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

sorry but you literally cannot see if it’s elongated due to the angle of the photo and hull together.
I know where the UFP is mate, but if they extended it to insert armour into the composite array, than you won’t see if from that angle.

alright mate. You’re a fanny, whats the point in insulting others?
Did you read the bug report?
also your measuring tapes at an angle in the 2nd photo.
You’ve also not showing where the tape is coming from which proves as I said, nothing: i’ve been on this thread from the begining I’ve seen your comments and chosen to ignore them until now.

EDIT Correction tape can be seen photo didn’t load properly on the laptop

Unlikely. Side skirt thickness remains the same and they are interchangeable between SEPv2 and SEPv3. You can order them as a separate item from the tank (like if you bust one in the field). They are also interestingly not considered sensitive like the main armor array.

Even the “composite” skirt sections?

Day 3: Still waiting for the developers to fix the M1A2 SEPv3 hull armor.

Forget about the oceans, the real Bermuda Triangle is located right inside the M1A2 SEPv3 hull in War Thunder. It’s a magical place where tons of official military equipment and armor upgrades enter, but only the raw weight comes out on the spreadsheet. Let’s solve this mystery and bring the protection back to reality!

You would see if they cut new steel for the UFP because it would be a different color than the rest of the hull, which they would have to do to increase the UFP RHA thickness, which is the whole point of my posting that picture.

Yes, I provided a few of the sources. I read it before it was published (if we are talking about the bug report).

If you’ve been on this thread since the beginning, then you should know I’m one of the staunchest supporters of improved hull composite armor for the SEPv3, that I’ve provided many sources and analysis to support that, and that I’m also probably a wee bit more qualified to talk on this than you.

You win no friends or help to y’alls cause by pushing fantasies like that the hull composite module is actually thicker, you just provide more ammo for Gaijin and devs to dismiss you by putting obvious falsehoods in your arguments.

Edit: also idk why my last response say’s it’s a reply to you, but as you can see it’s clearly not

So was the Hull apparently, Turret is still MIA though for some reason (FMS clients maybe?)

I think it’s more advantageous to do like the Ukrainian soldiers did, take the Abrams and fill it with Kontakt 1.

The evidence that Gaijin has to buff the hull on the SEP3 is adding up too fast, they are scrambling for something arbitrary to make worse on the tank before they admit defeat and give it better hull protection

I’m not saying you aren’t. i am saying in that picture you won’t clearly seen if armour has been imroved on the UFP,

likely, and? one is not allowed to observe the data that’s been provided, or the manner in which it’s provided and make judgement in it?

who is this collective “y’all” as well as what cuase?
I have no cause at all.

we are in fact.

Then you’d know it mentions the UFP as well as the LFP arrays both.
Not just the LFP array.

Irregardless of that, the reports been shot down anyways which is the main cause of many of the frustrations we are all feeling.

Well if someone wanted to report it, T-80 autoloaders are missing the central splined shaft that transfers power & serves as a fluid coupling from the Hull to the Cassette and Rammer.

First to the point of why we’re introducing the baskets to the horizontal aiming drives. From a gameplay and design standpoint, the current damage model (without the basket, with more empty space under the turret) penalizes players who hit the center of mass area where there is nothing to damage, even though they did everything right and landed a shot in this area.
~
From our perspective, we want to avoid penalizing the player who managed to land a shot on the enemy first, reducing those frustrating moments of penetrating a vehicle without doing any meaningful damage — even though the round passed through a significant amount of the interior.

We’re continuing to add new and updated internal modules for vehicles that don’t currently have them. For the T-64 and T-80 series, the autoloader module will be refined, and a new element reflecting the conveyor mechanism will be added above the turret ring. This new element will retain the same functionality of the autoloader module we have already, and will effectively make it easier for the autoloader system to be disabled. The vertical and horizontal drive models have also been refined, they are now more accurate and in general will take up a little more space inside the tank.

it depends if they keep it with the basic m1a1 armour, because the ukranian ones dont have the U armour package names iirc

it’ll be shot down just the same

And it could be used all the same to get some additions reverted.

true there mate.

just wish we had some bloody consistency with Gaijin.
