Russian tanks are overrated as hell

[Necrons31467]

You’re moving the goalpost. You said ‘‘anything at it’s BR can penetrate the upper glacis.’’

That’s simply not true as demonstrated by an Object 292 at point blank range failing to penetrate it, and instead of admitting that it wasn’t true, you’ve moved the goalpost to the driver’s hatch.

@Flanker_Thunder

No they aren’t, they have the amount of armor than an Abrams’ turret but simply everywhere in the front.
The only way it can be “squishy” is, as i said, if the enemy doesn’t know how to aim (cof cof NATO mains cof cof)

oh so they are squishy if the enemies knows how to aim? i never had a problem killing them, and yeah its like aiming for any other tanks weakspot, they are rather easy to kill

@Flanker_Thunder

they’re extremely well armored and can tank a exagerated amount of rounds if u manage to hide ur hull (for example: hiding ur LFP behind a rock).

just shoot the big ass forehead they have lmao

and this weakspot is even easier with higher penning rounds

@Flanker_Thunder

Did u know about the crew’s vitality to lvl 3 for surviving fuel explosions?

yeah

@Flanker_Thunder

So this doesn’t mean they’re bad? U just said the ones at toptier are inferior to the NATO rounds which actually means nothing cuz u don’t need 653mm to destroy a MBT nowdays, just skill and some luck.

how does lackluster mean bad? i literally say they are “fine” and i just wish for more penretation jesus

[TheKrackenGME]

I only really play WW2 soviet tank destroyers since the gun is so fun to use for deleting tanks. Although with modern Russian MBTs I find their armour very difficult to penetrate

admitting that it isn’t true? as i said, driver’s hatch is part of the UFP, and can be penetrated.
except of saying im wrong cuz u can’t aim for the biggest weakspot on an Abrams that any WT player with enough braincells would aim at, u could just agree that it’s ez to pen, as u even showed how not just the driver’s hatch can be penetrated, but also the near sides of the same driver’s hatch.

u should trust more in ur own brain than in a bad-programmed AI.

@Λ N G Ξ L

Russia has four main battle tanks with 40-degree traverse and elevation mechanisms.

lmao where’s the 4th one? pls tell me, i want to use 1 MBT more in my russian lineups since 3 MBTs (and just 2 of them actually useful) feel not enough compared to 5/6 Leopards-3 Abrams-3 Challengers-6 french MBTs-5 swedish MBTs.

and trust me, russians don’t have a single tank with 40º traverse, just the germans have a tank with 40º traverse and it’s the Leopard 2A4M.

[PompousMagnus]

russian tanks are playable, not the greatest but they are serviceable enough to carry games and get into your air assets reliably. Not really bad enough to complain about, people only think they are “op” because of leddit. However these are “people” that believe anything russian is just op because of some baked in bias so…

properly rated by anyone above 90iq

Depends on which T-series. The T-80BVM/T-72B3 are really easy to pen and knock out when hull down.

@Flanker_Thunder

Nah anyone with braincells aims for the turret ring, the drivers hatch has way to much risk of Gaijin.

Also the irony of you calling skill issue on people when you have major normie stats in your 10.0+ MBTs.

“Consider vertical angle” enabled, so these screenshots are pretty much useless.

M1A2 with M829A2 can penetrate the UFP of a T-90M and T-80BVM at any distance.

idk WHY would you go for the drivers port in a abrams when theres a big ass turret ring but you do you i guess

T90M T72B3 T80BVM T72B3A T72B3A(11.0)
It’s not 4, but 5 indeed
The combat efficiency of the T90M and T80BVM is much higher than that of most vehicles.

[Λ_N_G_Ξ_L]

However, the performance of Russian tanks in the game has indeed been greatly enhanced compared to their actual performance on Earth. lmao

[Belenor85]

Well they have to excel somewhere…

[a_00]

bringing real life things in game is very stupid

As i always say, i’m an air main, i have sh*tty stats in any tank i play ofc.

Ofc turret ring is a way better weakspot, but we’re talking about UFP.

T90M T72B3 T80BVM T72B3A T72B3A(11.0)
It’s not 4, but 5 indeed

Lmao u need to be kidding.
T-72B3 and B3 “Arena” are NOT toptier content at all.
Saying they have 5 tanks (1 more than the 4 u said they had LOL) when they just have 3 and 2 of them being the only ones actually useful is the biggest ragebait i have ever heard about russian MBTs.
Both B3s use Kontakt-5, which can be penetrated by anything at toptier, so basically they’re just moving targets with an annoying stick that shoots to people.

They don’t have the mobility, the armor, nor the technology of the way more modern T-90M/T-80BVM.

Whileeee, NATO has copy-paste tanks with 1% differences between each other (Leopard 2A6 = Leo 2A5 with longer cannon/ M1A2 SEP V2 = M1A2 with slightly better armor and that’s ALL).
I would kill to get a better T-90M/T-80BVM to combine with the original ones.

[Λ_N_G_Ξ_L]

The T72B3 has similar technology to the top-tier ones, but the Russian bias has placed it in a lower weight class. This is the reason why the Russian 11.3 average win rate is over 60%
The frontal armor of the K5 tank T72 is 640mm thick. Except for the L55DM53, no other shells can penetrate it
