Namer Tsrikhon APS - useless?

The Namer Tsrikhon has the Trophy APS. Is the APS even useful? I dont have it in-game yet but as far as I know IRL the APS destroys the ATGM before it hits the vehicle and since the game is realistic, I assume that still a smaller part of the ATGM charge will hit and penetrate much less than what it should.

Can the 50mm side armor of the Namer Tsrikhon even survive the ATGM after the APS intercepts it?

From my knowledge using the Merkava Mk.4M, the tandem is also destroyed by trophy therefor the ATGM will probably not deal damage to the Namer, however I have yet to obtain it so I cannot verify this.

no residual penetration

Gaijin should make the reload system work for spike launcher.

Like russian Shturm-s and Krizanthema-S.

When it reloads the launcher pulls in . And when ready pops up again . Would love to see that.

APS on Namer and Merkava4M is great. Saved me a couple of times. Is very effective against KA50 missiles, as long as don’t get hit be the 4th one ;-)

It does not help against all threats, thats clear.

I second this statement. I find it quite effective.

this is how trophy aps works
system launches itself and reload it and max amount is 3 for merkava mk4
also trophy aps on Tsrikhon is blue but blue trophy is a fake version for the training and if it worked but still cant reload bc of its no space in turret
