gaijin:
oh, a merkava without the turret but with the same weight?
Surely the armor is way worse and the mobility is nonexistent
Guys, you gotta understand that the Namer is 64 tons and the Merkava is 65, moreover common sense doesn’t exist in this game, let the Merkava’s turret weigh 1 ton (just the barrel weighs that but hey, not questioning) I’ve done my maths, if the turret of the Merkava is 1 ton and the weigh of the turret on other tanks is on average 25% of the entire tank, my super common sense mathematical mind tells me the tank weighs 4 tons, which would mean that the HP/T would be 375HP/T, so prepare to go mach jesus with this one. Apparently the armor on the Namer Tsrikhon is weighless too, as the turret doesn’t increase the weigh.
German L/44 weighs 3.5 tons alone lol
The IMI might weigh even more.
I read it did weighed more, but you know how Wikipedia works, some things are reliable and some ara blatant lies.
3.3 ton by wikipida, (probably not accurate)
and thats not even with the turret
Moreover, the mobility of the Namer is that of a truck, I once had to fight against a Leclerc and it was nightmarish, I like light tanks but damn, the Namer is difficult to play, and close quarters is suicidal unless you’re carrying Spikes on the Namer 30 (MK258s are nothing and you can’t ‘lead’ the spikes vertically on the Namer Tsrikhon)
I got penetrated a few times by 30mm APFSDS shells, right in this place where it should contain this huge armor part, which is completely missing in the game
The Namer size is HUGE it’s missing hundreds of millimeters of armor in the sides
(I would say 550mm-800mm)

I mean the logic of being hollow Is to make the effect of the ERA actually do something if you dont leave space for the Shell to deform It wont do much, and idk if there Is any armor behind the hollow wedges
There is very clearly armor behind the wedge shaped NERA/SLERA arrays.
Indeed.

That photo shows the welded steel structure behind the armour blocks, which are missing in this case.
This other photo shows the actual thickness of the composite blocks and the gap between the outer armour and the hull.
lmao
Damn the 50mm of “composite screens” in the game might actually be angled ERA blocks that provide 400-500mm CE protection IRL
I pray that gaijin will eventually give some love to Israel someday :( so much evidence and sources proving their models wrong and they continue to stay silent. yet everyone is pushing the ideology that it’s because of current real-world events that they don’t push anything for Israel because they are afraid of the community being mad. but how can that make sense considering what Russia is doing to Ukraine
its been 5 months? and the aps on the mk4m and the namer aps is still not fixed

I got ignored by Smin :(, but yeah, from the short time I’ve played Israel, it doesn’t seem to be the best nation to play. APS is bad, SPAA is nonexistent (for now, I hope), armor is debatable and that’s it.
