I am serious. I get annoyed at how bad cm spotting can be and I feel like battles aren't as immersive if I can only see one side. I love watching both sides hammer away at each other. I'm just having fun here

I used to only play on Iron. Now I play on scenario test mode and turn off icons ingame. This works much better with a smaller force obviously
-
Also, What's up with the turrets anyway? These look like theyre straight off the T-90A. I thought T80 turrets were similar to T72, sharing the boob shape. Thanks guys.
-
What? We bought T80s? Also to confirm - T84M are the ones represented in the game. They have the same hull and a new turret? As opposed to the T80 which is pictured above? I knew only the UK verson had shtora which added to my confusion. I was under the impression Ukraine kept the T84M's at least. They seem a little overrepresented in the game all of a sudden.

Want to see the T-72B3's glacis armor construction?

Excellent. Thanks John. -
I had thought the tanks in the image were T80's with shtora.

Only five in service or only five modernized or what!?

I've made sure to help John along his way to reaching his personal nirvana.

I found this link today: https://www.reddit.com/r/Warthunder/comments/830d70/the_source_bomb_on_modern_tanks_just_dropped/ Which referred me to these two: https://cloud.mail.ru/public/FVLe/iUZw87trH http://sturgeonshouse.ipbhost.com/topic/1395-contemporary-western-tank-rumble/?page=5&tab=comments#comment-124945 Both of these have a ton of information on modern MBT armor, the latter especially.

Is this a Command And Conquer reference?
-
So we are seeing a similar armor configuration to the Merkava. Thank you IMHO, I've never known what the actual Merkava turret looks like. A very smart design. Thanks Squarehead as well, everything is starting to make sense now (Besides the heavy focus on networking).
-
I just dont understand how the tank costs more than the beefier heavier tanks. I figure Western armor is significantly stronger considering the weight. Better networking? Indiginous barrel? Do these really justify the cost? I had already known about these stated facts. My guess is it comes down to: We will see a lot of improvement in Japanese military technology in the coming years considering the recent ratification of their constitution.
-
So hey. What's so special about the Type 10? What justifies the cost of this thing? Is the nano crystal armor really worth a damn? The tank is like 50 tons. Can somebody shed some light please?
-
I apologize, I had seen "copters" and overlooked "quad".
-
I feel like this would only supplement current AA tech considering its only a direct LOS weapon.
-
With the scarcity of modern FLIR systems on Russian tanks, I highly doubt they will even see their enemy before being knocked out. Of course I speak for the many tanks which have been left in storage. Thermal scopes have dramatically altered warfare.
