It’s intended behaviour. You wouldn’t hear a t80 100m in front of you if it’s facing you headon
ariete is much worse. same br as the 2a7 with worse mobility, worse gun and worse armor

*Laughs in Merkava which loses engine and one shot most of time from engine spall anyway every .5 seconds *
‘Laugh from the other side’ ZTZ99A fixing the gun breech for half the game. ( this is literal, I had to fix my gun breech 7 times in a single game lasting 10 minutes)

I agree, but the russian tanks are designed that way so that it suffers from less shots. The engine noise I have no idea of, since I have only seen footage with engine noise from inside the tank. The Chinese ZTZ99A is just a mix of NATO size and mobility with Russian gun and auto loader. (weak spot as well) It is very similar to the M1A2 in actual performance in game, but I do agree the russian tanks are way too quiet.
LOL i just stat card checked you because i doubted that you actually have a top tier american m1 and i was right, your best tank is a kvt and you’re k/d is 0.5 530 deaths with only 300 kills thats so goofy, let the grown ups talk bro

He’s not wrong though, the M1’s are generally superior to equal BR Russian tanks.
- M1 > T-72AV / T-80B
- M1A1 > T-80UM / T-90A(?)
- M1A1 AIM / HC / Click-Bait > T-72B3 / T-80U
- M1A2 SEP > T-80BVM / T-90M
Pot calling the kettle black much?
You’re in a similar boat as he is, your highest BR Russian tanks are the BMP-2M, T-72AV TURMS-T and Moderna.
All of which hover around a winrate in the 30s and 40s percentages, and two of which are on a negative K/D.

Nyet, comrade. Abrams turret neck is susceptible to IFV and AA gun fire. This is common knowledge. Mother russia is simply better.
HAHAH goofy ahh dude thought u ate with this argument? you looked at my russia lineup 1 my moderna is stock 2 so is my bmd4 3 did you only look at my russia? because none of my top tanks are russian 💀💀💀💀 all of my top tanks are actually top tier unlike yours, you just stat pad and seal club at lower tiers and the only tanks i see of yours that have been played are the most unbalanced ones, you arent one to talk
Your argument would be stronger if you talked like a normal human and not a twitch commenter.
My top 10 most played vehicles:
Okay, now I see what level I’m dealing with.
Nevermind then.
those are all low tiers, and 2 low top tiers neither of which are in the same league as actual top tier lol i seal club at 10.3,
look lil bro maybe you should have got involved in an argument that didnt involve you if you didnt want to finish it
You don’t seal club at 10.3, you just club the 10.3 low level premium players lol.

Seal clubbing accusations are only somewhat valid if the person primarily played below 3.0. Anything higher is not seal clubbing.
M1A1, Leo 2a4 and Leo 2k are all low tier tanks. I’ve heard it all at this point. First theres a guy crying that his plane gets destroyed when hit by AA, and now the M1A1 is considered a low tier tank.
You keep throwing 1986 out like that is correct. The first M1A1 started production in 1986, the first M1A2 to even be tested was in 1988 under the plan to upgrade the M1A21, then production of said M1A2 wasnt even approved for production till 1990. 1986 was just prototypes of the M1A1 slowly being upgraded the M1A2 designation wasnt even thought up at that point they were still high fiving after getting the M1A1 into production
this is incorrect, just because two things look the same doesnt mean whats under the hood is the same. Composite tech has had a massive uptick in tech in the past 30 years

You my friend would be sadly mistaken. What causes the round to shatter is the sheer speed mixed with the alloy smacking said angled armor creating cracks in the alloy or bends(even if it bends its gonna crack) from there the chances of major penetration is low due to the round essentially losing structural integrity. You can even test this on the shooting range using a thin piece of aluminum or steel(yes two different alloys and the rounds are different, but you cant get the jest of it), now i wouldnt advise just going and shooting a piece of aluminum people can get hurt. Heck just a slight angle change can mean the entire round either bounces or shatters.
Two things, one they are of much higher density so through thin outer metal layers at below 50-60 degrees plastic shearing is a lot more likely, even at high angles reminder the outer steel layer is really thin on modern tanks, and due to the gaps in chobham and most composite layouts means it is not just a block but can bend as well so the high velocity projectile would not bounce off as easily.
Secondly have anyone heard of composite material can be applied to apfsds rounds?
