It was recently brought to my attention that that the tortoise’s armour is incorrectly represented in game as multiple sources online say that the armor on the tortoise is 7 inches thick (178mm) instead of Warthunders 6 inch (152mm). The sources I currently have are Wikipedia (Tortoise heavy assault tank - Wikipedia) and Tank Encyclopedia (A.39, Heavy Assault Tank, Tortoise - Tank Encyclopedia) which i know Gaijin wont acknowledge as well as the video from the official Bovington tank museum YouTube that came out around three weeks ago (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pViPfR8YEwk) the armour thickness is mentioned at around the 3 minute mark but I’m not sure if even that is even a good enough source for Gaijin and would like to know if anybody has access to a pdf of a user manual of factory manual I would be able to to read
In principle, a report has already been made on the tortoise’s armor.

good to know that this has already been reported and forwarded to the devs i can see it taking a wile to be implemented though due to how much the armour thickness varies in places. thank you for telling me it has already been reported
