Where is their source for saying all the extra weight is in the turret?
I dont think theres any source they can bring up that can deny all the sources we have for otherwise

Looks like Gaijins devblog next week will be about how the 4.5 tons are all in the 150mm panels on the turret cheeks

Theyre gonna dig their own grave making this issue known to the wider playerbase
and why did they ignore all this well founded calculations based on sources just to state “All the extra weight went into the turret.” without any proof or elaboration, this isnt professional at all

This issue isn’t just the Abrams armor and weight values not adding up, its what they are coming alongside of. Buffing Russian ERA to a point it effectively negates the improvements begs to ask the question of why add them? Well we know why, infinite grind must be infinite, but why as a players should I bother to research it? Why waste the time? If its no different than the standard M1A2, then its a waste of effort and premium time. I’ll just keep playing something else.

It is not so much that it isn’t a real word so much that it is a self defeating word following linguistical conventions. However, it has persisted in use adequately that it now (whether I like it or not) has a use case in that sense.
A3 doesn’t offer any bonus against Relikt, that would be A4 i think.
Nah look at the video I tagged, and the other one you had been tagged, the one the other guy linked was for the A3 round specifically, the one I linked is from last year or a little older just trying to clear up some things on APFSDS.
Which BTW I used to think the same that weight as well effected spalling, as it should.
I know, colloquially it’s been used that long it’s been made into a word, it’s been in my lexicon since I was a child as well.
However I do want to keep this on the abrams and seeing they just bounced what I am assuming is another abrams report saying all the weight went into the turret, i’m gonna assume that they either are about to bounce the big one or have absolutely zero idea what’s being done by devs and such.
which I really, really hope the V3 gets some form of armour buff, you can’t tell they can’t guess it.

I’m going to hope for the best for the F-14D and the Abrams. As well as QoL improvements and bug fixes.

Hey Gaijin, now that the Australian M1A1 AIM has been moved to the British tree can we rebrand the one in the US tree to a USMC one? Us Australians don’t really care about the one in the US tree anymore, considering all of our other vehicles are in the British tree.
Just leaving it there only adds to confusion for new players wanting to grind it and it takes months to grind a Squadron vehicle. How many tickets do you already get regarding the British Grant that’s in the US tree? Now imagine that again, but after people spent months on a grind.
Just keep the US Squadron vehicle but actually make it a US version.

Would be a buff for the US one since that would mean it gets KE-W exchanged for M829A1 or even M829A2.

I mean, that’s fine. Seeing as it’d be a different tank.

M1 with good thermals and M829A2 should immediately go up to 12.3 at the very least.

Oh I agree it should go to 12.3 with M829A2, but Gaijin’s BR management has been absolutely wild when it comes to the Abrams family.

Yeah. Top tier needs 1.0 BR decomp. Though I know that big a jump is probably not gonna happen.
I only main US at top tier (working on UK), but I see something like this:
M1IP 11.3 until there’s other line up options, but eventually 11.7
M1A1 to 12.0
HC, Click Bait, Kait (y’all gooners need to quit and see what that stuff is doing to your brain) to 12.3. AIM too maybe? AIM probably more so due to thermals.
M1A2 12.3-12.7
Sep 1 13.0, sep 2 to 13.3 and trophy/sep 3 to 13.7.
All of this though only if br goes up a full 1.0 and they fix missile defenses for an appropriate BR increase sinceair based threats will be the biggest issue and i dont think players should be forced to grind an entire air tree to get the AA coverage needed.

It’s crazy how 2A5 is sitting at 12.3 for ages now, while M1s get to chill at 12.0 while being equals.
