work with
Well i dare you to watch the clips in a message before that. There are numerous shots that go undamaged at all, even with turret basket present. And even basket being hit not always the death sentence.
And this are three matches in a row that i played just because this topic made me feel like i have outdated info. Spoiler alert: it isnt outdated.
Having it modelled “properly” would turn it even more OP it is now, and that brings much balance concerns. And that doesn’t mean devs would make it as protected as you wish anyway.
be because is most hyped mbt much europen country want this…
You’re using gameplay survivability as evidence that the armor is correct, but those are not the same thing.
My concern is the armor model itself. If the Leopard 2A7V’s D-Tech package provides greater protection on the real vehicle than it currently does in-game, then the armor should be adjusted accordingly.
Whether the vehicle is already strong or weak in gameplay doesn’t determine whether its armor is represented accurately.

Every English “rule” needs the disclaimer: “Except when it doesn’t.” at the end

No, im using gameplay survivability as evidence of the tank being MORE THAN FINE as is.
Must be first and only concern
We don’t have D tech. Only a butchered C tech
