Some maps allow you to hulldown even with such gun depression.
Those are relatively modern models so they most likely have this issue fixed. Stuff like t72a/b or t80b suffer from having weak roof armor.
I mean protection vs darts. Soviet roof armor is horrid vs apfsds and is easy to hit. When t series drives out from some hill, its huge roof appears before gun. So you can just shoot them there to k.o. breech or crew. Unless trunion rng kicks in.
No that just wrong. It hard to overpressure cause of all the ERA on the top of the Turret. Meaning you either have to de-ERA all of them first or get lucky and land on one of the hatch. That is over pressure, when just using dart you can just shoot them normally in the breech lol.
L27a1 and DM53 on the ariete. Both are great rounds… ish (L27a1 just loves do create no spall for me). Its just the amount of times ill get a quick shot off on a guy rushing round a corner, perfefetly land it just to do no damage. Or when a t series decides to push me over a hill and even with my advantage ill non pen his roof or breach as he nukes my tank by shooting my roof… Its just a noticeable difference when facing other nato tanks who i dont even have to bother thinking about where to aim as i can usually just ufp them or in the case of the leo 2 just breach them as gaijin still think nerfing nato breaches help with the games balance for some reason when russia clearly has a massive advantage in this are.
Thats also another thing. russian breaches getting a buff while nato bug reports about breaches getting side lined due to balance.
I’ve had it happen to me with just 3 DM11s in my 2A7V… yes it is a feature.
Case in point: it shouldn’t happen with ANY amount of HE shells, but reporting this will prove fruitless as Gaijin doesn’t even consider insensitive munitions as real.
