It does but the autoloader magically absorbs all the spalling and no shell suffers any damage when it goes through, the damage modules for T series tanks are absolutely busted and nobody can deny that.
Oh! You missed the driver’s port by 2 pixels? Sorry, but there is 1000mm of protection just underneath it - Gaijin.
It’s ~550mm protection without ERA, and 680 - 750 with ERA.
Which also happens to many tanks, especially with AMX-40s, where you shoot the side with DM63, and no spalling. Or when it directly goes through te ammo, and only makes it red.
Which also happens on many tanks.
Here is a good example of what I was talking about, this happens to nearly every soviet T series tanks. Driver’s optics casually absorbing D53 with over 650mm of penetration, how would you go about explaining this? This one of many examples of the busted damage models for USSR.
It looks like it hit multipl overlapping plates. Just volumetric.
I have seen Panther side tanking 3BM60 with no damage, Leclerc getting 5 nonpens in the side of a Bradley, etc. Things like these happen.
It is not russian bias. The only bias here is confirmation bias on your side.
How do you explin this?!?!?!?! BRI’ISH BIAS!4!4!4!
Optics are notorious as a shell “eaters”, that’s happening on who knows how many tanks in the game so using that to prove bias is out of the question.
That’s not what I said but ok. Give it another read.
Get a live game not a server replay
Which will never be fixed because it benefits USSR
I recorded it, because it happened in a live game by dude.
Kiiling ?
What would you do if you get shot into the commander/gunner sight and basiclly blinded, the tanks also not destroyed, it got abbandoned, if an Abrams tamls equipments by tons of rounds from BMP-2, that’s also happened. Neither abbadoned the tanks (J out) or running blinded ?
Ah yes, protection analysis one of the most unreliable and broken features in the game.
Everyone knows protection analysis is useless when trying to find weak spots or judge a tanks armor. most of those green areas are in fact now pennable unless you’re very luck. and the abrams turret ring weak spot is WAY bigger than it shows it there.
Yeah right why remove the one RNG element that only makes USSR stronger right? So let’s just keep it.
It happens to every nations, and pretty much to every tank. This is not bias.
The only bias that is real, is your immense confirmation bias.
It benefits other nations as well, since as I said, optics eating shells is a thing on several dozen of tanks.
Yes since russia is producing such crap tanks that can be outclassed by 40 year old tech lol
Are you really wanting to argue semantics? The tank wasn’t just blinded. Maybe go watch the video and get a clue.
Oh let me pull out the Leopard cope card right away. T90M vs Bradley video that everyone is waxing their certain parts about in the west. Yes the optics got shot, no the tank didnt get destroyed but immobilised (You see, thats the Leopard cope card right there) and all of the crew got out safely. Btw dont forget about the proud Ukrainian moment when they talked about how a Leopard stopped a dart to the face and the crew is safe and all that but it had to get repaired because the electronics got busted. Or maybe let Leopard break its gun every time it takes a slight jump? About the tank, F the tank just get a new one as long as the crew is alive and getting all the optics shot from such close range isnt a hard job.
On the other hand fake stats apply to the west aswell, name me ONE reload guy that can handle a 35-40kg shell inside of the Abrams or Leopard while going full speed, turning, bumps etc. Why not nerf their reload on the move in the game? Autoloader on the T-XX is somewhat a drawback in some cases but its also a plus in other.
