∆ What he said.
Worth noting the crew all survived - which would not have been the case if the tank went boom instantly.
Metal can be replaced easily, trained men cannot.

First of all wet ammo stowage doesn’t work except to slow down the lightest of fragments
Secondly, CR2 has no wet ammo stowage. Just 25mm thick armored bin walls
Crew survived because the vehicle was abandoned then later destroyed by an ATGM which made the vehicle explod
It’s 68 degrees on the armor plate
Trajectory of the round???
Really? We are talking about a 1400m+ m/s APFSDS round not a 600m/s howitzer
Even if you change to a 1 degree fall of shot so the impact angle is 67 degrees, it’s still nowhere near close to pentrating at 2000m, it can barely achieve it at 500m
It’s 69 degrees when looking straight down the barrel, as the barrel is -1 degree in resting position.
I don’t really care with respect to the barrel. I care with respect to the armor plate, which is 67 degrees (68 degrees in my first picture)
there is this thing that is called volumetric and no i never said this is bias its just bugs
while the nato bomb may be “cherry picked although its literally happens with every Russian tank I bombed” while I was in my kv 2 which has less armor than a leo 2a4 and had 1000lb bombs land right next to me and my tracks wouldn’t even brake I got bombed 3-5 times.

Probably because KV2 doesnt have weak areas like the place upper of tracks, where armour is little to nothing, while KV2 has 75mm everywhere, and both belly and roof are thick enough. Leo2A4 doesnt have that armour.

Played low-tier recently around the T-34 scourge? Ever noticed how the 85mm guns seemed to manage to perform waaaaaaaaaay above their peers thanks to the slope modifiers that Gaijin accidentally programmed in?
It’s not just the 85mm, it’s all Russian APBC. It was bug-reported years ago by Conraire before he became a tech mod. And it’s not an accident it’s “Working as intended”.

There is no Russian Bias?
There is one nation in game that has:
- 50% better Top SPAA then all other nations since more the a year
- 10km range SPAA on BR 10.7
- the best ground SPAA @10.0 with IR missles
- the only SPAA’s that can fire a missle until moving
- a primium with optical guiding and approxy ammonition
- most penetration in game (on the low BR of 10.0)
- All important moifications (thermal, laserrangefinder) in the 2nd row
- the best ATGM for ground vehicles (khrizantema)
- the only vehicles that can shoot missles while moving
- best IR Missles on planes
- best Radar missles on planes
- best Air to Ground Laser missles for planes
- best ATG TV missles for planes
- the best IR missles stock on the high tier planes
- with 20pcs, the most ATG missles on a plane (SU25T and SU39)
- the best ATG (and anti everything) missles with 10km range on helicopters
and
most broken ERA in game, that eats constantly APDFS shells (also from the side)
non exploding ammorack speecially on their T-80’s
non exploding fuel tanks
most untertiered vehicles on the 10.0 lineup
most modern and still not in service vehicles
with a russian plane u can fly home without a wing, with others u crash if a wing dip is damaged
with a heavily damaged russian heli u can still fight or fly home, with all others u crash
There are 10 nations in the game but it is so obvious that one nation receives more love and is systematically favored. I don’t know if there is a correlation, but since the war in Ukraine, it has been getting worse and has taken on new dimensions.

Yeah anyone suggesting this game isn’t heavily skewed in favour of Russia has their head in the sand. It would be fine if it were just for gameplay reasons to make the game fun, but that isn’t the case.

There is no Russian bias at anything but high tier. If Russian bias was an issue, it wouldn’t only affect a handful of tanks or aircraft.
Even most examples can be attributed to buggy/inconsistent mechanics or premium bias.
Same thing happens to Tigers, Panthers, and anything else with a plate like that.
NATO cope knows no bounds.
US/Sweden top tiers are better if we exclude SPAA vehicles.
Despite the suppose 32g overload, missiles lack the engine booster to perform hard turns. 9M311 can be dodge by subsonic strikers like the A6, there a reason why the Strela is more common.
And the utility of this is?
VEAK 40/M247 are not only better, but more oppressive as SPAAs. Very few CAS aircrafts (those with RWR or guided ordinance) can counter them at their respective BRs (8.7/9.0).
AIM-9M>>>R-73. Add the fact that-for some reason-top tier russian fighters are flying bricks, the affirmation becomes more laughable (since they can’t exploit the true potential of the R-73)
And the utility of this is? Only a fool would use Vikhrs on a fixed-wing without thermals or good zoom.
On the current meta, SPIKES are better dealing with ground targets (especially SPAAs) and helicopters. Also, Vikhrs true range is 8km for heights lower than 1.5km over the sea level.
I suppose you rarely play russian MBTs to make this claim, since fuel tank explosions are the most common cause of dead for T-64/72/80/90s.
F-16C, Mirage 2K-5F, Gripen, Spikes, buffs to most NATO MBTs…The URSS literally is on his worst moment in quite a while.

False premise
volumetric laughs at you
Your statements are worthless.
In contrast to you, I play all nations and not just Russia and China. You’re just trying to justify it to yourself; playing Russia is like playing the game on beginner mode if you know how to play Russia. You talk about how good spikes are, but you’ve never played it yourself and seen how inconsistent and slow they are. As a Russia main, of course you want to defend your nation, but I enjoy playing all nations and don’t want to play only Russia because the game is currently very unbalanced.
