Out of all the tanks you struggled penetrating and causing a lot of damage to the challenger 2 is the only one that's realistic. It's the only tank there that's been heavily battle tested and hit with major anti tank weapons. The Russian fluff is just Gaijin bias nonsense.
@@SahiPie spot on, i was referring to the fact that the infamous roof panels for the ammo on the Abrams, and the American design focus on survivability with the choice to use a loader and have bulkheads and firewalls with suppression systems. The loader helps to replace a crew member as well in situations, along with the fact that it (m1 mbt) should be able to take a few slugs before you can do nothing. vs the russian mbts which are extremely compact and low profile with an auto loader and exposed ammo, leading to their incredibly famous burn rates. as well as general lack of bulkheads and thought into what happens if it gets hit, and more on it won’t get hit it’s tiny. so in the game it should really only take 1 well placed shot to disable a t72 say. meanwhile the abrams is made of play-Doh. lol though it is a game and realism would make it even more like hell. but i do think that there is a significant amount of Ruskie bias as i grinded both USA and Germany og t34s would break down before they ran out of fuel. as well as their notoriously finicky angles armor and the dreaded drivers hatch, one too many times i’ve had a successions of well placed ap round just doink from concealment. and also to consider the fact that US and other western nations have a higher standard of maintence and performance, as well as logistics overall, as we are seeing in ukraine. not a huge problem they still have tunnel vision but it would be nice if the snail could stop jerking off tankies.
Hey Odd, if you are allowed to order booze online in the UK, some recommendations for American beer that isn't watery piss: Lager Heads brewing has some tasty offerings, and Great Lakes Brewing's Edmund Fitzgerald Porter is a dark, malty meal in a mug. Founders Brewing has a Breakfast Stout that will give Samuel Smith's a run for its money. As for non American beers, Weihenstephaner Korbinian is a must, and Harviestoun Old Engine Oil would probably not go amiss... Much love, from a guy who probably takes his beer a little bit too seriously... After all, it's like focusing on Johnny Walker when Ardbed, Laphroaig, and Glenfarclas exist... Or saying English tea is flavorless when all you've tried is Tetley, when Taylor's of Harrogate's Scottish Breakfast Tea is waiting to be discovered. (I just bought a 1 kilo bag of the stuff, it's so damn good!)
It's because the M1A2 in the game is the original M1A2, from 1986. Gaijin seems to refuse giving it appropriate glacis armor (only the ORIGINAL M1 Abrams had 350mm lower glacis armor equivalent, M1A1 and up have minimum of 700mm effective), but Gaijin also refuses to give the Abrams it's modern upgrade packages like SEP V1, SEP V2, SEP V3, or TUSK I, TUSK II. Gaijin tries very hard too make American tanks not good. I digress. That would explain the Thermal thing; the M1A2 is using thermals from 1986, while the M1A1 AIM is Australians brand new upgrade package from (2017?) I believe.
It’s a really cool tank but since the addition of it the American team has become much worse in terms of team strength, it’s an amazing tank at what it does but the people who buy it don’t understand top tier as well as they can’t progress the tech tree using it unless they’re at rank six already. Cool tank, in the hands of the wrong people
u cant progress the tech tree anyways anymore theyve taken the RP out of the game unless ur using a booster or have premium rank 4 without booster u can barely break 2k RP
I was a noob that bought the xm 1 and I went through the pain of learning top tier as a new player but now with 400 hours on the game I got it down pretty good. Lately though I haven’t mailed ground RB been having so much fun in air RB. Air RB with jets is so much better than with monoplanes just because of how much faster they get to the battlefield

sadly the APFSDS problem is with more rounds, try the dm33 of the rooikat on a premium leo 2a4 and you will see that you get almost no shrapnell and with the KE-W in my experience its a 50/50 chance of shrapnel most common is that russian MBTs dont get shrapnell so usually i shoot the breach and than pick their crew appart, sad that this bug excists now

How do you always get teams of opponents allowing those kinds of manouvers? Whenever I play, I always have a blind team with just one tank in the lineup, and the opposition is literally always both organized and have multiple vehicles. I want whatever match making mod you're running :P
Can you play the L-62 (i think its called) its the Swedish bathtub at 2.7. The shrapnel is soooo good, and when it comes to the heavier targets like the B1 or a T50 just shoot the Cupola you’ll kill them in 2-3 shots easy. You can 1 shot panzers easy. I can definitely see this tank going up in BR for sure
Kind of funny and stupid how Sweden gets 2 of the best Leopard 2's in the game, while Germany still hasn't gotten it's version of a similar Leopard with similar hull armour, I just want the goddamn armour the Swedes have I will happily trade DM53 for it. Also the Swedish Leopard's also have proximity fuse shells for heli's aswell as having stick APFSDS which is a huge help with grinding.
