Click bait would likely win…? More pen, faster reload, better mobility etc.

Or if you have to do a splitsecond shot in a weakspot while T-Series can just shoot centermass?
I don’t suffer from that problem. I’m very good at aiming.
Good for you but we can agree that one is objectively harder than the other?.
Yes. I agree there.
One was designed to be a tiny hard to hit target. The other is almost 1/3 taller than the other.

Except that if both players are equally unskilled the Click bait has a decent chance to whiff on the T-80U weakspot while the T-80U can just aim center mass and have a 90% chance to either one shot kill or turret ring+engine the Abrams.
You say that the T-series are one tap, but the Abrams are also laughably easy to one tap. It takes a next level skill issue if it consistantly takes someone more than 1-2 shots to kill an Abrams, I would rate their survivability at a similar level as the T-series.

Wait why a T-80U vs an clickbait?
In either case, pretty sure the click bait’s M829a2 or 1 round can pierce the upper hull of the T-80
Survivability wise on an abrams depends on where you hit, it could be 2-3 shots to kill at worst, but a t series is most likely a one shot, purely due to how the model APFSDS bouncing magically off the floor plate of the T-series into the ammo / gunner / commander, making them artificially weakened due to a round piercing the lower plate 100mm RHa when sloped, somehow degrading an APFSDS so much it can’t blow through the 20mm floor plate anymore.
since we were talking about equally unskilled players I thought I’d use the T-80UE-1 and Click bait as examples as they are both premiums that new players can just buy off the bat.
You have to try really hard to get that scenario though or have situations where you blindly shoot through smoke, any self respecting player with good aim should be able to 1-2 shot kill the Abrams the overwhelming majority of the time.
Even if I take supposedly “bad shots” against an Abrams like shooting the LFP I very often still one shot it.

There’s been weird shots on the LFP and UFP I’ve had. I’m pretty sure the no damage glitch is still apparent in the abrams (on a rare occasion) if shooting the LFP in certain areas
alternate timeline: both whiff and barrel each other

This depends on more things than just armor.
He did mention about “unskilled players” so beside armor in his conversation.
I know, I took that into consideration.
As I thought. You are wrong

You know you could actually show the subsequent “Hit analysis” (Shot.blk), to actually provide the terminal pathing of penetrator.
Also why expect IM compliant munitions to do anything when shot?
No I cannot. I am on Xbox. I don’t get those files. Thanks gaijin.
But hitting the ammo in only the blowout panel doesn’t result in a death during reload like @CyrusJackson believes

It can.
It should irl if the door is open but in game it doesn’t
That’s not how deflagrations work. The propulsive powder charge doesn’t explode, it burns; each shell is individually sealed into the rack, and Comp. B is not that sensitive to shock or fire.
And besides the blow-out panel still function preferentially, and so limit the pressure wave.
All those have the door closed
