The part that you are leaving out is that most of those tanks store their first-stage ammo in their turret bustle.
Outside of the Ariete, ZTZ and Merkava (which has ammo in an unlikely spot to be FTB’d), the tanks you listed are not going to be ammo racked by a LFP shot unless the player takes too much ammo.
The T-series are also much shorter, so yes, it is smaller. But it’s not a small target for a somewhat decent player.
But the 2A5/A6 got better mobility, gun handling and highest pen shell across the board
Abram still superior in term of gun handling and reload rate, higher pen dart is a big plus. The only thing the T series beat the abram is the armor. Mobility is debateable since T90M is one of the worst while 80BVM is one of the better while SEPv2 is pretty mid when it come to it mobility
These two are just sad , there no way to sugarcoat this so yeah , fair point
Same with Abram for the most part
They got better mobility and gun handling iirc.Beside that lose to T series in term of armor
Type 10/TKX are special case, their pro5 are almost as small as a T series. Their armor are one of the worst in the game if not the worst but it make up for in term of mobility and 4 second reload rate. So when it come to them I don’t think talking about armor is fair when their strong point is flanking
Funny enough about these thing is the best way to kill them is LFP , cause going anywhere else just gonna mess up your dart. They are basically T series but better in every single way
Overall good point but you should look into stuff from more direction, not just armor. That not to say they are the worst tank since Brit/Ita still exist. But this go on they will eventually be one of the worst if not the worst
It’s actually about the same size as the turret ring. Gaijin has this weird ricochet mechanic that shots will ricochet into the Abrams. If you hit the upper front plate, you will ricochet into the lower mantlet. If you hit the mantlet, you will ricochet into the upper front plate. You can play around with it in game if you think I’m making it up. Sadly this works with even 2s38s
Realistically this is the Abrams hit map with ricochets
You are talking to someone who hadn’t touched anything outside of USA tech, it is hard for them to understand how other nation’s mbts actually has attributes that make them overall worse than the Turret Ring™ hoo haas
