_Kat_ze_ 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2023 I've been playing with ZTZ's tanks (especially the 11.0 tanks) and noticed how bad the armor is I decided to do a comparison between western armor and Chinese armor, looks like gaijin has some bias towards western tanks, some shots should be impossible, especially ERA I think ZTZ's armor performance sucks i'm sorry for bad english as it isnt my main tongue 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DeathBySnail 0 Report post Posted February 3, 2023 The type 99's composite armour does seem like the worst of the bunch for MBTs. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batwingsix 721 Report post Posted February 3, 2023 Yeah. the 1700 meter shot distance info has nothing to do with it at all either... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RycotSS 220 Report post Posted February 3, 2023 This has to be a troll post. I refuse to believe that someone is genuinely comparing a HEAT shell against the best APFSDS in the game and wondering why the APFSDS can pen composite while the HEAT can't. 2 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeathBySnail 0 Report post Posted February 5, 2023 Does the tank in game have the composite armor modeled correctly? I found this website that had a diagram showing what our best guess of the armor material looks like, does anyone have a better model with measurements?

Not to mention that the image is angled at the vehicles at an angle where that level of protection being shown is worthless since you will never be shooting any tank in a position where you would see them at that angle so the armor effectiveness being shown isn't even showing either tank from the front so they aren't even being shown the relevant protection that you would actually be dealing with. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
