if you have documentation of it, make a bug report

It should or it can? I don’t think a missile would fix Merkava’s issue pointed by the community.

The merkava should absolutely get the LAHAT, if russia and China get accsess to gun launch ATGM’s that most likely would out perform a LAHAT by a largre margin, then merkava’s that have been documented to use or carry LAHAT’s should absolutely get it.

Why merkava mk4m don’t have atgms (LAHAT)
in Irl merkava use this atgm, in wt merkav dont have it


i mean yes, I’m pretty sure the merkava’s have barrel launched ATGMs, but it would do you well to not use wikipedia or AI as a source for that

also as gaijin would say “armaments are a balancing measure”

You need sources better than just a Wikipedia article and an AI search result

At top tier it’s hardly going to make a difference if you ask me, Russian and Chinese tanks at that point have barrel-launched ATGMS of comparable effectiveness in terms of armor penetration. I’d say this is just a misstep on Gaijin’s part or a lack of information to back up their in-game stats with a credible source.

yeah obviously, but it’d still be nice to have

Gaijin already knows the Merkava should have the LAHAT missile, but the missile uses a guidance mechanic that doesn’t exist in the game yet. It’s a line-of-sight missile with two firing modes: a standard trajectory and a top-attack profile.

That’s the core issue.

If you need help finding sources, you can ask the Israeli Discord. I highly do not recommend utilizing AI or Wikipedia to show people “evidence” as they tend to hallucinate or have potentially misleading information.

In this case, however, I believe I can help immediately as I have a primary source.
