T-72B hull composite is 215mm thick and sloped at 68 degrees
The hull array in total is 574mm LOS in total thickness
You need 530mm at 0 degrees with APFSDS to penetrate T-72B hull without Kontakt-5 ERA in WT as of right now for years now…
The thing is, when APFSDS defeats
530mm at 0 degrees
It penetrates
247mm at 68 degrees - 660mm LOS
At 68 degrees the APFSDS defeats 660mm LOS since it normalises vs sloped armour.
So essentially, currently in game the base hull of T-72B which is 574mm LOS of composite offers 660mm LOS of steel equivalent protection which is impossible and not even feasible.
An interesting idea, but no, I don’t belong to them, I see a mismatch of facts, this already speaks of deception. If you don’t care about it, it’s your right, as they say, it’s not for me to discuss it, everyone has their own head on their shoulders)
BTW, expert crews likely reduce chance of ammo detonation by a lot for all tanks.
Also dude calling me a troll for criticizing Soviet vehicles… lol
Update: Starting to play T-80 again to see how many people aim for ammo.
I say that cause only one person aimed for ammo so far & of course they killed me cause they aimed for my ammo.
Other people aimed for turret, UFP, etc, and I’m showcasing my entire tank to players.
No hill peaking, no meta Gran Turismo 5 racing lines using tanks. Intentionally reckless, always showing the whole tank, always showing side armor of some kind.
But we don’t even know for sure if that round penetrated and is what killed it. We just have a couple photos showing that hit on the front and nothing else to go off of. It could have been hit and killed by arty (as many have this war), by a drone (as many have in this war), or from an ATGM anywhere else. While it is obvious it was hit by an APFSDS round, we don’t know if that is what penetrated and killed the tank or not.
