He’s wanting the added thickness taken into account. That’s what is happening. The armor plate can absolutely be added with little work
Honestly I thought this kind of cross section was part of what they have been looking for this whole time as a source to accept a change.
You got a source for that? Seriously because if it has some unclassified, public distribution backing that would probably get the Abrams its spall liners.
Edit: Going off of the original image reddit post it’s a combination of Abrams, T-64, and MBT-70/kPz-70…
It is worth remembering that the Magach 3 ERA Premium, being a tank from the early late 70s, uses ammunition from the 60s, being in the same Br and being from the same era as the Magach 5 which uses the APDS-FS M111. It could be said that the Magach 3 ERA is a bad premium version of the Magach 5. All this happens firstly because the Magach 3 was added to the game as the early 70s version and at the same time the era armor was added which made it into the late 70s early 80s version, and secondly it seems that when a premium tank no longer sells, gaijin forgets about it completely and acts as if it didn’t exist.
If you stop to look, you see an abysmal amount of errors in the armor models, penetrations, historical nonsense with the ammunition, and the developers do not bother at all to fix them, they simply follow their marked route to maximize benefits without having to do many things, and not bothering to spend time correcting things that in the end do not generate profit. They are negligent even with the accepted reports, since there are many important reports, and that affect many vehicles that have been accepted for a year but not corrected yet, when they should be corrected as quickly as possible, since these are things that greatly affect the performance of the affected vehicles.
That’s why I would rather start with the things we have accepted suggestions for, like bulkhead, turret ring, TUSK, turret bustle, for changes.
I don’t even care about hull armor tbh. If they’d just fix the breach, turret ring and lower mantlet, I’d be happy and never complain again. We’d be able to reliably hull down without playing dodge the breach shot
Pet peeve of mine, TUSk 2 isn’t a thing. ARAT 2 somehow got the name. TUSK is just TUSK, even if it has ARAT 2.
Still has the hydraulic fluid reservoir labeled as a hydraulic pump, even though the real pump is next to the engine.
It’s just wild you would have thought with all the photos of Sepv2s with no add on urban kit, they would make it a module instead.
It does suck. They nerf the M19 tile, add more weight with the M32 tile, and make it unremovable.
I guess they wanted to differentiate SEPv2 from SEP, but why they did that instead of anything else is insane
Yeah I’ve though about that before, but one look at the Sepv2 with a crows only still looks different than the regular
They could have done that by giving the SEPv2 Trophy. It’s one of the biggest things that the Army likes about the SEPv2, is that it has Trophy.
And there are plenty of photos with it equipped
true, think that would still make me prefer SEP over SEPv2 though
If they make both TUSK and Trophy optional, with TUSK being scaled down with Trophy installed, that would be a great bit of middle ground. You can do away with the ERA, but keep the APS
They added Trophy to the M1s of 4 armored brigades, or is what at least is planned. I doubt all the SEPv2s they are using are the newer models. So there also shouldn’t be an excuse where the older ones don’t have it.
they still havent fixed m735 on the 105 m1 after what 2 updates since they said they made a mistake from the bug report on it or that it was a false report and said they were going to fix it
Gaijin: if it is not Russia we are not fixing it. Tough. Igor has a napkin with a modification for the Su-34 that says its great though. He is totally reliable you know?
Exactly. They could have used M829A3, its historical munition choice which even according to Gaijin “wouldn’t change much ingame anyway”…
