I like it a lot!

Comparing to an earlier ground blog for the Hunter AFV

Quick glance bullet points (same on both)

Vehicle history is first on the hunter, and much later on the Abrams

Got a section on using in battle which feels largely similar to what we already see

and then you have a feature spotlight which isnt uncommon for anything specific that is being added via that addition

then a section on what premiums to get.

So genuinely, doesnt really feel all that different, just tweaked formatting

I will repost from the dev thread but this is important:
This is the FY2026 budget but literally pick anyone since the SEPv3 got procured:

https://www.asafm.army.mil/Budget-Materials/#fy-2026
“turret and hull armor upgrades”
That’s separate from the reactive armor and mine protection also mentioned, so it’s clearly referring to the base armor.

SEPv3 has NEA/NGAP and that armor program is turret front, turret crew sides, turret bustle sides, and hull front. The fact that SEPv3 has upgraded hull armor is undeniable. I yield gaijin can basically pick a number for that since any percentage increase is a guesstimate based on past statements and programs, but you’re already doing that for the turret so what gives?

Is US SEPv3 armor better than UK’s

It’s a good thing for the UK tech tree, but I have to admit I’m a little worried. I’m afraid that the UK tech tree, by receiving the Abrams, will use it as the perfect excuse to ignore all the reports on the Challenger 2 and 3, since with the Abrams, British players will have a solid vehicle to use.

The same thing would happen if they added the Leopard 2A7HEL for Israel, which would end up leaving all the Merkava 4s as secondary tanks riddled with uncorrected bugs, since players would focus on the tank that works well, the Leopard.

Yes because bugs are definitely only present on the Chally and no other vehicle you’re so smart ;)

Btw as clearly shown by the budget, it is not called the M1A2C. It is the M1A2 SEPv3. I can walk out and take a picture of the data plate right now to show that.