@@cqpp The Strv 122 is just a modified A5, so Sweden doesn't exactly get 'more' than the German A5 and A6, it's just the different directions the countries took with their modifications.
@@HellbirdIV well that’s the problem he brings up, Germany also went in the same direction with additional hull armour, it’s just that is not represented in game. Although tbh I’m fine with the way my 2a6 and 2a5 are
It's a tiny pet peeve of mine, but does anyone else dislike when they add specific real world vehicles as tech tree or squadron vehicles? Premiums, I understand. Most of the starter premiums, some other premiums like the 1st PTG M4A4, Black Cat M18, Cobra King M4A3E2, the new Desert Storm Challenger and PzBtl 123 Leopard 2A4, etc. Those make enough since because you're paying for the skin in addition to the vehicle itself. Usually has some unique decoration to it as well, or other visual difference aside from the skin. Same thing with that recent IS-2, which apparently isn't real at all but was "inspired" by real vehicles for use in that event. I'm totally fine with that. I just don't like when those are in the tech tree, or now squadron vehicles. Could've just been the bog standard M1A1 AIM with Australian camo, but no other markings. Would've preferred that, instead of the specific Anarchy, presumably a real vehicle from the Australian tank forces. Tech tree and squadron vehicles should be totally devoid of markings, because customization is supposed to be on our end, and some people (especially me) love to do that ourselves.
So we have had the M1A1 Abrams AIM which is the Australian version of the Abrams. We have had the Centurion 5/1 which is the Australian version of the Centurion. When will we see the Australian version of the Leopard.

I finally unlocked the m1a1, and was seriously disappointed by the 120mm. Then I unlocked the dart. After so long of suffering with the so so 105mm, I finally feel like a God among men.
5:47 that's just Russian MBTs currently; I recently made a reddit post about it, shells that pen most top tier Russian MBTs refuse to spall. The biggest perpetrator is the BVM, where on can put 3-4 rounds into its side and have them pass through the carousel as if nothing happened. This "feature" was discovered around 6 months ago, where in the files, certain armor parts of Russian MBTs have spalling turned off.
@@Aes880 I replied to your comment with pics and a reddit post, however, I assume Odd has a bot filter on that filters links, which means my comment isn't visible. It's up to Odd to approve of my comment for it to be visible. If that doesn't happen here's a TLDR: The shot on the Chally was very poor, it hit the UFP which at that angle is around 650mm of armor. The shot on the Leo **DID** spall but the spall did no damage, a bug that seems to be ongoing since at least 2020.
wait! I'm not the only one with the track glitch omg like I keep losing my shit because I can't see the enemy because of some spastic tracks that happen in the worst times.
I never liked top tier, too many helicopters and broken cas. Plus the laser range finder makes it a lot easier to kill tanks at a distance. You make it look like fun tho
Beer gets worse when exported. Come over here and try the 10+ local breweries in my hometown and tell me the beer isn't good. We'll hit them all in one day and won't remember it the next.
Dont even get me started on the fact my australian tank is in a tech tree i dont even want to play with how easy it is... God forbid the Australian tank go into the British tech tree.
As a new player in higher BRs with stabilized guns, I must apologize for idiots like me who (out of massive habit) still come to a stop to fire. You go from shooting with what seems to be a turret on a playground swing to something so nice and stable that it just doesn’t compute sometimes.

I hate it, Gaijin turned off Spalling on Russian MBTs again, they're basically unkillable.
Well they gotta win somewhere if ya know what i mean
Skill issue?
