M1a2s at top tier

Shooting the lower part of the breach generates the most spall on every tank. It’s the only way to 1htk a hull down leopard 2 (That is if they havent hidden it as well)

I wouldn’t call threatening someone in dms specifically “ignoring them” but you do you pal

You do realize we have A2 in game, right?

It would mean we stop getting frontally murdered by AA guns.

The abrams hydraulic pump is in the engine bay, not in the center of the tank.

This is really exacerbated by click-bait/aims.

Because that’s how Gaijin handles reports regarding historical inaccuracies on modern vehicles.

The staff had explained it and even made a Dev Blog about it.

Damn, I missed a lot these hours I haven’t been home.

So basically the trolls and derailers who brigade every Abrams-related thread have already got to the last phase of their plan where they finally start tagging mods for them to lock it, hoping the flame wars they’ve sparked are enough to warrant it.

Of course, it’s their modus operandi; destroy Abrams threads so they are locked and therefore silenced.

They’ve been doing it for months and they will continue to do it as long as they can still participate in the Forums.

Telling you to leave the thread and stop helping to harass others and stonewall is not a threat. You wanna call me a hall monitor and then mock when I ignore you and say I can’t keep you out of my head rent free.

Your condescension and arrogance is insufferable. Goodbye.

Edit: And thanks for tagging the mods in that thread same as the other guy in here.

Really questionable behavior for a victim.

if only it wasnt against the forum rules to share dms in public I would have shown everyone this threat that you’re so eager to handwave as a simple verbal warning

you’re the one that doubled down on your lie

I only tagged the mods in the dms not in this thread

calling the responsible authorities on someone that has broken a rule is the proper victim behaviour yes
also didnt you say you’re going to ignore me? what happened to that?

Just ignore the guy, stop letting him derail the topic.

Roger dodger.

But we have made a consensus that we need a update on the turret ring soon, yes?

At minimum.

Absolutely. The turret ring never should’ve been in the sorry state it’s been in, to begin with.

I can clearly see that there is no measurement and that the picture does not show the actual thickness of the armour, only the shape of it.

There are many ways to digitally measure things, specially in terms of volumetric, where 3D models are available already.

Okay. So to use some reasons used earlier in the thread how can you prove that the image has not been edited before hand? What is the inaccuracy of this hypothetical digital measurement? Can you show me the software you are using? How can you say how thick the armour is when you cannot see the thickness of the actual plating, only the exterior shaping? Also the model in-game current matches the shaping of the picture posted.

Again being disingenuous. You don’t need funny numbers on screen to look and see that the piece of metal is thicker than 50mm. Are you okay? Matter of fact, I got you.

You can also look at it and see that it’s thicker than 50mm, the shape is not the only thing the images show.

You can also look at it and see that it’s thicker than 50mm

You can’t though. The only part of it you could say is thicker than 50mm is the very bottom plate. We cannot see the shaping of those plates so you can’t just throw out a blanket statement like that.

If you can’t tell that a piece of metal on your screen is more than 50mm wide, i genuinely do not know how you managed to turn on your pc.

You’re the one who called him a Russian fanboy, and told him to get lost. Hypocrite much? You say stuff like that, then act like you’re in the right? Plus, false flagging is against forum rules, and calling the mods on that is reasonable.

Also I am leaving this thread.
No one can deal with any opposing opinions. One side thinks that anyone who isn’t 100% for everything they say is a shill, while the other thinks that the Abrams is fine, when it isn’t.

You’re clearly not reading what I’m saying because you are selective reading. I said the only part that you could say based on that image is more than 50mm thick is the very bottom plate. We cannot see from that image what the internal shaping of that section is so we cannot say what the thickness is at various parts of the neck. You cannot just say the whole turret ring is X thickness because the bottom plate you can see is X thickness.

For example the interior shaping could be like so
example

Where the bottom plate is X thickness but the section between the visible bottom and the top is not X thickness on a horizontal plane.

I made a diagram with the full thing based on all of the available pics- when I get to the PC, I will share it here! It should give some insight on what it would look like
