Because those are 4th generation MBTs. (Except type 10 that ots already ingame)
Plus it has strong armor (classified but i read somewhere it has 900mm rha) and unmaned turret. Something that needs more modern rounds to counter.
Now this its my balanced perspective, I know Gaijin will add this sooner and almost no counter to it.
There are even newer MBTs: M1A2T, Challenger 3, Ariete AMV. Like if the year meant anything.
Same reason the SEPv2 came with tanks 7-10 years newer.
Or same reason the T-80BVM was added as a counterpart for tank that are 7-15 years older.
Brother T-14 isnt in service they drive them around and test them. They are not producing them and unlike even the Su-57 we see no development
They starting production of Su-47 Berkut ?
True but its not like the 2A7 we have in game has anything in common with the real life 2A7 except for the programmable HE ammo
Vacuum 1/2 = 900-1000mm pen
Sprinter = tandem 900mm pen + mmw and 12k anti helicopter reach
In addition to whatever anyone else has said.
The devs haven’t even added M829A3 which is a round from 2003/2004 which is 4 years before the M1A2sepv2 was even made. T-14 is a long way off, and so are any rounds that hit harder.
I’m loaded up on this winter flu…Su-57
Damn that thing looks awesome tho with black camo
Just another part of china crying

Recently I have been playing the US TT ARB. Unfortunately, you guessed wrong.
All but the 4th gen mbt is wrong.
1000mm frontal armor on the crew compartment, pretty sure it’s 600 on the sides, the area around the gun isn’t armored and the hull sides near that area are likely only 100mm. You can ammo rack it, but it’s designed to blow the turret out to keep the crew alive
It also changes the turret drive to electrical I believe for easier maintenance.
Bye bye hydraulic sump pump, you won’t be missed.
I’m not quite following here… also the T-80bvms are not became largely inert after newer rounds were added.
It’s not by any means a great tank.
In order to ammo rack it you have to go through that 1000mm frontal armor and through the crew. Also the turret could not have any armor but thats useless when the turret its empty. Its like hitting a 2s38 turret except it doesnt have the ammo in the turret.
So in conclusion, only way to kill it with current rounds its lower plate and in hull down you will not make any damage that cant be repaired, as so no crew loss or ammo rack
I was just being simple since he things nothing was added lol
Most shots would likely disable the turret, but the t14 has the mobility to flee.
The APS though may degrade APFSDS up to 12~% and largely eliminate and HEAT projectiles
