And again, you can argue whatever you want, doesn’t mean you will be right.
In case you didn’t noticed that goes for almost every other tank as well, its not something special to Abrams nor T-90M.
Not to mention at close distance you will spot BVM or Leo2 regardless because they also have rooftop MG’s. Tactic I mentioned works on medium to long range.
The italian 2A7 is similar, even if you wanted to go passive, peeking the hill with binocular will expose your mg to the enemies. It’s impossible to sneak around with these things, feels like arcade. the leopard PSO also less concealed compare to the german 2A7. That’s why the SEP V1 and the 12.0s are just better than the V2 especially in a br where miliseconds matter.
SEP V1 also suffers from same issue if you want to keep TUSK attached and honestly Gaining extra 50 cal and plus side Era against autocannons/missile carriers are more benefitting than trying to be sneaky all the time in my book.
In the end its all about positioning and first rule of onion.
I removed all of them, extra weight but adding zero significant protections. Similar like the chicken coop from the m1128, only slow your shit down for nothing.

The extra 50cal is good since it can be used even after the commander is dead however side era (IMO) does not do much against autocannons or missile (missiles with tandem charges) at 12.7. Besides the tusk, it also add mine plate which decrease the mobility a lot
Tbh it saved me more than couple times against autocannons so I prefer to keep it, not to mention ERA itself can cause overlapping and plus extra 50 cal is bonus in my book.
In the end its all about personal preference whether you keep TUSK kit or not so I’m not oppose any idea in this case.
Actually it does a lot, especially against 30MM APDS and APFSDS, combining with composite side skirt it makes you almost immune from 90 degree side shot and any angle completely renders those cannons useless.
As for the mobility it doesnt decrease that much, sure you will still feel it but Abrams still faster than 12.7 Leo2’s and can keep up with other top tier tanks even with TUSK kit most of the time.
Well, I would try tusk again with SEP v1 and v2
True, leopard 2 do feel slower then Abram with tusk and mine plate
Only for trolling the enemies, when hull down you can expose only the mg to the enemy who already pre-aim at your direction, switch to mg control then destroy his tracks and place a marker on his head. T29 also can do this over the containers in cargo port lol
I started to do that a lot, it annoys the enemy so much.
The fact that you yourself don’t do as well in your Bhishma compared to your Vickers/Chally 1s doesn’t inspire much confidence in this claim.

That spot can also be used with M1128’s main gun, though you get very little area to work with

Did I whine on the tank?
That’s some weak move from you to defend RU tanks buddy
Try harder ig
Glad to know that I ain’t the only annoying ass player to deal with lol the recently added russian sausage ifv with an atgm launcher held by a 20 foot pole is extremely good at using tricks like this. You might get a little bit more firing angle if you raise the suspension on the 1128.
The T-90M is just weaker in most situations than a whole bunch of NATO MBTs, there is nothing playstyle about that.
Yeah, you do you buddy.
I will, since I can actually make most of the NATO MBTs work.
If I would follow you I would see a sharp decline in that aspect.
