below-the-turret-ring.blogspot.co.at/2017/01/early-m1-abrams-composite-armor.html Definitely not classified, hard to find, but not classififed. M1A1 and M1A2 on the other hand are still totally classified.
It's great how you explain how HEAT shells react to composite armor but how would Sabot or APSDFS react? Would it just act the same as it would when shot against "regular" steel armor?
Pretty much, APDS is a solid rod penetrator, how APDS is modelled is technically incorrect, as the casing is discarded and leaves just a tungsten rod travelling at supersonic speeds. Buuuut, looking at the wiki, ERA can also dampen the effect of a rod penetrator such as that of Sabot, by disturbing the path and trajectory of the rod.
Gaijin i left wot in 2014 to come to war thunder even before you added ground forces and i´ve been playing your game regularly since then. I really love your game but please be considerate and let me have a more enjoyable grinding experience. I´m getting bored trying to get tier 4/5 vehicles. the plane grind is somewhat bearable but your requirements for tanks are just insane. Please if anyone of you guys at gaijin read this, i want to ask you for more variety in game modes for tanks and let us get late tier ground vehicles a little bit easier. I´ve always talked delights about your game and reccomended it to all my friends. Please, I think more of us will like to see this little changes instead seeing more top tier vehicles that makes us hopeless about getting there.
You know you have a better time grinding in warthunder then in wot? I hate wot for the they fact that I can only get a match with the chinese every 15 minutes. Then i die instantly to a camper. I am in Australia so its either waiting 4 years for a game on the australian server or its playing ageinst questionable opponets.
I've only played WT for like a month but its been one of the most fun, also I've enjoyed binge watching all of the episodes of the shooting range. Keep up the good work!! Thanks gaijin
Anton has basically already denied them, their armour composition is classified, it won't be modelled, instead I'd expect the MBT-70 for the US and the Kpz-70 for the Germans.
Dang, we're getting closer and closer to modern day tanks. The M60 was equipped with said reactive and has been used as recently as the gulf war. I hope to see modern vehicles at some point in this game. The attention to detail is absolutely amazing.
It will be interesting to see if the HEAT shells penetration loss after detonation will change after the patch. I somehow doubt a HEAT shell could perforate multiple targets IRL.
ERA was actually started in 1948 :) and ERA could withstand a rifle caliber round, .50 calss will cause it to react but a 7.7 would just bounce off the outer metal plate
The ERA looks kinda bullshit... i mean one shot will at most blow up 2 slabs if it's in the middle of em but 1 slab is meant for 1 shot... so why does 1 shot destroys 6????
My problem with ERA is that there´s no reports of 50.call´s destroying ERA bricks since they are pretty well made and robust, a 14.5mm HMG could do some damage but the 50. call not so much
Machine gun fire won't just blow them off... it may damage them, but they are pretty strong... I would say that being able to shoot them off looks a little too easy with just a couple bullets. About 50+ would be more realistic to completely dismantle ERA plates.
Xortsa ERA modules are protected by a frontal layer of steel or aluminium and ceramic, then there's military explosive which is not so sensible to simply detonate if you punch it.
From the Army Guide: "Special insensitive explosive has been developed to ensure that the panels can be handled, cut, drilled and welded without risk and that small arms fire and rough usage will not detonate them. When attacked by a hollow charge warhead the panels are so designed that there is no risk of sympathetic detonation of the other panels in close proximity." From Below the Turret Ring: "Blazer ERA uses an insensitive explosive filler, which does not detonate upon penetration by small arms and medium caliber ammunition up to 23 mm AP." From DRDO.GOV: "Immune to detonation against small arms ammunition and artillery shell fragments; No sympathetic detonation of neighboring panels when one panel explodes" From MSM Group, manufacturing a type of ERA: ""NEXREARM" has been tested against small arms ammunition (12.7 mm API-T), anti-tank rocket and missile (RPG-7 High explosive anti-tank, 9M113 Konkurz/AT-5 Spandrel), as well as 125 mm APFSDS and 125 mm HEAT ammunition. In addition, NEXREARM provides high level of protection against small arms, conforming to STANAG document." From the book Star 21: Strategic Technologies for the Army of the Twenty-first Century, page 10, it is explained that ERA is tested to be "insensitive to small arms fire and other explosively driven fragments." General Dynamics, producing STRAT 2 ERA for the Stryker vehicle, tests their durability against small arms. Now I could go on here, but that was all collected from a five minute google search.
Cro Gamer No, the Italians have already their own air Tech Tree, now for the Ground one their are thinking if it is better to add a LOT of paper tanks or if adding the Hungarian tanks.
Im so happy i mained the us. It hasnt even taken me 8 months of on and off playing the game and playing in other nations occasionally. 7.7 though on the march discount of this year I did get the t28 tutle. I would have been fine without it because of the m41a1 at 6.0 but it did help.
not the composite armour is the armour itself, it cant disapear, the ERA on M60 instead is an addition to the armor and this can disapear, so yeah T64 has a major advantage but considering it has way more armor than M60 it must have a higher BR, not even talking about the crazy 125mm gun
