yeah i was awake and decided to check the forums and just replied and i dont even remember what i said until recently that i just got in my pc
Speaking of, if you dont mind, could you tell from where you get it?
I found these particular images on RedEffect’s Youtube channel. He goes into depth explaining some stuff. I don’t know his sources off the top of my head, but it’s pretty believable knowing the T-14’s track record and Russia’s reliance on ERA.
On the image of the turret however, that’s just what it looks like inside of it. Someone took a photo out of curiosity.
I see. Wonder if just slapping composite screens akin to Merkava would remedy it
T-14 Armata’s Armor is Worse Than We Thought? (youtube.com)
This is the video if you’re curious. I would still recommend looking into the sources though.
As for the T-14, it’s doomed unless they redesign it. The vehicle has barely any armor at all. It’s a gimmick. I doubt they can do anything armor related with how it’s made.
Pretty much any modern MBT is due to nature of modern conflict (drones) tbh.
As for Armata (as a platform) things not yet clear I think, mostly due to speculative nature (even if we don’t have anything better) and contradicting info (like I saw here speculated form of T-14 frontal plate, but the same or very similar one is installed on T-15)
It doesn’t really matter how strong the ERA is because the turret is probably no more than 30mm thick RHA.
Of course, Gaijin isn’t going to care that all Russian ERA is overperforming in KE protection.
Yeah, 200mm for Relict is “a bit” excessive
there is a picture of the covers of the T-14 separate from the turret, i mean it looks kinda goofy without the covers tbh
here is a much better pic
There’s a picture of the T-14 without anything in its turret. The armor on the turret under the external cover isn’t thick.
found this so far, the turret itself
That’s the one

Some more images of T-14 internal layout have popped up. Of importance for gameplay reasons would be that its confirmed that extra munitions are stored in the turret bustle -9 shots placed transversally-.

Ahhh I sse you also know about grifel round, as far as I am aware it has not been developed yet, only the vaccum rounds have been developed and tested. Does anyone know about the grifel round?
We don´t have anything on Grifel other than indirect references to monstrous velocities (which might be actually a different 152mm APFSDS).

Hope we start 2025 with the right foot and Gaijin works on unique new generation MBTs. I guess it’s something everyone or a few people agrees: No more copy paste, top tier has to be rewarding considering the time of grind, specially for Ground battles that the rewards are less compared to other game modes.

That is exactly what I have read and heard about it, but I do believe there are photos of the vaccum round somewhere on the net.

I agree with the last image, really sad 20K channels stealing from 200 man channels, really hypocritical of the stealer.
