They can’t stand the fact that they’d have to actually try if the Abrams was fixed, that or just pure hatred for the US. This game would be defunct overnight without US players lmfao

I love it when people mention Desert Storm when talking about the M1 Abrams. Go ahead, put the M1/A1 at 9.3, see how it goes. The Abrams’ reputation is inflated so much because of them fighting much inferior tanks, like T-72A’s and T-55’s.
As if all USA players only research USA tech tree and play nothing else
Pretty much. Few can deny that there are issues with USA at top-tier, for example:

But it has nothing to do with the Abrams itself.
I’m sorry if US propaganda has gotten into your heads about a tank that is quite subpar to the Leopard 2, and one that had its development stunted because the country spent decades using it to try root out insurgents, rather than to face off against the weapons it has to face at top-tier (In WT, Abrams has to face off against CAS elements that can take it out from many KM away - not a problem seen in Desert Storm/Iraqi freedom, while also facing opposition tanks who have access to much more modern rounds with penetration values which can and will dispatch of the Abrams - not to mention the abundance of other weapons available to other sides that can melt you). Having a high kill ratio against some Iraqi’s who could hardly find the reverse gear in their tank and were often firing obsolete projectiles at targets they probably had no hope of seeing most of the time, due to their lack of support, adds nothing to your arguments to buff the Abrams. It’s just being petty, like how I mentioned Ukraine (where most vehicles are simply taken out by drones and artillery - and Abrams/Chally were quite unsuited for the terrain and operated in outdated assaults which had no hope of succeeding).

Can the tank crew manually select the turret when the hydraulic pump is damaged? I’m going crazy with the problem with the hydraulic pump.
And what about DU armor?
its that time of the year again for another abrams post.

please tag your post with one of the ground related tags. thanks
what does that matter? there are problems with many tanks at top tier including eastern designs like ztz99a not having enough turret face armor. issues should be fixed wherever possible and a lot of these bug reports have been accepted.

Just don’t tell me it was from Abrams fire. Abrams are so pathetic that everyone hides in ditches and basements.
yes I do, you got a problem with it? (LMAO This is actually true in my case, It just feels weird to play anything except the US for me probably cause I’ve always liked ww2 Korean war and vietnam history)
He didn’t state anything on DU, no?
Drone warfare changed everything. The costs of a tank loss is not worth it. Both Abrams and T-series are obsolete with the Russian/Ukrainian war. Abrams/Challenger/Leopards are useless with the terrain in Ukraine. I think this is the end of tank on tank combat imo.
What with all the whataboutism ? OP didn’t post any things against other tanks that should be fix.
He only ask When will Abrams bug report are going take effect ingame. (aka being fix)
And he only make a little joke about “Desert Storm”. He didn’t complain about Abrams being suck and need buff or reduce BR . Why are people getting triggered by this ?

The desert storm comment was in response to a post that was removed saying the Abrams is bad or whatever. I said that because the actual history of the Abrams says otherwise.
Thank you for understanding. It was only a question of when.
Simple: If Gaijin likes American vehicles they’d fix it right away, but sadly they most likely hate’s America. Due to our freedom
battle of 73 Easting (i think)
US Abrams: 0 loses
IRAQ Tanks: 160 loses

To main op questions . Gaijin are alway being inconsistent when it come to bug report. As some issue get fix within month some issue took years.
No worries
In the future Tank would have to roll out with it own Anti drone weapon (proximity fuse round on 30mm cannon like the one on Abrams X for example) and with hard kill APS as a standard kit.
For the time being they would have to work close with SHORAD units.

we need a riot to get our way. Like when we had a riot in the CIS over the change in cumulative shells. But there weren’t enough of us
