My game version: (2.13.0.53)

# Platform

PC/Steam

# Description

the ERA bricks specially on the hull side of the T-64B, T-72B and T-72 TURMS show a value far less than the combination of RHA plus the ERA brick's defence value.

This causes the HEATFS rounds to easily pierce the tank on the side and destroy it.

# Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Launch the protection analysis for any of the T-64B, T-72B or T-72 TURMS

2. Angle to the side and choose any of the ERA bricks covering the ammunition rack on the hull side

3. Choose Leopard 1 from German tech tree (BR 7.3)

4. Select the DM12 shell (400mm of pen)

5. Fire the shot, and the shot will go through causing ammo rack and tank's destruction

6. Value shown for the spot is 370~379 mm of protection in protection analysis, however;

   1. The X-RAY shows the protection value of the ERA brick to be 400mm

   2. The Armour shows the hull side to be 85mm of RHA

   3. 400mm + 85mm = 485mm of protection, not 370mm!

# Additional Information

RHA of hull side value = 85mm:

 

ERA protection = 400mm:

 

Protection against DM12 HEATFS = 370mm:

 

DM12 will ammo rack the tank:
