That ridiculous composite armor would have to have a KE coefficient of at least around 0.6 to withstand a direct shot from a 100mm APCBC.
However, even the earliest composite armor like the HCR2 model I mentioned boasts a KE coefficient of 0.25 and CE coefficients ranging from 1.15 to 1.3. This blatantly disrespects modern materials science, exposing Gaijin’s dismissive attitude toward scientific rigor.
Wdym behind paywall? Its literally a squadron vehicle
This actually let me remembered that Крупнокалиберный Переполох, the famous russian military youtuber made a Video about T-90M
And in this video he showed a, even not a GA8 Armored insert, just a ceramic strikeface from China, withstand one 12.7x108 firing from T-90M’s remote weapon stations machinegun.
look at 13:30 in this video.
I cannot imagine a countrys designer can design this kind of ceramic strike face, but cannot developed proper composite armor for VT-5 tank… isnt that quite ridiculous?
Reasonable evidence has been provided, yet you have dismissed it with absurd reasons. Do you want to elicit confidential documents by doing so
Rational evidence has been offered, and you have disposed of it on the most absurd grounds. Accurate data can only be found in secret documents, you are a scoundrel.
@Char_Bosian
You came here just to harass people trying to fix VT5…
There has been no evidence provided by you or anyone else proving that VT5 in War Thunder is correct.
VT5 is incorrect no matter how many times you attack us.
Nah, Your speech was ambiguous enough to create confusion. Especially when passed through translators.
As a joke, some of the guys will believe you as Stona’s sub-account. :P
Indeed, Gaijin completely ignores (and likely refuses to acknowledge) even the most basic advancements in materials science. Despite decades of progress, fundamental improvements in material properties receive no recognition whatsoever.
“I’ve been following Fox’s posts on the forum since March 13th. They’re truly contradictory—often hard to tell if it’s a translation issue or intentional.”
I believe it was with Abrams.
The VT5’s modular armor system includes a “base configuration” with composite protection (e.g., reactive armor plates on the hull front and hollow armor modules for mine resistance) and optional upgrades (ERA or slat armor). These base components provide essential protection, while add-ons enhance survivability in high-threat scenarios.The VT5’s composite armor is an intrinsic part of its design, Claims that it “relies solely on external armor” ignore its foundational protective architecture and technological sophistication.
You’re no exception
Correct, I am one of the many trying to fix VT5.
@yichenfu
I see you’re here to harass people trying to fix VT5 as well instead of being civil…
VT5’s armor is incorrect no matter how many times you attack us.
I get you hate VT5, I get you want to ruin VT5 in War Thunder, but that is no way to behave.
Keep claiming that it’s nonsense to say VT5’s armor is incorrect, keep demeaning the hundreds of people trying to fix the VT5; all you do is prove all of us correct.
Talking to you doesn’t require civility—you don’t deserve it. When engaged in a civilized debate, you’re incapable of responding, so you choose to ignore it. If you had stopped there, it might have been fine, but instead, you continue to spout nonsense. Your arguments are not only unworthy of refutation but also reveal a lack of basic common sense, which is utterly laughable.
You are just one among many who spread misinformation. Don’t act like an angel—you’re nothing but an ugly demon from hell. I’ll throw your words right back at you: no matter how many times you attack, I will stand firm and refute. It is you who are obfuscating the truth, not me. Wrong is wrong, and accurate is accurate. Don’t think your flapping lips can twist right and wrong.
@yichenfu
VT5’s armor is incorrect.
Keep claiming that VT5 is correct in War Thunder, keep claiming its perfect; all you do is post misinformation.
You’ve provided no evidence that VT5 in War Thunder is correct. NONE.
Yes, you are nothing but a machine that churns out errors, the biggest behind-the-scenes culprit ruining the game. Your arguments are nonexistent, and your so-called issues are pure fantasy.
