sadly currently they seems to modeled VT-5 to a fully light tank. the protection map is from nato 30mm apfsds.

Gaijin hates Chinese tanks. Even a 12.7mm gun can pen the LFP now. Anything else changed?

I don’t think the armor values are finished yet, they only changed the materials.
they have changed almost every armor’s value compared to last dev server, I guess these values are not meaningless.
the x-ray should be unfinished
RHA or Aluminum?
and the ammos are at wrong place, not matching the blow-out panel, take the place of electronic devices bay.

Instead of adding composite armor in the turret gaijin decided to make its armor paper thin 😑. Do you have any official document that mentions VT-5’s armor protection?
-5 elevation while the breech can still rise to a maximum of -7, which is aberrant for a tank that is used in the mountains

@WaretaGarasu Is the armor values for the VT-5 final or is it bugged? If this is final, can you share the source that developers used for modelling the armor?
Hello.
The Armor Values are work in progress, any report about it would be helpful as always.

Yeah I expected as much, no way the turret composite should be less effective than rubber.
Anyone know what’s the resolution of VT-5’s thermal sight in the game? It should be 1280×1024 according to a document.
I dont have dev server downloaded, can you submit the bug report? I can DM you the screenshots of that document.
I can, though I’m not sure how to get current resolution without through datamine which is not accepted.
Lets hope its placed into the correct location under the blowout panel when the autoloader is added.
Slight improvement

It is better than you think, like other Chinese top tier MBTs the turret is angled slightly downwards (by around -2 degrees), actual depression is around -7.4 degrees.
Still though, there is more space for the gun breech at -5.4.

I’m considering that is it possible to issue this by comparing VT-5 to other tanks that has similar extra roof space, like Cockerill 3105 turret, to make it has more gun depression
