I know you love talking about stuff you barely have a clue about, but it’s pretty obvious that the 2A6 shouldn’t be 12.7.
There isn’t enough of a difference between the 2A5 and 2A6 to justify a higher BR.

If anything, the 2A5 is a sidegrade since the longer barrel can be shot and destroyed more easily, especially when poking out from a corner.
The extra penetration also doesn’t really offer any benefit other than UFP T-80Us more easily, ammo-racking Leclercs through their turret cheeks, and creating more spall on occasion.

You are the one spreading misinformation lol. I copied this straight from the 2A5 devblog from back in the day:
“Beneath these modules, however, you will find the same combined turret armour that the previous versions of the Leopard are equipped with, but with more advanced filler between plates. The turrets front sides keep your vehicle well protected on their own - with up to 600 mm of protection against kinetic rounds, and up to 850 mm against chemical shots.”
So you are making some wild and uneducated leaps by assuming that a 2A5 turret without the arrowheads is the same as a 2A4.
if it is 600mm against kinetic then DM53 and M829A2 should go right through

At close range and head on yeah maybe/probably, but I think at further ranges and at weird angles it can get a bit more inconsistent.