How do you always get teams of opponents allowing those kinds of manouvers? Whenever I play, I always have a blind team with just one tank in the lineup, and the opposition is literally always both organized and have multiple vehicles. I want whatever match making mod you're running :P
Can you play the L-62 (i think its called) its the Swedish bathtub at 2.7.
The shrapnel is soooo good, and when it comes to the heavier targets like the B1 or a T50 just shoot the Cupola you’ll kill them in 2-3 shots easy.
You can 1 shot panzers easy. I can definitely see this tank going up in BR for sure
I only have the AIMS Abrams but it's a lot of fun with the HSTVL and AGS
Bro kept coming back to the same spot on the map 3 or 4 times and got killed every time lol
The only thing I don’t like about this tank is it sounds like police sirens going off moving the turret
Being Aussie I can agree it’s annoying that when I wake up I have to adjust to being upside down
1:23 ah yes, "Crew knocked out"
I just noticed the symbol for the thermals at 0:40 looks like a Chi-Ri
Nice video! you should do one on the STRV-122, they got a better dart round now!
Kind of funny and stupid how Sweden gets 2 of the best Leopard 2's in the game, while Germany still hasn't gotten it's version of a similar Leopard with similar hull armour, I just want the goddamn armour the Swedes have I will happily trade DM53 for it.
Also the Swedish Leopard's also have proximity fuse shells for heli's aswell as having stick APFSDS which is a huge help with grinding.
@@cqpp The Strv 122 is just a modified A5, so Sweden doesn't exactly get 'more' than the German A5 and A6, it's just the different directions the countries took with their modifications.
@@HellbirdIV well that’s the problem he brings up, Germany also went in the same direction with additional hull armour, it’s just that is not represented in game. Although tbh I’m fine with the way my 2a6 and 2a5 are
So im not online often but this is the first m1a1 aim video I've seen
Only downsight of this tank is the grind and the Price
Oddbawz , Scourge of the battlefield , Reaper of ammo racks , Yeeter of crews!!!
at this point I am convinced that Gaijin intentionally nerfing the shrapnel effect when you pen Russian tanks
They are, it’s been datamined lol
It's a tiny pet peeve of mine, but does anyone else dislike when they add specific real world vehicles as tech tree or squadron vehicles?
Premiums, I understand. Most of the starter premiums, some other premiums like the 1st PTG M4A4, Black Cat M18, Cobra King M4A3E2, the new Desert Storm Challenger and PzBtl 123 Leopard 2A4, etc. Those make enough since because you're paying for the skin in addition to the vehicle itself. Usually has some unique decoration to it as well, or other visual difference aside from the skin. Same thing with that recent IS-2, which apparently isn't real at all but was "inspired" by real vehicles for use in that event. I'm totally fine with that.
I just don't like when those are in the tech tree, or now squadron vehicles. Could've just been the bog standard M1A1 AIM with Australian camo, but no other markings. Would've preferred that, instead of the specific Anarchy, presumably a real vehicle from the Australian tank forces. Tech tree and squadron vehicles should be totally devoid of markings, because customization is supposed to be on our end, and some people (especially me) love to do that ourselves.
What sound mod are you using?
Dude we have so many different kinds of beer here.......
I have had hundreds of different beers.
We have a variety that is impossible to comprehend.
I really enjoy the format of this video!
Finially an Australian Tank vid
So we have had the M1A1 Abrams AIM which is the Australian version of the Abrams. We have had the Centurion 5/1 which is the Australian version of the Centurion. When will we see the Australian version of the Leopard.
Should’ve been part of the British tech tree
I'm Aussie and the main reason I do ground battles is because of this.
Been getting a lot of those crits and then kills after the update
I watch your videos, and I think to myself, "yeah, I'm terrible at this game, and will always be getting wrecked."
If I get a hit in a match I’m pumped.
just play britian. It will be sad but it will make you a good player
LOL, you guys are one to talk about beer Scotsman. Cheerio from the Czech republic.😁🇨🇿🍻🏴
Budvar (REAL BUD) cannot be bested, you have me there!
