Your post said filler, so I only checked the exact filler.
Explosive types can change effective-TNT because TNT is the unit of measurement in that case as well.
So i will start from the end u said there isnt a big diffrence between the mobility capabilies.
Thats simply isnt true idf do say m3 is slow compare to the m4
And u right the weight is cloudy info but thats when gaijin needs to estimates things based on the tank capabilities but when it comes to israel they estimate the worst and unrealistic thing
Like that we know m4 can stop kornets from the front
But gaijin refuse to acknowladge that or everything else about the merks armor
Ok i souldve said equivlant
And the sap is even more absord
Having more then 80k of tnt equivlants??
More then yamato and iowa he btw
Its turret armour is very powerful. Its hull is basically trash.
What?
Are we talking about the suyz?
Its hull s the best and its not even close
Ffs with this 405 error
Equivalent depends on explosive type, and shouldn’t be in an argument around masses.
Yea so russian explosive filler is so powerfull that a 406 sap is stronger then 460 he?
Be fr dude
And dont let me start on that magazin but it off topic so i would stop here
It’s not TNT, it’s A-IX-2.
Koln uses Hexal as another example.
However, this has nothing to do with Merkava’s armor.
Fixed it
what? Merkava suyz?? It turret literally Survied my Kh-29t an direct hit straight from the turret it survived but killed other two tanks right beside it.
Wa talked about the suyz not the merks but u right its off topic
The kh 38 is a bug that heppens once in a while
Same as leo surviving gbu to the roof
In general merks arent surviving kh38 and im saying it as a merk main
U can also test it now
It should be more mobile… But I’ve seen a lot of videos of meek…its alway slow motion
Then search more cuz i saw many vidoes of m4 being mobile(at least more then the m3)
I don’t know man… Looking at merkava moving is actually painful… a lot of sound but nothing much is happening.

Im trying to look at acceleration not top speed.
Couldn’t see much difference between mark 3 and 4
And the mark 4 is not very agile…
Are u fr?
Cant help but notice the merk is the only one in deep mud.
Which not only effect the acceleretion but the driver ptobably doesnt even try to be fast
Also in this conditions the driver probably doesnt even try to go fast
Doesnt look so slow even in such a climb and mud
There is this video but it doesnt rly shows the aceleretion
I cant find a merkava that accelerate from 0 to max on a flat road but i did find a video that the commander said that when they test the merkava it reached 80km but the idf lowerd the top speed cuz it isnt effective and probably makes problems to go so fast
Ok just found that idk where this guy got this video but u can look at the second tank when hes getting away its accelerate pretty fast
Not far from a leo if not on par
Looks like normal pace… I don’t get the speed vibe like in leo o Abrams…
How can you say it is on par with Leo if it is much heavier… ? If the merkava is the heaviest tank on the world it is only natural to be the slowest, if they have the same HP
The merkava engine is upgraded
It has more rpm or smt
And thats why i said “not far from the leo” “if not on par”
And its not as heavy as ppl say some places says its about 71/2 tons some 65 and some 80
Ig its rly depends on the version and how much the tank is loaded
But look at the merkava coming from the river
The m3 wouldnt make it so fast so there is clearly an upgrade
Glad to see moderators haven’t taken this thread down yet, could be a potential maybe? Idk maybe I’m just getting my hopes up

It isnt praising the glorious russia… they just havent seen it yet to take it down
But that’s actually because of weight distribution, because of the engine and armor in front, it is a bit heavier there which gives it better traction to pass obstacles. Not necessarily because of high hp/weight.
As for the weight my guess is that’s near the 80 tons… Namer is weighing 60 tons… if you add the turret, turret basket, gun armor that will weigh quit a bit
