The Abrams has a blowout door, so a detonation shouldn’t kill the crew anyways. But in game that isn’t modeled correctly… wonder why… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CP8JiqItigE
We can guarantee if this design was on a russian tank, they would model it.
It is correct but it has to be hit from the side in order to work.
The moment the round hits the shell and penetrates the combat compartment, it’s useless.
Okay I see it.
Thank you.
There are two explanations.
It barely misses the right black ammo, thus causes no damage.
It barely hits the right black ammo & the damage calculation figured it didn’t deal enough damage.
That’s my two cents.
If it’s the latter, the suggestion is to increase damage of the solid projectile against ammo.
If it’s the former, RIP.

WT have correctly working blow-out panels and has for over 3 years.
The weakness of blow-out panels is if a hole is created in the crew compartment, that explosion is still going into the crew compartment as well.
Abrams and other tanks have blowout panels. So if the ammo dets, the crew survives. This is not modeled in game properly. It has been known for YEARS, but it gets intentionally ignored.
I see your poiont and actually it might not be totally absurd. Needs testing. But I do remember a time where i shot an IS-6 straight in the ammo with a HEAT shell and it didn’t blow.
Anyway, if you’re correct, that means that the game is broken because it’s stupidly absurd. Also, if the game doesn’t consider it as “damaged enough” then it shouldn’t appear as broken because it’s terribly misleading.
If the Object 279 doesn’t belong in that spot for those reasons, then why is the SH-405 sitting at 8.0 vs tanks with stabilizers, laser range finders, etc etc? Object 279 shouldn’t be negated a spot simply because of mobility and darts. Other tanks have to suffer this and no one complains.
From what I experience with the Leclerc, it’s working correctly and I’ve never seen any complaint about those pannels not working. But I’ll check it out.
It’s sometimes hard to understand you as you go against proven things with absolute confidence. But when you start explaining it, it becomes easier so no beef don’t worry.
Yeah it is even worse at other tiers. The 15% detonation is rampant through most of Russia, while some other nations are as high as 100% in some tanks. German Leopard A6 is 15% though.
The problem is the American tanks have blowout doors. Which prevent ammo detonation from harming the crew. So it should be 0%, and a module. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CP8JiqItigE
