Great, not what most people wanted but its a start.
Now what about the mountains of accepted bug reports for all other nations? Like spall liners missing on chinese mbts for example.

The T-80BVM weighs 45.7 kg. Therefore, the BVM’s armor should have increased by only 5%. That’s all.
Well i mean thats not really a big problem anymore considering we have subtrees now. Also 12.0 might be underselling a bit, theyre not great but with the right fixes they can compete.
It is weak compared to other top tier rounds it flies the slowest and penetrates the lowest or joint lowest.
While it can get the job done it is nothing special at the highest BRs
Less than average Vietnamese ?
47 tonns.
Different ERA, quite angled armor plate and different size compared to Abrams.
I understand your concern for other issues, but speak about them in appropriate posts, we don’t need any more discussion of other tanks under posts not for them
I doubt fully fixed Challengers could compete with fully fixed Leopards and M1s.
Same goes for Arietes and probably some others as well.
They know, bud. They just posted a classified document on the original edition of the devblog and they now play dumb around it.
Even OP joked with a GIF. Only they know how gimped they’ve made several MBTs for years.

Exactly. Different way of protection. That’s his point. Different type of armor. Not every type of armor has the same weight as steel has.
It was just the turret tbf.
Maybe not but that’s why we have subtrees these days.
No, Nato engineers still live in the 1930s and are just using cast and welded steel plates.
Only superior russian engineers have figured out composites.

Wow thats crazy first source for NGAP armor it literally is a light weight armor designed for future atgm’s and kinetic problems. Good on gaijin.

Hey, we really appreciate you, Gaijin. You did some actual research. But, it’s not very cool to use the dev’s idea and understanding of engineering, which could be uninformed or could even be biased (nothing related to Russians when I say that). Just because you (Gaijin) think that if there is more armor, there has to be a significant weight increase. As I said, using uninformed and unreliable understandings of these topics raises a lot of skepticism. You could also throw away the idea of “highly realistic” modeling since you have chosen to take this angle on the issue. At this point, just artificially balance the game. We shouldn’t have to suffer because of Gaijin’s uninformed and ineffective approach to problems.

The upper glacis of the T-80BVM is at 60.5 degrees.
The Abrams lower glacis is at 53–55 degrees from vertical.
The difference is 5–7 degrees. That is not much.

Devs and bug report managers are not the same people
