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.

thank you this is a great help
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
Is there any updates on this as the issue was accepted by devs over a year ago now
does anybody have any idea when the tortoise will receive its proper armour as it was accepted by the devs over a year ago now what is taking so long
Tortoise armour thicknesses incorrect // Gaijin.net // Issues
There are sadly even older accepted reports that have not been implemented yet.
