NAYEONnaise 1,936 Report post Posted June 21, 2022 (edited) the ZTZ99A, despite being a new model with supposedly better protection than the 99-III, seems to be a direct downgrade in terms of UFP armor. 1. Why is the UFP weaker than the 99-III despite the near-similar ERA arrangement and hull angles? Reveal hidden contents Reveal hidden contents Reveal hidden contents 2. There is no weight reduction from the 99A that signifies armor loss. It also gained 4 tons from the new engine (ZTZ99-III: 51t, ZTZ99A: 55t), and maybe other factors. supplementary question: can anyone here verify the weight of the 12V150HB-1 engine by itself? 3. See below the comparison of the 99A and 99-III in terms of UFP protection vs. DM53-120-L55. 99A Reveal hidden contents 99-III Reveal hidden contents 4. Is it only really the 99A's turret that is covered with FY-5 (Relikt-like in terms of protection), and not the upper hull (currently only using FY-4)? For anyone experiencing the same issue, feel free to expound on this or provide publicly available sources to solidify this claim, and I might add these and credit those who do so, in this existing report: ZTZ99A has weaker UFP armor than ZTZ99-III // Gaijin.net // Issues For mods/devs who happen to go through this, feel free to provide an explanation why this is a phenomenon, for the sides to understand each other. Looking forward for this issue to be resolved/for sides to understand each other, NAYEONnaise Edited June 21, 2022 by NAYEONnaise 3 1 1 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
