please link the bug report so i can add same issue pls, ty for this lmao.

Here: Community Bug Reporting System

Something wrong with the portal

but

Have we refenced the GAO report? for SE Block II armor improvements?

NSIAD-90-57 Abrams Tank: Block II Modifications Not Ready to Enter Production

The Block II tank modification package is designed to meet the future Soviet tank threat of the mid-1990s. Definition of this threat is based on the expected fielding of the Soviet tank known as the “FST2.”

As per NATO sources FTS 2 was expected to beat 700mm RHA @Flame2512 Did you have the cover page for this document?

120mm Gun performance

Can also see a reference to ?M1A1 Block 2? at 650mm, on the upper scale.

True that, having a 500mm+ hull would be cool.

Um guys i cant add anything else to the main bug report its over the main character limit

Drop it into the comments, and compress the files attached into a zip to get more than 10.

Okay, so its’ not only me? Since we can’t add anything?

i cant sign in for some reason, i would add i have same issue, but ur doing gods work lmao. i doubt they can put “not enough information” with everything you added
and if they do, idek what we can possibly do lmao

i am genuinely quitting i finished that thing at 3 am and have not slept since i am running on 3 hours of sleep

This is an issue I ran into too.

Are you able to add the SE Block 2 Armor improvements or do we need someone to comment it in?

damn, good luck lol

I don’t have a cover page for the gun / armor performance chart, or attribution for the Survivability Enhancements slide.

but like thats all classified, so how can the expect us to add it? or am i wrong?

I’m sorry, my brain isn’t braining. Does this mean you don’t have a document/site to reference for gaijin as primary/secondary source?

Oh…

Basically yes.
