they should just buff HC and on hull armor as there is evidence to suggest there were changes to the arrays. And iirc further improvements in SEP or SEPv2
AIM hull should also get a buff because the aussie upgrade it and i think there are plethora of sources that also said it
Could get KE-W A2

Well we can’t just do that to change the standards, be it Gaijin’s performance changes all the time, we ourselves must try to keep it consistent.
IDK where these come from.
Not necessarily anything to do with KE though. After all, unless with direct papers on the values, the equivalence of Composite is 100% on Gaijin / their balance. VT5 sits with 300mm of Composite and can’t block 30mm rounds.

This happened before the basket came in.

It is not the same method. If the hit is on the neck of the turret from the front, the turret will be disabled. But from the side, if the neck or turret is not hit from the side, it will not be disabled, especially if the driver is the one take the hit

No it’s not, there was no DU hull armor added to it, it is simply not heavy enough. And if the Americans had mounted DU there, they would have told us just like they did with the turret armor.
The HC armor upgrade was a CE improvement bringing the front turret back up to 2x weight efficiency. The early HA armor had relatively bad CE protection for the weight but for A2 they asked the Brits to help them improve it, this improved Chobham was mounted in the new HC tanks and subsequently incorporated in later M1A1 improvement programs like AIM.

The HA isn’t present in the game but as a solution for DU to be present in a single tank in the US tech tree people suggested that HC would be a great option, i did not state that HC did get DU but it would be suitable for it to have it.
5 Tanks having DU is a more than enough evidence for Gaijoob to add it in a single tank, but that would make people to use the HC more often and it would be a better option than the currect TOP TIER US Ground Tanks that suck.
Other issue, Gaijin wants to still sell click bait, and if that is the case, US can receive another tank which is quite strong, helping the sale cause more people would be encouraged to start grinding US. Maybe they could add HA as event vehicle though, so might save it for later.

I’m totally in for any US tank to get added to help with the current issues that’s in the Abrams, but if the HA gets added or SEPV3 with zero improvements whatsoever just like what they did the SEPV2, an addition like this is not needed at all.
After finally taking some time to test it, the devs literally lied about the damage model of the turret baskets, they claim that the damage model only has the horizontal turret itself and the bottom of the basket, while in reality shooting the “wall” of the basket also damages the horizontal turret drive on the ABRAMS, on the leopard shooting at the basket does nothing. Easy to check with small caliber APFSDS