Best fix for tank grind imo is make a reset for the next era, where your first 9.0 tanks become the reserves, and you can upgrade as if you were going up the WWII tree the same way until a T-90 or M1A2 or maybe some current prototypes.
Those things what makes the tank fly...so it can shoot other tanks from above. In all seriousness they are for stopping heat rounds. So a heat round would hit those fin. and explode and lose all it penetrating power since the molten copper is flying through the air rather than working it way through the hull.
5 years veteran, mixed between free to play and premium, I'd say i had an year of premium added up, and still rank 3 with all nations, the best i could it's rank 4 with my fav nation... Realistically, if i wanted to play those tanks right now I should go back in time and play only a nation. Even more realistically, i need to spend some 200-300€ to boost my grind
GameJunkie not yet, but hopefully sooner than later. they will likely get the leopard 1a4 (had composite armor) or 1a5 (had a new APFSDS shell), or both!
Just to counter the occasional 8.7 matches I get with my newly bought Leopard 1(only got parts unlocked for now, researching FPE), I have to use the LekPz 41 from 6.3, since it's the only thing with post war rounds(also the Jagdpanzer 4/5, but it's Garbage). 6.3 tanks in 8.7, take a guess how I feel...
Michal Karwecki physically? lol bruh nothing is impossible if u rly like and enjoy the game btw i suggest u to play hello kitty its not physically hard at all hahaha
C3goExtremeforsure dude, just slap a talisman on a T5 tank, its like $15, and boom! easily grind a T6 over the weekend. unless you are a bad player, of course. in thay case, yeah, straight up rp conversion might be better lmao
To be specific, ERA defeats Chemical Energy munitions. IRL it has little to no effect on Kinetic Energy munitions (APFSDS). Shooting Russian ERA in game, with APFSDS, feels like you are shooting mulligan armor. ERA is not accurate in game.
Personally, i don't see how ground forces is such a grind, in order to grind properly you need to use the predecessor of the tank you are researching, and on top of that, you get research bonuses once you complete a row of upgrades. But nevertheless, i understand the frustration with the ground forces payouts.
Gayjin: Alright we made a ww2 game with huge balance issues what should we do? Do I hear "add soviet era and modern era armour and rounds and tanks"? This is why I am leaving war thunder...
This sounds like the M60A1 RISE will basically be curb stomped by the T-64 because over time the tank will eventually turn into just a normal M60A1 while the T-64 will keep it's composite integrity. But considering the MBT70 it's kind of going the pokemon route. You pick russians, you get HEAT resistance, you pick Germans or Americans you get APDS resistance. So it's kinda cool when you think about ut. Also, is Gaijin now gonna give that composite armor to the T95E1 now?
MBT-70/Kpz-70 have quite thin armour, all APDS at tier V and VI is going straight through them, their advantage is the 64 km/h, both forwards and in reverse.
You can't forget the gun though. It can shoot the Missiles too. The Armor should withstand APDS from 800 meters though. Though, in all honesty, to derail to the M60A1, I feel as if it's not actually going to be as effective as the mbt-70. Kinda like how the T34 was all rage but the T95E1 was basically an American Tank with ridiculous sloping making it very good armor. It's basically going to be the same here.
That withstanding APDS bit is nonsense, 38mm steel - air gap - 56mm steel angled at 60 degrees, that's the upper glacis of the MBT-70, turret is 36mm - air gap - 130mm angled at 53 degrees, it's garbage. It all depends on the APFSDS, the ATGM will be unable to harm a T-64A frontally (excluding the lower glacis).
E.R.A not useless until high caliber MG like M2 hit them but it still save you from the first shot if warthunder are making process on new era modern tank I hope it will add new type of vechiles and new maps for modern warfare to ^o^
Why not allow the ability to manually load shells? Since with this tier multiple shell types are recommended, it would be better to only load the shell when you are ready to attack to adapt to situations.
Never enough of Leopard tanks for me :D but i can't wait to see Leopard 2 and to be honest i would just love to see Yugoslavian M-84 tank :D but hey maybe some day it will happen :D
How will one be able to see the effective armor for different shells? Also, will there be a way to see the overall armor value on vehicles with spaced armor?
New armor types, yet the M60 and M48 still have the wrong gun mantle armor. Way to go Gaijin, keep adding new stuff instead of fixing long overdue problems.
I have a small problem, I usually get ranked about .3 or even 1.0 up a battle rating in EVERY battle. It's a little annoying when your little Sherman is trying to kill a t34-85. Or maybe am I just unlucky? But it's all cool 👌well not really
Is there a chance, since with composite armor we will have to carry more than one type of ammo, that once loaded a shell, we could be able to change it without shooting it and btw revealing our position? I don't think is possible right now, or am I wrong?
They really need to reduce the Grind to get that far up. Since the trees keep going. And unless you can spend 6-10 hours a day grinding or are willing to spend Realy money it grind can take FOREVER... especially if you want to get to highest tier for multiple nations.
“When you shoot at the ERA on a tank it’s purpose is fulfilled and will fall off in the game” Me, who’s shot the side of a turms that was lathered in ERA and having none of it fall off: yeah ima call bullshit chief
how about addding the option to double click type of ammo number to unload current round and reload new one? its just silly that we have to shoot a round to change ammo type
Welcome to Grind Thunder

