Schützenpanzer Puma IFV: The Good, The Bad, The Ugly. Part 2!

I dont really get why Modern HHRA is Less effective than normal HHRA. Pretty sure the Technology to develop these plates has Advanced but i guess we went backwards.

Modern HHA usually has a lower hardness, however tends to be much less brittle in comparison.

So the Combined Armor Value is 36.25mm.

So, i have found a video on a Bundeswehr Exercise with the Puma and in 1 specific moment we can not only see the Rear Armor thickness of the Puma but we have an object to compare it with and its the muzzle brake on the G36.

Oxy just said on the dev stream that some outstanding reports for the Puma are being looked at and should be implemented with the next update.
Maybe were about to get a W for once

looking at the total stream, those bugs must be the wrong name of the Puma, I have no hope for REAL fixes…

Maybe were getting thrown some crumbs to justify the price tag on the prem Puma

Honestly looking at the entire situation as a whole, yea no there is in no way shape or form the Puma gets fixed. If several major bugs were present for Half a Year, then dont be confident that any of those reports were taken into account.

Hey @AspectOfTheRAGE, So your report of the Overpressure bug has been fixed (well i hope it is) but they put a weird downside to this. (if i read this correctly)

Nothingburger tbh
It just means that HE fragments hitting the FCS module will result in the game applying pressure damage (i.e. believing an HE shell or its fragments have enough penetration to enter the fighting compartment).

e.g. the H-drive module and commander stuck outside of the actual armour, so non-penetrating shots started applying pressure damage when one of their fragments hit either module.

Now that the commanders head no longer clips through the roof and the h-drive isnt considered to be within the fighting compartment, the current issues we have on LIVE will be resolved as pressure damage is no longer applied in these cases.

Aslong as the FCS module doesnt stick out of the actual fighting compartment, everything is as it should be.

Eh, I still have my doubts (Looks at Promised Leopard 2 Rework which we were told 3-4 years ago)

I only believe it once we get the changes

That is a very good stance on it right now so lets wait on How they Implement it.

Lets sneak into the Puma Cage in Munster, armed with a drill and test how thick the roof is xD
