I am adding more evidence because I’m losing my mind.
These armor plates are nearly identical. Given that they are known to be the same armor type, and appear to have the same rough thickness, they should provide similar armor in-game.
Spoiler. They do not.
Even with Gaijin’s poor modifiers for Israeli composites, this would still be an astronomically huge buff to the Namer.

knowing it has extra armor also, we can assume its supposed to have ~350mm KE and ~1000mm CE side armor(thats according to gaijin logic of course)

well that depends, there are 2 main options:
- report will be forgotten and nothing will change
- they will ask for historical proof?

Stop it, it’s pointless, we have the Ariete featuring still ridiculous air pizza armor, the Merkava that looks like is made of plastic and you’re asking them to fix the namer? Please be serious, be happy for what you got
its hard to be happy with apc that doesnt perform like it should be and lacks the protection its supposed to have
plus now that they butchered the spikes again its even worst

Nah screw that. I’m not going to pretend like I’m happy with getting another botch/gimp job IFV implementation.

You’re wasting your time then, the Ariete lower plate can be penetrated by a panzer iv F2, it’s been years and they didn’t fix it
I’d rather fall trying than give up along the way.

1500HP MT883 engine used on Namer

which Namer?
Theoretically, all Namer (determined by the number of engines purchased)
Interesting, in my service, we were told the Namers had 1200 hp engines. Only recently the Namer 2 was announced, with a 1500 hp engine. And thats just the APC variant. There are no IFV Namers in IDF service as of now, unfortunately.
For those still invested, I have made a new Forum Post addressing the new Namer. I appreciate everyone for helping bring this issue to light.

It has been locked for reasons I was not given. Oh well.
Anyway, here’s the new Namer still completely missing its internal side composites.

Who the hell makes the armor models for Israel??? With such armor on the Namer in-game it wouldnt survive a rocket that got destroyed by the APS even 10 meters away, makes NO SENSE AT ALL
