Then what is this standart reload claim in the first place?
Modules eat spall.
It’s just a game mechanic.
Just like volumetric, APHE mechanics and so on.
Deal with the skill issue
driver, autoloader, engine
I was talking about all toptier MBTs. I thought that was pretty clear
5s reload is standard for most of them with exceptions being T-series, leopard and type 90/10s
Autoloaders eat spalls without exploading ?
Only russian autoloaders are capable of such prowess
The autoloader itself isn’t explosive
Same way shooting a barrel doesn’t make it explode.
The entire autoloader isn’t full of ammunition either.
Last I checked ammunition is stored in two parts as well.
Ivan very strong, russian engines best engines in the world
Both immuned to weak NATO APFSDS
Lets see which top tier tanks has 5 second reload in standart, Answer is none.
Without ace crew (which you either have to pay real money or play that spesific tank for a good amount of time) you will get 5.3 second at best.
Abrams,Merkava4’s,Ariete’s and are the only top tier tanks that has 5.3 second constant ROF, I’m not gonna include Challengers because of their abysmal small first stage and the time it takes to replenish it.
So yeah only 3 tanks actually gets 5.3 second consistent reload time.
?
Shooting Russian tanks in the back is an almost guaranteed one-shot (even with HSTVL)
Abrams, of which there are 7 top-tier level variants (12.0+)
Multiple merkavas
Multiple Leclercs
Yeah no, 5.0 aced and 5.3 expert is standard
T-80 6s reload is very much middle of the road and T-90’s 7s is just bad
Oh yeah the autoloader full of ammunition isn’t explosive itself, if you shoot at the 5% area where the autoloader isn’t filled it won’t explode, if you hit a charge it won’t explode, if 95% of the spalls get eaten by the autoloader and the 5% remaining hit an ammunition it won’t explode, … I know the drill
You shoot at a NATO autoloader, anywhere (up down left right, ammunition or no ammunition where the shell hits) → instant explosion
It is what it is, I guess West weak Russia stronk
Uh-huh
Ig NATO makes autoloaders out of TNT now
There’s only one autoloaded NATO MBT at top tier as well
So are we counting each tanks as seperate in top tier?
Thats the most stupid thing I read for a while.
You dont count them individually, you count them as single unit.
Also 12.0 Abrams doesn’t count as top tier, whether you like it or not.
Gosh…
And I’m a french main, so when I tell you Leclercs’ autoloaders explode wherever they get hit from in the said autoloaders, it’s true lol
Leclerc, Type-10 and even Centauro-2 be like: bruh.
Yes the autoloader are supposed to explode whenever hit, what’s next? The driver isn’t supposed to steer the tank? What @MiGoon_Fox-3 said is that autoloaders are a module by itself it doesn’t explode, the projectiles/charger inside it explodes sometimes knocking the vehicle out like in a T-80 or not like in the Centauro II (P) with blow-out panel.
Fine
Abrams - 5s (aced), 5.3 (expert)
Leopard 2 - 6s (aced), 6.4 (expert iirc)
Ariete - 5s (aced), 5.3 (expert)
Challenger - 5s (aced), 5.3 (expert)
Leclerc - 5s
T-80 - 6.4s (with 3BM60), 6s everything else
T-90 -7s
OPLOT - 7s
Type 10 - 4s
ZTZ99A - 6.7s
Merkava - 5s (aced), 5.3s (expert)
Fine
Standard reload is approx ≈ 6s
Japan isn’t in NATO
It’s a light tank
Not an mbt
Love the reading comprehension

Do you have proof of this
Pretty much everything western and non-Leopard gets either 5.3s or faster reload speed.
M1s, Merks, Arietes, Leclercs, Type 10s.
Leopards have 6.36s reload on Expert crew.
Chinese and RU tanks are slower to reload than that and their reloads can’t be classified as “really good”.
