The standards to revise M1A2 SEPv3's armor NEED to be revised and calibrated

Same bro I have spent so much time and money on this game and all they do is slap its American base in the face. I will not play this game anymore if they don’t get the sep3 right

Not only the American base, basically every nation part from the Chinese and Russian.

I already made a bug report on it but it got taken down immediately, and i did have valid sources :(

The only thing i want gaijin to give the new abrams is ROSY + LWS, Trophy aps to sep v3 and gen 3 thermals.


There also giving the sep v3 the gripen E treatment, so stupid

Army recognition comparison between 2a8 and sep v3 cleary shows, gen 3 thermals, aps etc

@Smin1080p_WT (sorry for pinging you, didn’t know who else to ping)

Do you mind giving some elaboration on this bug reporting managers answer?

Like what does he mean by “Not a bug report”
How is this not a bug report?
Something is wrong with a vehicle that will be added next update → makes report on it → = “not bug report”

Most vague answer ever

Because they like to selectively choose when and where ro label things bugs.

Its pure bias.

Because the APS system for the Abrams is separate from the vehicle, and often operates without it IRL. In game this means it gets added as a separate vehicle with APS, so we will get a SEP v3 Abrams with APS in a future update, just the same as they first released a SEP v2 without APS and we are getting one with APS this update.

You probably know more than me about bug reports but make sure u dont reach the max text limit or whatever its called when making the bug report, i did and i did not have a backup of it so yeah :(

Well thats just plainly stupid tbh, why cant they just make it a modification like i stated…

Unfortunately Gaijin doesn’t do APS modifications for any vehicle (I think I may be wrong), probably so they can have more vehicles to add for line ups (T-90M and T-90M Arena, SEP v2 & SEP v2 TROPHY, etc). I just wish they would be foldered.

You’re free to use my terrible math based on MRE box measurements. In all seriousness provided you get dimensions of the hull and turret cheeks you could easily do the math for armor weight.

Back in 2021, Gaijin claimed that they would “calculate values based on publicly available data, such as likely threats and requirements” when it came to PRESENT DAY CLASSIFIED VEHICLES. Let’s see if they are willing to follow through with the UNDENIABLE information and calculations of this report.

10 minutes in already a negative comment

There’s always going to be those people. Logically speaking why the hell would the US Army add 20mm of steel to the engine deck like that guy claims as an example? NEA is a program not only to improve the ARMOR but to also improve weight saving. When you think of modern tank armor, do you think of the structural hull elements OR THE VERY OBVIOUS COMPOSITE ARMOR.

What is that image supposed to tell us???

Gaijin is using a “technical quibble”
I’ll explain, they added the HE-TF in his prototype designation and the tank M1A2C so following the same path by this you can conclude that if it is a prototype it cannot get SepV3 3rd gen thermals no?

All that i said, you can throw it in the trash as gaijin themselves patched the names with production variant and the tank itself as SepV3, so there is not reason to deny that report effectively

welcome to double standards thunder
