It doesn’t have ERA, nor the additional UFP plate.
The T-80BV was purely an ERA modification that accompanied all 1985 upgrades, ranging from the T-72B, T-80U, T-72AV, and the T-80BV itself.
The fuck are you talking about? The '292 has the 50/50/50 hull of the T-80U… It has a basic '219R turret with the standard T-80U hull.
The T-80B had the 1100hp GTD-1000TF. The only tank to use the base model GTD-1000T is the base model T-80, while IRL the Obj. '292 and T-80U 1992+ used the GTD-1250.
It was supposed to upgrade to either the 1250G or 1500, though neither were ready during testing.
yeah idk who was the mastermind who tought a T80 tank with almost 700 mm of pen would be a good idea at 10.0, the thing has good armor mobility and gun superior to anyone at its BR while people say its bad cuz of bad handling or bad reload as if that stopped it from blasting everything at 10.0 like nothing
People often discuss the occurrences of this matter as if it’s something that happens only once or twice, but I’ve seen that it lives more than what it dies 9.3’s cant kill this thing cuz their shell goes right trough the lower hull without doing anything cuz of the low spalling. People claim that the turret can be penetrated, and while that is true, it’s a situational occurrence. I’ve experienced multiple instances where shots bounced off the turret, making it an unreliable shot. In all honesty, I believe this vehicle should not be rated at 10.0.
Gaijin devs summed up. We dont do vehicles that are prototypes, without proper documentation, unless its Russian. Than all of them are well documented and will be in game.
yeah but as i said before this dosent stop if from stomping everything in one shot, this is a decently armored vehicle with good mobility and an extremely good gun its unbalanced at the BR it is right now
this are all vehicles that have been documented and there is a lot of info about specially the PSO and AGS, there isnt even a single archive stating the penetration of the object 292 shell for my knowledge
No, it is not.
I havent tried it myself yet, but already saw plenty of them in battles at 11.7 (considering i heard many suggestions to raise it to 10.7, i think its valid) and they are just another soviet mbt, but with even longer window of opportunity after it fires. And yep, my Type 10 tanked shots from 292 (i havent been one-shotted once yet).
i really doubt this considering i have been 1 shot quite easily with higher tier vehicles such as the Leopard 2A7V wich btw can be pen’d in the turret by the object 292
The best counter imo to the 292 is the M1128 with M900, but most vehicles struggle to penetrate the 292 anywhere. The breach is very trolly for most of the sub 400mm apfsds rounds. The LFP is decent but angling or hull down makes it nonviable if the 292 player knows what he’s doing.
This thing is so spammed, I’ve been facing it EVERY SINGLE game with my 9.3 German line up and my amazing DM13.
Yes, I can pen it. LFP, flanks, but I almost never OS it and I always get OSed in return. From the side, the fuel tank eats the apsfds, from the front or the optic I kill the driver only. Sometimes when I get lucky I get 2 crew members.
And this is ofc in the situation where I can aim at these spots. When we are on Maginot Line and there is just the turret popping on the top of a hill what I am supposed to do ? “Return to hangar” ?
