I was on the TOW on abandoned hangars, the kill you saw was actually the 3rd tank probably why the tickets were so close. Ended up with 4 tanks a logi and the TOW MATV. My squad mate was in the spandrel and had 4 tank kills of his own. Even if our tanks couldn't get a kill on their own we had it covered lol.
People usually forget that tanks don’t take any damage when hull down, EXCEPT ONE THING: the barrel of the gun. You can shoot straight at the barrel of gun from your enemy’s tanks if they are looking at you. It is hard to shoot a small spot like that, but when you can, you win that engagement even if they are hull down.
It is more about the big hole in armor for the gun but yeah, turret cheeks can not be penetrated by APFSDS, so the gun mantlet along with some optics ports are the only places where you should aim against a hull down tank.
Atgms that are top attack and the ones that fire the shaped charges down into the top of the turret won't give a s**t if you are hull down...but I'm guessing that you are talking about regular rounds only.
I was in this game and I really didn’t know our tanks were getting smoked that hard. 😅. We were all complaining how the tanks were playing war thunder and not helping us push the middle cap but the infantry and tanks cooked at the end 😂.
36:57 now, why in the hell wouldn’t you back up a bit and get out of the line of fire in that Abrams so the repairman can do his job and keep that tank a rolling! It doesn’t appear to be tracked either, unless I’m missing something… lol
God this channel and these videos are enthralling, I wanna see this but with two announcers on the same channel in a split screen with one watching the opposing force and narrating along
Does squad actually has an armor system? I know Post Scriptum has, and I always thought Squad didn't, everything is based on amount of HP a part of the tank has (at least I remember it that way)
I've always found it odd with the tanks why it's one-for-one. Isn't the T-72 trash compared to an Abrams or is there some kind of balance in this game where it's just generic tank vs generic tank?
MBTs in squad share a lot of similarities such as base health (3000), damage, and round penetration, but differ in other ways so as that each tank has some unique advantage/disadvantage. The abrams for example is unique to other tanks in that it has a 6.5 second reload compared to 8 seconds for all others, it has the best reverse speed and generally people agree that it has the best gun handling, its downside is that its engine is very loud and its sabot rounds have slower velocity compared to other MBTs. The T-72 has an advantage with its barrel launched ATGM which makes it a bit better at longer range and hitting helicopters, and it has frag rounds which are better for dealing with infantry compared to HEAT, but it has a lot of disadvantages such as terrible reverse speed, not great turret rotation speed, terrible gun depression, and a very easy to hit ammo rack. So yeah the T-72 is definitely the worse of the two tanks by a good margin unfortunately
Correct but the issue really is damage models. An abram irl would one shot most T-series russian tanks. But russian tanks could just as easily take out an abrams in one shot assuming they dont hit the frontal turret. Basically all tank fights IRL will be 1 shot game over or at least out of the fight, there is footage of this online now. A leapoard tank knocking out t-72s in one shot, but it goes both ways. Really the big thing is target identification, who can spot the enemy first, who hits first, who can survive drones better.
@@Kryptix Any tank can be taken down by 1 shot irl. but when we talk about armor and kinetic energy its more about the range. this is why heavy tanks are suitable in open terrain, because most firefights kicks in on long distances making the extra armor useful. id say T-72s can be easily taken down from 1400-1600m while abrams would be something around 600-800m. A T-80 would be more fair comparison as they are classefied on the same category as the abrams.
idk if its possible moi but it would be cool if you did eye in the sky on some Australian servers, specifically aussie battler gaming, the only servers in Australia tbh. Admins would def give you perm to do this, would be cool to hear an aussie server match.
The T-72 is not a light tank (and even if it were the T-72 is also heavier than the T-80, and comparatively underpowered). Russian tanks being lighter than western ones has more to do with their small size and autoloader, not a lack of armour.
I think he was referring to being able to “lob” the heat rounds to land on the top of the t72 turrets which would penetrate the weak top armour and deal massive damage
@@eXcalibre_ incorrect, you're assuming it would be landing, or should I say falling, at a 45 degree angle which just isn't possible. instead hes referring to how HEAT has the same penetration at any range while AP loses pen
How often are these servers on, I love tanks but tanks always seem to be locked or zero comms or they are just angry I don’t have 20+ hours in tanks on normal servers
Potato field servers are always on and populated, as far as the tank layer, I've only seen it about 4-5 times so not too often, There's also a layer rotation list on their discord.
If you want to play vehicles it is best done with friends. Or just make the vehicle squad yourself and let randoms join the squad before locking it. Potato servers are new player friendly so you are allowed to play vehicles even without experience, but it can require a squad leader that is ok with it.
dont play on potato fields if you want a good armor experience, hop on something like bloodbound or insomnia, join a random armor squad and learn, once you've learn enough to the point you feel the flow of the game and everything you can start gunning when you squadlead armor yourself. DON'T PLAY POTATO FIELDS IF YOU WANT A GOOD ARMOR EXPERIENCE, only play servers with nameclaim
@@BlackWolf9988 exactly same thing here and the fact that most people there even with 3000hours dont know whats happening or why, all of the potato fields servers are just a bad enviroment to be in if you want a good time.
From a Squad Medic in upgrade training to Support Role specializing in Engineering, I respect tank battles but don’t enjoy them. My perspective of Squad armor drivers in general have very little to do with combined arms and more with 1 to 2 man locked squads and them out playing War Thunder with each other. Maybe just me but my opinion.
@@brendanharvey3583 nah i take it back now after i finished the vid lmao, Russian MBT crews came back from that tough opening fight, good plays on both teams tho
its more about the efficiency of Anti-tank missiles and drones rather than the TTs. all tanks are becoming obsolete except for those with solid active protection system.
Tysm i Said russia vs us and i get it❤

