They are indeed deadass
Just @ them.
M829A3 would be overpowered. There is zero reason to add it currently. What does need to change is that APFSDS hitting ERA at a flat angle should be unaffected by the ERA.

Yet it won’t change, unfortunately
LOL! M829A2 has never once struggled to pen the side. Stop lying about American equipment.
There is zero evidence of ERA over-performing. Keep claiming NATO are liars, all you do is claim NATO are liars…
@SiberianSnakeSIB
Relikt gets its protection bonus from being angled.
It’s why Relikt is used in bags mostly so it can be angled.
M829A3 would just be DM53+ L/55 pen on a L/44 cannon

there is. T-80/T-72/T-90/other shit should get like 1/2 or 1/4 or UFP ERA exploded, even if only one got hit. construction is too weak and just bends(causing smth like chain reaction)
K-5/relict
so sad that NATO ERA is severely underperforming
NATO ERA doesn’t use flyer plates so its KE protection will always be bad.
Its CE protection is different from statcard claims and statcards can’t be used to show protection.
Kontakt 1 is less than half as effective as French ERA for example.
you dont need flyer plates to do so.
take look at NIZH for example - no plate needed, it just cuts the shell.
Spoiler
Well the NATO ones were really just designed for side protection against RPGs. As seen they were never mounted on anything but the sides (except M60 stuff)
I’ve experienced that
No, you’ve experienced aiming badly and hitting roof armor which is universal on all tanks.
ERA does eat rounds but its Gaijin modelling where multiple ERA are ‘stacked up’ statistically and that results in something like 500 mm ERA instead of its actual performance.
It has gotten better or maybe I just play top tier ground that much less.
so if you put Contact-5 and Relict in angled position, only Relict will have x1,5 protection bonus ?
BRENUS ERA still lacks its historical 100mm of KE protection

Relikt has superior angled performance than K5, that is correct.
yeah but that doesnt mean they have 0 ke protection
stuff like the TES ERA has the ability to withstand 30mm apfsds by itself
With an Anti-ERA tip. We don’t need that added to the game.
ig
i wish they gonna buff NATO era one day tho, i dont think even to the slightest that sth add on weight 5 tons but only offer 20% better protection than cold war ERA
