Regarding the Hull Armor of the M1A2 SEP V3

Plus it took me 10 minutes to find these pictures but I’m 90% sure if I post this I might get banned because this sight also has blown out Merkava panels on it too. Their is 100% a piece of metal behind that array with circles in it

yeah about the weight not being distributed on the front road wheels of the abrams

Well, the unclassified portion of armor is cutting a SEP3 [or SEP2] hull and seeing what’s inside, but that’s an expensive endeavor.

Also the goalposts never changed, Panther; I think you mean to address something else that’s happening.
Cause at the end of the day, the standards are the same. Which is why many of us have been demanding they be more liberal with estimations, even if it means Soviet-Russian classified armor also improves in-game.

9mm bulkheads are now official

There is no where in that link that says 9mm bulkheads are correct.
A secondary source was alone & denied, that’s all.
Need multiple secondary sources, and/or a primary source is all that was stated.

it was nerfed to 9.0mm becouse?

Dunno, maybe they did monolithic thickness for the entire structure rather than separated; anything we think of will be speculation…

Both these reports were accepted for the abrams bulk head needing to increase in thickness. So this really comes doen to either a designer who is spiteful… or idk.

okay has the m1a2 hull armour been handled god lawfully yes but again i cant restate how fun and slightly op the m1a1 is righnow especiuall since its round actually you know detonates autoloader ammo, i dont know if thats a bug with the a3 at the moment but is frkn hilarious.

give it try before it gets fixed knowing gaijin any nerf to nato vehicles happens in a microsecond(this is a joke)

Still no information about why the fuel bulkheads are 9mm?

I mean that depends how you define well. Their decision to add no IFF whatsoever is certainly a decision.

At this point nothing surprises me.

Dont you think its ridiculous that they make a change without a source and wont accept any sources to have the change reverted?

If we’re talking about realism so often, then where is the M829A4 round, and where is the 3.5-second reload on an expert crew?

Honestly a you issue lol, the SEP is way better anyways

its 2nd to the 2A7HU still

They accept sources, that bug report didn’t have sources, it had a singular secondary source, which is known not to be enough for any vehicle.

Multiple secondary sources are a minimum.

And yet they provided no source when reducing the bulkhead from 19mm to 9mm
