thats right tovarish k5 has 1000mm rha equivalent. how dare these westerners think theyr tank is superior when russian tank is the only one with a jetisson turret to remove crew from tank.

Lmao they didnt like my comment either.

Poor kid don’t like the truth LOL

Came across this video from SY Simulations which shows how Relikt helps defeat APFSDS in 2 ways

  1. The top flyer plate can be seen disturbing the rod
  2. The bottom flyer plate can be seen moving and keeping up with the tip of the penetrating rod (plate feeding)

Therefore the effectiveness of Relikt greatly depends on the APFSDS approaching at

  • a very specific angle
  • a specific speed
  • and hitting roughly the center of an ERA tile

Any departure from those would reduce the effectiveness of any ERA that defeats APFSDS with these methods, for example a near 0 degree impact should negate this ERA almost completely. Let’s see this in game :

Wow! in game Relikt at 0 degree still offers 250mm of KE.
Very strange! Surely an unintentional oversight?

tl:dr the equivalent KE protection of flyer plate ERA should decrease depending on different situations (such as lower AoA ) but it doesn’t

gaijin didnt mode the rod cutting, they just add some KE for every ERA, but some ERA can do the action when 0°, too

Problem being only Russian and Chinese era have this effect. ROMOR B era is a good example as it’s shown to provide up to 450mm to 500mm of ce protection, however this is at an angle of 60 degrees. In game it only provides 300mm and 350mm (gaijin being gaijin and not giving the same era the same stats….). This is the minimal protection given to the era when hit flat on. It’s strange how gaijin take the angled performance of Russian era (granted it’s always gonna be angled on the front plate) where as for ours they just give us the most minimal effect possible.

Because of this we’re stuck with era that provides the exact same protection ranging from the 1970s all the way up to the early 2000….

It’s the double standards that piss me off that’s all, either model era so it gets worse at less of an angle or use the same method for all era and make it provide its best protection all round or vide versa. Don’t pick and chose.

Adding KE protection is their way to model the flyer plate/rod cutting/plate feeding
The problem is that it needs to lose effectiveness with lower AoA

Bro, ussr has second to worst win rate on top tier

Basically, guy used replays to gather this data and its pretty accurate

Its in russian, but you can turn auto-translate subtitles
There are also statistics on nation popularity closer to the end of the video

ok so… first of all we have to believe his claims of what he did, second, if what he says is true, he only recors stats of the last few days with no other explanation of how many.

THIRD and the more comical is that russians have worse tanks than italians…

dude…

İmagine having worse win rate then Israel, Italy and Great Britian despite having Better line-up.

This is just shows How bad Russian players actually are, and Us players are the worst.

And germany with it’s 68% winrate or whatever since the 2A7 release and spall liners on leos is pure coincidence right ?
I mean german mains always have been known for their impecable skill.

The 2a7 is one vehicle. You’re crazy if you don’t accept that Russia has a much better top tier lineup than Germany.

Russia having the second lowest winrate at top tier, despite having the best overall lineup, is pretty tragic.

The only thing in the russian lineup better than germany atm is it’s CAS.

You should never lose the whole game with the russian lineup, especially with you have usa&ussr on the same team. Losing the ground fight against leopards is what happens usually, but you have the most cancerous cas combination to win the final game. The average rumain ape doesn’t know what a capture zone is, to this day. They either rush and get gangbanged by leopards (on open maps) or the rare occasion in some urban map where you streamroll rush everything.

Other than the zone capturing issue, the majority of people who die the first time to an mbt and spawn a pansir that will contribute to nothing is insane. And the ka-50 people who spawn it and achieve absolutely nothing. MBT presence is low.

Germany also can’t do anything against cas

Ah Yes cause Flarakrad is better then Pantsir, Ka-52 is the worst top tier helicopter with Mi-28NM,T90M is just 9.7 material and T80’s are just bad right?

İf you’re gonna cry at least cry about bad vehicles.

Russian line-up is superior to Germany overall.