It can be bested! The most czech co-workers i worked with hate Budvar to the bones. I prefer Radegast, Chodovar, Krusovice, Kozel or a good Pilsener Urquell and a lot of others, before i drink this red-white labelled Pisswater. Nastravi ty vole! Greetings from bavaria.
Česko mentioned, RAAAAAAHHHH!
Love your vids OddBawZ
I finally unlocked the m1a1, and was seriously disappointed by the 120mm. Then I unlocked the dart. After so long of suffering with the so so 105mm, I finally feel like a God among men.
These new videos are great, it's like the classic intros but for the entire video.
Your videos are always awesome been bingeing your channel for a month love it!!
We have the Freebrams now...
So where's the free parts&FPE?
Finally, after all these years...
RealFreeAbrams.
Love the advice , just subscribed
5:47 that's just Russian MBTs currently; I recently made a reddit post about it, shells that pen most top tier Russian MBTs refuse to spall. The biggest perpetrator is the BVM, where on can put 3-4 rounds into its side and have them pass through the carousel as if nothing happened.
This "feature" was discovered around 6 months ago, where in the files, certain armor parts of Russian MBTs have spalling turned off.
Same thing happen to the chally and Leo2A6 in the video lol
@@Aes880 I replied to your comment with pics and a reddit post, however, I assume Odd has a bot filter on that filters links, which means my comment isn't visible. It's up to Odd to approve of my comment for it to be visible. If that doesn't happen here's a TLDR: The shot on the Chally was very poor, it hit the UFP which at that angle is around 650mm of armor. The shot on the Leo **DID** spall but the spall did no damage, a bug that seems to be ongoing since at least 2020.
Skill issue
Odd, you are smiply amazing. Thank you for all that you do for us.
Thh only thing I dont like is they modeled it with a heat deflector on the exhaust. Seems weird.
wait! I'm not the only one with the track glitch omg like I keep losing my shit because I can't see the enemy because of some spastic tracks that happen in the worst times.
when team mate died you said good you bad boy
I also call it the KEKW shell lmao
I never liked top tier, too many helicopters and broken cas. Plus the laser range finder makes it a lot easier to kill tanks at a distance. You make it look like fun tho
Just go heli hunting in a low tier plane. I -185 for russia and the a36 in america are the most fun imo. Easy 30k sl every match.
I'd love to pick up the Kangaroobrams eventually!
Ugh, giving everyone a free Abrams is like giving everyone free parts and fpe man.
I finally got it after a few months it’s nice but the stock grind is brutal
I wish Gaijins will add Australian F-111 as squadron plane to accompaniment the Australian Abrams .
Would be better as an event or Tt vehicle
It's a painful stock grind
Nice style of review 👌🏻 !!!
This is just like the Leo 2PL, a free 10.7 MBT that is arguably better than its top tier counterpart
I was wondering why every match was America v America today. this explains it.
Top tier:
Whoever shoots first and sees other guy wins
Beer gets worse when exported. Come over here and try the 10+ local breweries in my hometown and tell me the beer isn't good. We'll hit them all in one day and won't remember it the next.
Mate, top-tier ground forces are closer to Naval in terms of gameplay than to low-tier ground forces...
“Blind French boi”- A Type 10. Rip Japan.
This is real free abrams
"muh freebrams"
Dont even get me started on the fact my australian tank is in a tech tree i dont even want to play with how easy it is...
God forbid the Australian tank go into the British tech tree.
The problem of the tank is the teams and the fact new players can get this tank
Will you play the Strv 122 with its new round?
I'm glad I researching it
Goddammit, they made the meme a reality. . . I just got back to this game, at the very least it wasn't a premium!
Finally…. The Freebrams.
GOT THAT FREE ABRAMS
Did he mention that this abrams is free through squadron grinding
Soo OddBawZ likes Yuengling... a man of good taste.
Wow, you've had Yuengling? That is made near where I live and is a local staple. That sold in Scotland?
As a new player in higher BRs with stabilized guns, I must apologize for idiots like me who (out of massive habit) still come to a stop to fire. You go from shooting with what seems to be a turret on a playground swing to something so nice and stable that it just doesn’t compute sometimes.
You’re right Yuengling is pretty good…
Thanks so much for the great vids Odd :)
Finally, the freebrams
