@@datcheesecakeboi6745 yeah it’s bullshit the FV4005 was designed to destroy a tank with 150mm of armour sloped at 60 degrees at 2000 meters basically the IS7 in testing the shell blew the turret clean off of a centurion mk3 and cracked mantlet of a conqueror and in game it doesn’t no damage at all
Cause he's from either Australia or New Zealand, meaning he's 13-17 hours ahead of Muffin, so he either just woke up early or is about to go to bed late.
It’s not as bad as it seems. At 8.7 it’s definitely very strong and almost invincible to bombs, but against tanks it’s definitely not invulnerable. It’s still got the breech/driver hatch/lower fp weakness as with most Russian cold war-modern vehicles, and at it’s br apfsds rounds and atgms can make short work of it.
Me when my shells ricochet off of it in an uptier and downtier. Doesn't meant I cant kill this thing, but there's been times where I stare in amazement.@@dominicdawsn3725
@@dominicdawsn3725 The fact it's invincible to bombs alone is grounds for it to be removed from the game, honestly. Tanks that have such imbalances just shouldn't be in the game for that reason. Balance. It's a joke if you don't have to worry about dying to something that literally everyone else has to. So that reason alone, it would be horrible as a regular premium. It's already laughably stronger than it likely was in reality and laughably better than it likely was in reality considering it's a Russian concept/prototype and they basically act like everything they've ever built was the best thing ever for it's time.
It was fun being part of the testing. Kind of sad we didn’t try out more torpedoes, the American MK16 and Japanese Type 93 torpedoes should have at least been tested since they are some of the best torpedoes, both got 900+ kg of tnt equivalent. Watching the video, I was surprised the 14 inch guns weren’t shown, I’m guessing we forgot to test it.
This tank was designed to withstand the shockwave of the blast of a nuke but to my knowledge it isn’t designed to survive a nuke or the aftermath in a close proximity to the site where the radiation is highly deadly
The tank is to survive the blast from a medium distance and be able to function in a wasteland as it can become airtight and filter well. Many Soviet tanks were designed “rad-proff”
The swamp tank was created with the aim of being used where conventional equipment would get stuck. That's how you can call Mouse a nuclear tank, because it's heavy
The concussion from most of those shells, especially the higher caliber HE, should alone be enough to liquidate the crew's internal organs, or at least make them feel like it did. Also, after more than one or two hits there would be no chance that the armor structurally holds up, and that's ignoring the kinetic energy transfer that would tweak the daylights out of anything that got hit directly, as well as pop any bolt and welds connected to the impacted plate... And on that note, I wish that War Thunder would introduce a new hull-break system or at least bring back the old one for RB and SB, because armor that has become Swiss-cheese no longer does its job as armor.
So its either a pixel hunt or some buggy machine gun overpressure or a 300mm ap round the size of half the tank itself from a battleship... who needs a nuke bunker when you can have the glorious bobject comrad
Try the Koln F220. It has Bofors M50 ASW/Depth charges, each one (rocket) is 107Kh HE equivalent, like a 250kg bomb. Would love to see them tested. Happy to volunteer as it's a pretty rare ship (top tier coastal cancer grind).
i imagine that even though the tank survived the hits, the sheer force of the impact would have rattled if not killed the crew, had it been a real life test.
half of these insane concepts feels like a designer was just sketching for fun and accidentally left the paper on his desk. the engineers then took it seriously and poured 10% of the soviet union's metal supply into a single tank
5 inch cannons would be equal to 127mm so basically an abrams main weapon plus extra 7mm so if you wanna do some damage I’d go 6-8 inch atleast (This is for real life btw a shell of 6-8inch of weight would destroy the tank)
ever thought about doing this with a parabolic trajectory for incoming fire? i can't think any application where a naval dreadnought would be direct firing a tank. Could be fun to try and film
