What’s the difference? Don’t they blow up the same?
Time Fuzes are set by the rangefinder or IRST as soon as the shell is fired
Variable Time Fuze (proxy) can change the fuze timer in-flight using a trigger, proximity fuze in this case

with IRST the fuze is set the same as AHEAD if you’ve used it before
One detonates at a set distance while the other detonates when the target is inside of the trigger radius
Also they only are effective against aircrafts if it has an IRST otherwise the only thing that youre hitting without it are hovering helicopters
Russian ERA overperformance is not a wild claim at all. Also he did prove it. You are just being a contrarian.

Surely it’s only Russian stuff that tanks absurd shots

Mantlet shots almost never work on Russia bro. I have clip after clip I can maybe attach when I get home from work: mantlet shot after mantlet shot on T series tanks and it just gets eaten like 75% of the time. If it does pen it just kills a single crew member and leaves the breech completely undamaged or maybe yellow. And what do you know, I lose a gunfight despite seeing first, shooting first, and aiming for supposed weak spot.

Ah i see now
He also claimed that Russia has an 70-80% WR in GRB multiple times in the past, but that the stats are diluded or even rigged,
If he can actually prove it I’d gladly accept Russian bias once I see reproducable and well documented evidence.

You make it sound like those russian tin cans are the greatest tank in war thunder 💀 queue up with me real quick I can prove russian tanks are the worst tanks at top tier.

You have never explained how Soviet ERA being ~25 - 35mm flat per plate, and ~100mm 60 degree angled per plate is over-performing, and by extension you never explained why NATO documents are wrong about Soviet ERA.
All your posts are at this stage is conjecture without evidence.

I think you just explained it yourself. That ~25 - 35mm flat per plate is stopping DM53

It’s literally the same result for both if you use them with IRST, which the T90M has.
A trigger or a set time fuze will literally destroy a hovering helicopter the same way while using IRST, for a MBT shooting the shell.
It will also destroy a low flying jet locked with IRST as well, unless it goes SO FAST the distance between the air zone where the APFSDS is supposed to be shot and the actual position of the jet when the APFSDS finaly arrives is so important that the fuze doesn’t make any damage to the jet (in other words : never).
Concerning the T-80UK and T-80U-E1, they don’t have IRST so destroying a low flying jet can be difficult, but they can still use their rangefinder to easily destroy a hovering helicopter. So yes, their proxy he is still useful to them.
And you somehow still tried to use this “it’s not really a proxy he” argument to discredit me, you dishonest squirrel.
I still haven’t seen any ERA stop DM53.
I’ve seen overlapping plates across multiple nations, I’ve seen roof armor across multiple nations.
All of these issues are not unique to any specific tech tree.

Still claiming the same at this very day btw.
Play 30 11.3 GRB games solely against Russia and show us the results, I’m curious
Spoiler
no I’m not, I already know Russia will get 70-90% winrate over the 30 games
about the final wins/losses results.
Everybody knows the results in advance, like me, because people play top tier GRB, and people know.
But one tech tree stands out

You’re a dishonest Russia-defender-at-all-costs fella.
I showed you 15 videos where russian ERAs/side armors/autoloaders ate whole DARTs while they weren’t supposed to
3 days ago, I shot a BVM side ERA at 90 degrees angle from 15 meters, and it literally ate my 576mm of pen french APFSDS. I posted about it. How is that “~25 - 35mm flat per plate, and ~100mm 60 degree angled per plate” ???
You’re being dishonest, you know those artificially buffed russian ERAs stop NATO DARTs while they simply shouldn’t.
I have done that plenty of time and every time it showed 50%.
So why should I bother when you dismiss everything that doesn’t fit your already decided upon narrative. Also you love to use Russian bias as an excuse for your personal skill issues.

ok? This isn’t an exceptionally unique feature, the merkava has this too.
It’s not proxy
It literally isn’t proxy, there is no proximity fuze.
China has IRST with proxy, Russia doesn’t

Again, volumetric bullshit is not unique to Russia
Enjoy seeing about 60 clips of the EXACT same thing you’re complaining about Russian tanks doing, happening with NATO tanks.
