Turret Baskets in top tier - Broken Promises

[Ascension32]

Personally i dont see this changing. With the constant nerfs that seem to hit western countries and the constant buffs thats hit either russia or china i dont see them implementing anything that would improve the situation.

They can only be applied to tanks that have them.

@Grossaaaa
The autoloader module is a nerf to T-series tanks. not a buff.
Autoloader cannot stop rounds from hitting ammo and cooking off the tank.

@CHARM_3
Powered turret traverse can be disabled if hull present autoloaders, rotating floors, or baskets are damaged, and it’d be fine.

@Cloudzy26160
Adding Pantsir equivalents to all tech trees would’ve kept IR AGM CAS OP.

I find it unfortunate that Stona closed two of the discussions without giving much of any reason. As well, it’s unfortunate that Gaijin decided to temporarily disable the FCS on eastern tanks until more get them, but hasn’t done so for the Abrams or Leo. (To my knowledge, this still hasn’t changed months later either). These systems should only be applied once all top-tier nations are affected.

@Stona_WT

• T-72 (all variants), T-80 (all variants), T-90 (all variants), ZTZ96 (all variants), ZTZ99 (all variants), WZ1001(E) LCT, VT4A1, MBT-2000, Al-Khalid-I — new FCS (fire control system) modules have been added, trunnions have been added. Destruction of these modules on these tanks doesn’t yet affect the function of the tank systems, just as on other MBTs in the game currently. Later, after these modules have been added to the majority of MBTs in the game, their functionality will be enabled for all at once.

Remember how fast they disabled the hydraulic pump on the t90s xdddddd

[Zahltag]

sorry, the turms which has a huge one irl doesnt get one, but the r400 does. Rules for thee but not for russia

[Zahltag]

Classic stona moment

[Kyuss]

I was more talking about if the turret floor gets damaged as a way to implement a turret basket like system bc it doesn’t have one

[Kyuss]

Yeah, I am not fully sure and did just assume they went with the same system as the chally 1, but I wasn’t sure bc I have heard some people say it does have one. Those people being former tankers, but they might not know how it exactly works

@CHARM_3

I believe the reason the Challenger 2 doesn’t have a turret basket is because when they were thinking about the C2 in the 90s, the UK MOD testes the Abrams. They stated the Abrams has an 80% fire risk if hit from the side due to all the Hydraulics that runs through and around the turret basket, additionally the chances of the tank being able to fight back would be lower.

Could you share the source for that? It sounds like an interesting read.

[CHARM_3]

Yh but we have no evidence of it. We cant just imagine oe guess.

[Kyuss]

@AlvisWisla

They can only be applied to tanks that have them.

So most tanks at top tier do, the chally 2 is the exception so I understand if it doesn’t get one.

[DumpGorilla]

gaijin just cant admit that western systems are superior in any way and eastern stuff need big buffs to be even comparable to western ones.

Leclercs also lack turret baskets but I know you won’t cry about it because it doesn’t fit your narrative.

[Zahltag]

i dont have one but hearing the french the leclercs miss a lot more than just a basket

[MotorolaCRO]

You sure do.

[Zahltag]

uhh… no i dont have a leclerk

[Sweedish_Gunner]

I’d like the baskets removed/reduced massively in size so they’re comparable with other tanks, like before.

[MotorolaCRO]

No, but you have an agenda.

[Zahltag]

i have no reason to have a pro leclerc bias

[MotorolaCRO]

I’m not talking about pro-Leclerc bias.
