Russian Bias in 2026?

The plate you’re showing there is the blast-door, it’s not hidden, and it generates spall like an armored plate is supposed to.

90105s turret model simply wasn’t updated yet to include it.

If you paid attention though, the reddit post states the hidden plates on T-series don’t spall, that’s is a fundamental difference between your goalposting, and what was shown.

iirc the 45mm cradle does but I am not sure, but yes, anything around the autoloader except h-drive doesnt.

Edit: Yea, looks like it should create spall.

Oh my god, wow, who could have possibly expected there being a (almost) solid-face plating?!

grafik

Literally impossible to know!!

But there is no difference right?

Fun-fact, Oplot has the same gap there but doesnt have the 45mm plate (cradle) in the damage model.

Oof every single time I see the Oplot mentioned I get less and less motivated to unlock it lol.
It’s got a poor round, poor armour, poor excuse of a model.

Just a shame really.

It’s pretty sad that it’s not even close to a BVM in capabilities man, like it’s got great mobility sure, but it’s loud as hell, horrible round for the BR, 12.3 is it not?
Technically it’s not “top tier” as it’s not 12.7 but it has the single worst round found above 11.7 lol.

the fact that the M1A1 has a better round and is 2 BR steps lower is ridiculous.
Hell L27A1 is better than the Oplot round.

T-80U-E1 has 3bm46 on 12.0

Oplot has best round with 6.0 sec reload

Holy Molly….

  • 1 Oplot is 12.3 not 12.0
  • 2 it has worse armour than the T80U-E1
  • 3 the 3BM46 is not a bad round at all and is marginally worse than the BTA4 lol.
  • 4 it has worse forward mobility than the T80U as well.
  • 5 worse optics than the T80U.
  • 6 worse turret traverse as well.

Considering that the Oplot is an end of line MBT which is supposed to be a top tier contender. it’s a pathetic round to give it.

OR are you gonna tell me that the 3BM46 round is lacking massively here? T80U-E1 arguably is better than the oplot.

EDIT: Lastly there isn’t really a 12.3 lineup for japan either, so you are pretty much exclusively stuck at 12.7 with the tank.
For china it does have some vehicles to use alongside it at 12.3 but they are objectively better so it’s pointless to waste teh squadron points on the T84

Delibaretly ignores Leopard2A4M/5/PL.

Or the fact there are 11.7s slinging M82A1 which has 600 pen ?

Dudes just being obtuse, I really like the T84 IRL and think it’s quite a piece of kit, yet in game it’s absolutely pathetic for what it is.

OPLOT is way worse than T-80U-E1 in practice.

The only thing is good at its reverse speed and having access to CITV, thats all.

You literally say “above 11.7”

I didn’t even include Abrams that sits at 11.7-12.3 due to reload time he mentioned.

If we put them into competition, situation only becomes worse for OPLOT.

I mean t-80/64 round

Oplot’s round is better in point blank range while differences become much more narrow with every single distance, not to mention OPLOT pays heavy price to get access to that round compare to T-80U-E1.

The 3BM46 is as much worse than the BTA4 as the BTA is worse than the L27A1 or the OFL 120F1.

You said above that the difference between the BTA4 and the L27A1 is noticeable to you.

So this one is too.

Same

Just open WT wiki…

Same, but oplot has good commander sight (useless for me)

That’s not true. The turret is better protected, and protection against HEAT and tandem projectiles is also better.

There’s currently a bug where the frontal ERA’s anti-tandem properties don’t work, but it worked correctly previously and will be fixed in the future.

But overall, I’d say they’re more or less equal, with a slight advantage in favor of the Oplot against HEAT projectiles.

It’s still not been worht it for me to get it for 1 Japan cause they ahve such a small top tier, and 2 for China at 12.3 I just use the VT4 , WZ1001 and ZTZ96B over it.
I mean I likely will get it for china just to stop using 11.0s at those Brs but I really don’t see the big jump.
Especially seeing as said 11.0s have access to better armour, rounds, proxy, CITV , gen 2 thermals etc etc.

Apologies forgot the T80U- E1 was 12.0.

You mean carousel auto loaders then don’t you.

Sorry but a CITV is not useless lol-

The literal protection of the oplot has been proven in reports to be substantially worse than it is IRL.
Which also shows it under performing compared to the Soviet counterparts.

You can pretty much fire clean through an Oplot with any top tier round mate.
There’s a reason why there are so few of them on the battlefield.

Okay, but what you say is merely your opinion on the matter.
The oplot is 1 a higher Br than the T80U E1 and 2 lacking in more areas than the 80U E1.
You can with M829A2 or DM53. go clean through the UFP last I checked on the T84 as well.

EDIT : just to show this, the T80UE1 being a premiun which is spammed constantly by scrubs, is keeping up with the oplot which is played by both japan and china statswise.

just for a buzz threw the regular T80U in there as well. Which is near on par with the chinese T84 lol-

Is not.

T-80U-E1 and oplot has ~630 KE protection, but olpot has protection against antitandem heat

T-80U-E1 has equals protection
