I want to start a thread to house discussion, bug reports and information sharing about the Namers, beginning with the addressing of weight inconsistencies.
Currently in game, the Namer 30, Tsrikhon and Merkava Mk4 all weigh within 1 ton of eachother, despite the fact that the Namers use smaller, possibly lighter components (Merkava 2 transmission,.Merkava 3 Engine), and either the SAMSON 30mm RWS (Weighing 1500kg), or Rafael ALL-IN-ONE 30mm RWS (the latter of which also having mini-trophy and weighing between 1700 and 2000kg).
The following images show that the Merkava Mk4M weighs just 1 ton more than the Namer 30/Tsirkhon, despite the turret weighing significantly more than the 1.5-2 tons of the RWS mounted of the Namers; furthermore, the Namers utilise significantly less composite coverage and lack the 2 main ammo racks found in the Merkavas, surely this would lead to a massive 5-10 ton decrease in weight right???
If anyone could share any credible sources that may explain gaijin’s peculiar reasoning surrounding these tanks, or could a community manager chip in and help us grasp the differences here, then that would be much appreciated
