I disagree with that, tho i sold my UM-1 after trying the Drozd on T-55AMD.
T-80UM2 is my second most played vehicle
It used to be 11.3 though at 11.7 its APS can still stop hellfires, spikes, and pretty much any SACLOS IFV ATGM (such as from the Bradley /BMPT / BMP-2M) from what I remember.
I did number of matches with T-55AMD and it never caught even a MILAN rocket xD
I’m surprised!
MILAN goes 200m/s so it’s definitely within the 70m/s-700m/s range.
The Arena system in-game has the same vertical protection as Drozd (20 degrees) but it covers a whole 360 degrees instead of just 40 degrees.
Arena can also stop threats at ~1000m/s too and not just 700m/s.
I mean we’ll see but it’s definitely a useful APS at 11.0, or 11.3 if they decide to uptier it.
Well i sure hope so. As it will be pretty unpleasant knowing i spent my time for nuthing

Meanwhile, the Leo 2a4 ( 10.7 ) player has to specifically target T72-B3 weak point, while the jerk just points and clicks anywhere, right??? Is that very fair to you? If this is going to be the case, just give DM53 to Leopard 2a4 to make things fairer.
See mobility chart I sent. You are more than twice as fast to 60 and have an 8 km/h higher top speed. You will basically always be on his side.

As if ATGMs made to penetrate ERA didn’t exist.

Oh, sure, because it’s only 2A4s and T-72s in every single match.

Oh you best believe when it becomes publicly available that these matchups will happen.

Yup, that’s fair.
You’ve compared their respective armour profiles, but how about you compare their mobility now? Surely you wouldn’t be neglecting this extremely important aspect because it doesn’t fit the narrative, right?

Mobility doesn’t matter.
proceeds to get oneshotted with Fox`s 30mm APDS to the side
Stop bullshit I have t72 and Leopard 2a4 with reverse speed how much time I killed T72 and survived from bad situtaion. Lier.
How does the T-90A and regular T-72B3 fare?
Yeah, I don’t know what that guy is on about. AFT09, ZT3A2, and the other tandem slingers go right through any T-series, or any tank in general - Except for those that have APS, which is why this event vehicle will be useful.

Yes. I tried it on the test drive and I’m fully convinced 11.0 is perfectly fine for this tank.
In fact, it’s still inferior to tanks like ZTZ-99-II, ZTZ-99-III and T-80UD/BE, which are also 11.0.
I am only interested in this T-72 as a reinforcement to the current 11.3 lineup. Better than base T-72B, obviously… but nothing spectacular.
may i ask in what ways?
I do believe those ZTZs are awfull so i want to have a proper picture of what is awaining me when ill try spading teh 72b3 arena
