Why do russians get apfsds at 8.3?

Im not getting into this thread properly, CBA for that. but…

Whilst technically true Britain gets an APFSDS shell at 8.3. Its on a light tank compared to the soviets medium tank. Britain doesnt get APFSDS on a medium tank till the Chieften Mk10 at 9.0.

It’s on a Centurion unless it’s 8.7 now.

Every medium caliber apfsds is crap m-41d , rooikat , aubl, half of french tt

Olifant Mk. 1A has M111 (DM23) at 8.3.

Germany gets APFSDS at 8.3 in M48A2 G A2.

And what do you mean can barely pen T-55A?

Yep, missed that one. Though I barely pay attention to the SA line msot of the time

No Centurion has APFSDS… Its not untill the Chieftain mk10 at 9.0 that a tank in that line gets APFSDS L23 round.

Before that, including both Chieftain Mk3 and Mk5, are APDS

I know F all about SA vehicles. Didnt realise that the “olifant” was a modified Centurion.

Still, its the Olifant in game not Centurion.

if you ever played it, it has horrible post pen, which is to be expected

I do play it. Its post-pen is within expectations so it’s fine.
People should train with 90mm APCR and they’ll get better with everything else as well.

man you said it on the first phrase, a modified centurion is still a centurion.

If you know nothing about the SA line. Then you’d know it as the Olifant not as a Centurion. I had to google it to check and saw it was a Centurion. Until that moment, it was an Olifant not a modified centurion…

Its not exactly called the “Centurion Olifant” in game

you dont need to go to wikipedia… you dont even need to click into the vehicle, just hovering in the vehicle and you will see that it is a centurion.

I have never done that though. I have 0 interest in the SA vehicles and have never really even bothered looking at them, not too mention research or play them

just because you dont pay attention to them doesn’t mean that it exist dude. And just because youre dont know something doesnt make other wrong…

I appologise for not knowing every single tank in the game off by heart

No hate, but if you don’t know the vehicles, then you can’t really comment authoritatively and say 'no vehicle gets APFSDS until …"

It’d be like if I (a non-air player) just picked the only jet I know and said “this is the first jet with AAMs” and then said “well sorry I don’t know all the jets, I don’t care about them!”

I looked through them and I only saw it on the light tank. missed the Olifant. Off the top of my head I know that the british Centurions dont and its not until the 9.0 Chieftain. I figured that British Tank + APFSDS = 9.0+ and if its sub 9.0 its probably not a medium tank. But I forgot the devs hate Britain

I’m telling you for the second time, if you don’t remember something exactly, don’t write anything about it.