The hero himself. I was on the other tow on the fob right next to you and assisted against two Abrams. You’re Welcome
@@IbnWobbler Teamwork makes the dream work 🤜🤛
How is the game ? I bought it like when it came out and was playing other games , looks fun tho.
7:15 6v6 tank fights are so cinematic especially at long range and when tanks are grouped like that
0:15 "from the backside now taking shots"
I should call her :(
Always a good day when moi dawg uploads
He always makes me want to play squad.
These T72 crews at first acted like if I got in a tank for the first time, but after their pep talk started acting like they wanted to win

Sneaky bastard that last Russian BRDM that ended the game. That came out of nowhere, ammoracked and tracked us.
I was in the Russian team and we all thought we were losing the whole time. Little did we know the spandrel carried us like a baby 😂.
How does one play in these games? Looks like some real fun!
@@Armstrongx7 Play on the potato field servers and there is a chance it will be recorded.
You just gotta love a badass convoy roll out 🔥 3:25
I was in this game and I really didn’t know our tanks were getting smoked that hard. 😅. We were all complaining how the tanks were playing war thunder and not helping us push the middle cap but the infantry and tanks cooked at the end 😂.
Also I was the first tank that died on 8:55
😂😂😂
Finally get to sit down and unwind and you upload an eye and the sky? Hell yeah dude
Nice to See some Real Open Trading Field Tankery
So Vibey
Not me acreaming at the abrams crew not doing berm drills 16:00
36:57 now, why in the hell wouldn’t you back up a bit and get out of the line of fire in that Abrams so the repairman can do his job and keep that tank a rolling!
It doesn’t appear to be tracked either, unless I’m missing something… lol
This is my favorite tanks fighting on eye in the sky
God this channel and these videos are enthralling, I wanna see this but with two announcers on the same channel in a split screen with one watching the opposing force and narrating along
Dude when there’s tank gameplay I love it so much I love the tanks in These games
35:58, why is there a logi over here away from the infantry, the caps, and the fighting? wtf is it doing out in the open near enemy lines alone?
This guy could do football commentary I swear, he’s proper got the voice for it lol
drop another performance guide video for v6
You should really try doing an Eye in the Sky with Post Scriptum!
Does squad actually has an armor system? I know Post Scriptum has, and I always thought Squad didn't, everything is based on amount of HP a part of the tank has (at least I remember it that way)
It does but it is basic
I've always found it odd with the tanks why it's one-for-one.

Will we see a battle with abrams and t72 working together via Moroccan forces
Watching this is almost better than playing these days
Does Wenz ever lose when he's commander?😂

There is zsu gaming and BIG D aswell
yeah but they run less servers and are not as popular and arent the ogs @@MrHavokman
@@Kryptix but BIG D baby
light tanks vs heavy tanks on an open terrain? maybe T-80s would be more suitable

So the abrams dont have thermal?
8:26 why would you use heat when even ap rounds are dropping, you'd have to aim very high with HEAT rounds at that range
I think he was referring to being able to “lob” the heat rounds to land on the top of the t72 turrets which would penetrate the weak top armour and deal massive damage

Epic battle!! Wish the tank maps were more common in the rotation ;D
song id at the beginning?
why they not moving after each shot?
great video but would love to see a full clan-based game of squad.
How do I play tank mode? Do I just search a server for it?
Random chance that you get the layout, i doubt that there is a server focused only on tanks.
you missed it, my buddy in a t62 killed a challenger circling him after being tracked by 2 hats
I kept getting turreted that damn game!
Was in this game on the American side, was doing logi the whole entire game and nobody knows how to build rep stations. Just sad
Hows a t72 going to beat an abrams, they should introduce t80 or t90
its a been long time since i seen tailil outskirts.
everybody forgets lashkar tanks
R.I.P. if you're watching on ur phone lol.
💀
The Abrams was built to destroy Russian steel, looks like squad got it right lol
It's another stream of you watching the map. We see more of the map than gameplay.

Love the comentary and vids here, wish we saw more action and less map, but that is personal opinion.
T72s fightin for their lives despite having 2 to 1 number advantage is wild lmao💀😂 seems accurate enough, well played on the US crews
Accurate?

epic ending we want moreeeeeee
Lazy mate , give us another türkisch eye in the skye already🎉❤
tank graveyard 3.0

So I wonder if the Dev will ever balance the T-72 to actually reflect how poor they perform. As seen in Ukraine haha
