TheChieftain deals with this pretty well when he states those loaders boasting such reload times never quite seem to reach such load times when they actually record themselves doing it.
The M1 Abrams with the 105mm achieved a 5.33 second reload on average according to sources, but that model was able to lap-load.
The 120mm version loads slightly slower and every single video recording I’ve ever seen of a loader inside an actual M1 (not a training facility, training with the doors kept continually open or mock-up) is between 6-10 seconds.
Gaijin has definitely went with a very, very generously quick reload, but they have done that across the board for most (if not all) nations for gameplay purposes.
Well then i am in the wrong lmao, i saw video’s out there saying that abrams crew members saying it and that thats a reason to buff the abrams reload. My fault on not doing proper research lmao :)
Theoretically Gaijin could go as low as ~1.8 - 2 seconds if it was treated the way the current T-series’ Rammer cycling is, since the only thing that is required for the loading procedure is the ammo compartment’s door to be closed before the gun is declared ready to fire.
2:34 it shoots and 2:39 its fully loaded. I would probably add some decimals to that loading tho. Also for consecutive firing the load time reduces to 4 seconds if you do not let the door to be closed.
Like in this one, loads at 1:29 and fires again at 1:33. 4 seconds but I suspect the door was kept open.
Not to mention WT reloads unaffected by hitting bumps or general mobility, and they never tire out.
Also having 2 crew and being able to control turret while reloading. Lmao.
Where is the folks saying the BMPT “wasn’t responsible for RU WR”
“I kill braindead BMPT for breakfast, lunch, dinner”
“Abrams, Leopard, Stroking-vehicle 122B+ master race”
And all the sudden memory loss about all the statements.
…and yet your stats in the T-90M are still on a par with your 12.7 Abrams such as the SEPv2. A tank which you have said you enjoy and prefer to use over T-90M yet statistically the T-90M has netted you more results.
I played a lot of my SEPv2 games when the 2A7 was at it’s most powerful 2-3 years ago, combined with me just not being as decent back then as I am now.
The gooner M1A1 HC, M1A2T, M1A2 trophy and SEPv3 are my more recently played Abrams and all sit considerably higher than the T-90M in performance.
yeah the russians have worse shells not only because of historical reasons but also…THEIR NOT FIGHTING RUSSIAN BIAS ERA AND BLACK HOLE BMPT ARMOR! THEY DONT NEED BETTER SHELLS!