Not if you are facing German tanks because German tanks don't have hmg.
they dont have MG but they have 7,6 reload time 105's that way enough
ORYG1N pretty much, that alone just made all their hard work worthless.
Tanks with ERA should be able to get "repairs" at captured points.
Welp, it can, does not mean it can easily destroy ERA.
If they'll make me fight an Abrams in my Tiger II, I'll quit the game.
James V. D. Bosch maybe, the XM1 Abrams only has a 105mm L7A1 or the M68

it won't be a abrams, it will be a t64a
Pffft Abrams tank versus your Tiger II...
More like the Tiger E facing T14 Armata.
It's great how you explain how HEAT shells react to composite armor but how would Sabot or APSDFS react? Would it just act the same as it would when shot against "regular" steel armor?

Firing Tungsten rods seems soooo stupidly expensive. Like firing Golden arrowheads.
on first gen composite armor, it only affects HEAT shell
so, on KE Projectile, the result should be the same
That's true but only for later ERA like the russian Kontact-5 for example. However early ERA only worked against HE shells.

Why ERA disappear?
No explosion?
Well it is WIP, maybe it exploding is something they are working on
more smokes i suppose
ERA explodes. That is why it disappears. They ERA gets hit by a bullet and self-destructs, taking the bullet with it.
Would look better if just the block blew up (and you lost it) not the entire section?
As soon as one block explodes, the others in the spot are destroyed too!

Shrapnel probably
They explosive so its what s happend when u shoot two explosive near each other?
They just blow up
Fabio then they would ALL react and explode moron! they are shapped charges like claymores it's different
LeNath DuNet those are first generation ERA charges, not that sophisticated, plus you gotta take into account the size of the explosive
Vlad if you seriously take this logic into account THEY WOULD ALL TRIGGER in chain!
My problem with ERA is that there´s no reports of 50.call´s destroying ERA bricks since they are pretty well made and robust, a 14.5mm HMG could do some damage but the 50. call not so much
Hey GAIJIN, explosives Rule!

