So just now, my T-72 got penned through the side by a LAV, mind you, the LAV has Max 70mm of Pen, the T-72 side armor is raw 80mm, if we include the tracks, era etc. it´s above 100mm, enlighten me how this works

how can i add pictures?

I suppose you could also save the photo and upload it, I just find the copy and paste process simpler
the orange part is where he hit me tho, so basically shi…wait, cant say that or they get offended again, so basically stuff bounced off randomly again and hit me from wherever? cause neither the cam nor the replay showed him hitting me there
Replay and hit analysis are very inaccurate to what actually happened in game, I have had shots I thought should have killed someone show that I killed them in hit analysis, despite what happened during the match
Well that just sucks
Show shot replay or it didn’t happen and you just saw things wrong, he penned you in the 20mm lower side 99%
FR now? that aint what was shown to me, welp then i gotta apologize and keep hating on the 2S38
Welp, war thunder be like that sometimes, the more you know
well, thx for letting me know that then, at least i know it wasnt one stu…wait, no bad words or they cry again, ****** bug.
Np you aren’t the first and definitely not the last who gets weirded out by the games… “features”
That happens with fast firing autocannons, it may not show the round that killed you
Didnt know the Syrians had unobtainium core rounds on their 12.7s
LAV AD can go through the sides of russian MBTs in spots.
shred the hell out of them in the stormer AD all the time
yea no
yea that makes it even less plausible.
I mean
it can

at least on the lower side part
it even can in game if you line it up perfectly

sure a SLAP shot theoretically can go through the side of a nude T-72.
but SLAP is rare and only safe in .50 cal machine guns (ask Kentucky Ballistics about what happens when its used in a .50 cal rifle instead), and a nude T-72 is even rarer. the chances of this happening are basically zero
even standard AP can go through the lower side at close range if its not very angled
and the ERA never extends low enough to stop that
that wasnt the issue…
those were sketchy reloaded/fake rounds that were loaded way too hot
