You can’t just say X pens Y and thus its the best shell.
In fact 3bm60 is by far the best tank shell, when you evaluate potential target tanks. While BlueFor shells indeed have better penetration values, they still fail to penetrate UFP/turrets of eastern tanks. You need to aim for specific weakpoints, despite high penetration values.
3bm60, even with less pen, is still able to pen the frontal chassis of almost all western tanks. So its superior, despite lower pen values.
i mean after this update the challengers will have no advantages against even 11.0 tanks but i still doubt it
Actually its often literally just a house brick…
The players that use it not being a major nation player is the advantage.
(im replacing all of my challengers bar the OES with the ADF abrams.
heres a photo from a certain thing going on right now that shows this russian “relikt era” which is just egg cartons that can be found in my cupboard
Or Challenger 11.7 T72B3 11.7 and M1A2 12.3 T80BVM Leo A7 M1A2 SEP… 13.0
In conclusion, the current BR system does have some unfair aspects. However, the T72B3 is not as biased towards Russia as the BMPT, Pantsir SM, or MI28NM
So just as with 3BM60.
Not aiming for weakspots will be unreliable at best.
But we have to keep the myth up that RU tanks don’t have to aim.
I take the Merkava nuke shell or DM53 if i could chose.
nyet, that is special russian NERA composite with 43074532mm of KE protection
You people are so naive it’s scary. Are eggs in Russia diamond shaped?
oky it might not be egg cartons but it is cardboard which is the point i was making
Watch at least a minute of the video, they are ERA spacers, if they had no explosive elements to put inside these bags they wouldn’t put them on the side in the first place
because as it stands right now they’ve blatantly told people that reports are not enough information, there have been mods seeking classified documents. as well as claiming reports directly from specific nations Armies are in fact marketing lies.
they claim L27 can’t get through a T80U hull as it can’t in game .which is ridiculous as IRL it has been fired through a t80U with ERA xD
The sepV3 report was shut after 30 minutes, which is literally impossible to read the volume of content whcih was inside it, let alone to understand it and comprehend it.
a minute of a video from a russian propogandist?, interesting…
Serbian accent = Russian propagandist, got it.
says complete bs = russian propogandist
RedEffect was the chap who put out a (rather poorly timed) video ahead of 2022 telling everyone why top-attack and Javelin wouldn’t work on Russian tanks.
So…yeah. He has form for some interesting takes that aren’t necessarily rooted in reality.
I guess the effect of ERA is just videogame propaganda. Thats the conclusion you might draw when you follow a certain conflict and its abundance of battlefield media. Modern ATMs and even very old KE rods (like DM23) don’t seem to have alot issues. Also small FPV drones with even smaller shaped charge grenades seem to be effective, when they hit the ERA blocks ontop of the turret. While ingame BlueFor munitions can’t do that (like ingame top down missiles).
Nor should you use a youtuber with previous technical inaccuracies as an authority on modern classified armour arrays?
See the way it works both ways?
He has definitely had some rather odd takes and statements in the past, that’s why he revises these videos and admits his mistakes and some outright lies in the past and corrects them later. One odd situation like this isn’t something to go off of, and if you don’t like him, you can always look up information yourself if you believe it’s egg cartons
you can literally see under the challenger video i watched the full thing, and it was 20 minutes of misinformation and stupidity
red affect is wrong about 90% of the things he says but of course your gonna eat it all up pretend everyone else is wrong even when the photo clearly shows it is literaally just cardboard