I have a question. Does composite armour also disappear after a hit like ERA? Because if not then i think the t64a has a major advantage over the m60
No it doesn't

Ahahahaha. Good one.
It doesn't.
Nope it doesn't disappear because it's not add on armor but well.. what it is made of.
And yes the t64A will surely be better than the M60a1 rise p
You had the order or armor types mixed up by narration and tank shown. You were talking about composite armor on the M60, rather than its ERA plating.
I have a question, how I'm supposed to reach those tanks without GE or Premium things? D:
Marco Puma get a tier 5 tank that you like and are good with, and slap a $15 talisman on it. easily grind a T6 tanks in a weekend or two

Armor: well your useless tank to save
Why not allow the ability to manually load shells? Since with this tier multiple shell types are recommended, it would be better to only load the shell when you are ready to attack to adapt to situations.
I love this! can't wait to see what is the first German tier 6 tank :D
Never enough of Leopard tanks for me :D but i can't wait to see Leopard 2 and to be honest i would just love to see Yugoslavian M-84 tank :D but hey maybe some day it will happen :D
Can we take different versions of the same tank, with different armour versions into the game as modifications? That would be very cool
If this goes in the game do not make any requirements for it just maybe place a different limit on each tier
Not premium either
How will one be able to see the effective armor for different shells? Also, will there be a way to see the overall armor value on vehicles with spaced armor?
reactive armor seems interesting, i cant wait to try it
I'm happy this is being added but sad it's going to take forever to get tanks with it on them
Why didn't you model that the MBT/KPZ 70 in# destroyed if the ammo rack in the turret detonades?
what rank 6 tanks will you add for british? challenger 1 maybe?
Here is a question for The Shooting Range! Are Swedish Tanks considered being added?
ERA is effective against kinetic rounds, too.
But not as much as Composite
New armor types, yet the M60 and M48 still have the wrong gun mantle armor. Way to go Gaijin, keep adding new stuff instead of fixing long overdue problems.
Maus too and its been in the game longer :)
And shermans and US AP,APC,and APBC
So I guess the composite armor is more heavier but better in a way
please rework the sound of smaller caliber gun too. m4s 75 and 76mm sounds likefart
Awesome and really instructive video.
Are we gonna get the m8 greyhound
when do you plan to finish all or some of the bomber cockpits
i still cant get a T4 tank let alone T6 so this hole update means nothing to me till you can fix the SP system in tank RB
FYI New Reactive armor can not be triggered by machine gun fire ..
Learned something new today.. 👍
Can't wait for the update!
I have a small problem, I usually get ranked about .3 or even 1.0 up a battle rating in EVERY battle. It's a little annoying when your little Sherman is trying to kill a t34-85. Or maybe am I just unlucky? But it's all cool 👌well not really
Is there a chance, since with composite armor we will have to carry more than one type of ammo, that once loaded a shell, we could be able to change it without shooting it and btw revealing our position? I don't think is possible right now, or am I wrong?
When does new German Tanks come like the Leopard 1 A5 or the Leopard 2 A4
Leopard 2 A4 is classified, so no.
Or Leopard 1A5q
James V. D. Bosch what does it mean that is "classified"?
That it's armour performance is not publicly available, otherwise saying, there are no sources to model this vehicle off of.
James V. D. Bosch ohh, ok, thanks!
Why not both?

They really need to reduce the Grind to get that far up.
Since the trees keep going.
And unless you can spend 6-10 hours a day grinding or are willing to spend Realy money it grind can take FOREVER... especially if you want to get to highest tier for multiple nations.
“When you shoot at the ERA on a tank it’s purpose is fulfilled and will fall off in the game”
Me, who’s shot the side of a turms that was lathered in ERA and having none of it fall off: yeah ima call bullshit chief
how about addding the option to double click type of ammo number to unload current round and reload new one? its just silly that we have to shoot a round to change ammo type
They said no because to do that in real life.. it very dangerous to do so.
Have you ever thought about adding infantry
Just when are we gonna get the ME-262 HG line..?
I love this style of video
