What information tho? Cause the only bug report didn’t provide information on AZUR.
There was an Army Guide link which isn’t a source, and an image that suggested it could be ERA or composite.
So no information…
Stuff posted in here we talk about, but our little thread here isn’t a report.

Yeah yeah go on about it. You want a source? Wayback Machinehttp://www.nexter-group.fr/presse/dossier/ES/ES_armeblinde_VF.pdf

There

“Surprotection passive latérale et arrière complémentaire contre des menaces sur 360° en zone urbaine (IED, ALI…),”

Could you check the source ?
When trying to go on it, all I got is an almost blank page with 4 pictures and next to no text :/

I am merely critiquing the report Wareta made, not opposing it, not degrading the attempt.
Cause I appreciate what everyone does to improve this game; we’re all in this together.

Your links are broken, and I appreciate the attempt at providing them for me.
Sadly your quote does not indicate ERA or composite.

I appreciate your reply.

My bad

Are you still sure the source is correct ?
I see nothing of interest in this particular source :/


And there’s no clickable link either

All the way down. AZUR concept.

Well, while the quote does not give that much informations, it still clearly states that the add on armor is a sort of « passive “sur” protection », hence disproving the presence of ERA, which is by definition active
@Unl3ashed20 for me, i still don’t see the text about the azur. Maybe it’s because i am on my tablet, but i don’t have a computer next to me

Not only that but also this link:

“Passive armor solution covering the front 2/3rd of the tank including the driver and fighting compartment” as well as specially mentioned for SLAT against RPGs

I assume all of these are being collected for a near-future report.

Another one

(Thanks to the help of the french tech tree discord again)

And one that I missed:

" Le blindage est du type modulaire, ce qui permet le remplacement rapide après une bataille et l’évolution quand de nouveaux types de protection apparaissent. Surtout, il est de type actif, c’est à dire composée en “mille-feuille” de manière à guider puis coincer les projectiles entre deux plaques de blindages afin d’éviter un choc brutal à l’équipage et au materiel. Des charges d’explosifs sont également comprises entre les feuilles de manière à faire détoner un projectile sans faire de dégâts sur la couches profondes du blindage."

Translated: “The armor is of the modular type, which allows rapid replacement after a battle and evolution when new types of protection appear. Above all, it is of the active type, that is to say composed in “mille-feuille” so as to guide and then wedge the projectiles between two armor plates in order to avoid a brutal shock to the crew and the equipment. Explosive charges are also included between the sheets in order to detonate a projectile without causing damage to the deep layers of the armor.”

Once again, may I join this “French tech tree” discord ?

And finally, here’s the “Modern tanks’ ballistic protection”, or “La Protection Balistiques des Chars Modernes” part of the “Trucks & Tanks Magazine,‎ N°66, mars-avril 2018, ISSN:1957-4193” magazine.

Oh yeah, I was waiting for a link to join the Discord as well.

Do we have some values of protection of it?

Sadly no that’s all I could find with that source. But it speaks of similar system as the Leo 2A6 arrow head uses. And of ERA inside the composite to probably reduce damage to the NERA from HEAT shells

Im making a bug report about side turret bustle, if we find some more sources we can also make a report about that.

Leclerc sights got changed yesterday on dev. This is historical?

Thank you for putting together these reports, Wareta.

This wasn’t about the turret bustle. That is the whole Armor scheme from what I understand. It doesn’t specify the area
