The only tank with spall liners in the ussr tech tree is the T90M and it's objectively WORSE than all of its equivalent rivals.

Can't wait to get my hands on those Strv 122s. Quality of gameplay is so much better on Sweden when you don't have a whole bunch of braindead XM-1s, KVTs, Wolfpacks and A-10As on your team. Things are about to get worse with the addition of hairy Leopard 2A4 next update but hopefully I will be at 11.7-12.7 when that drops.

    Premium players may have made the winrates go down but they werent the problem with USA, the Abrams is shit compared to almost every other MBT it faces due to its horrendous armo; thats the actual reason. Unfortunately there's nothing Gaijin can really do to make it better beyond giving US crews modeled flak jackets and modeling the turret basket in the vehicle to absorb spall a little.

      It’s both the US tanks AND players, more players than tanks, but the tanks aren’t helping the issue. Any US heavy game is 25% minimum 1-3 deaths no kills leavers(Normally 40-50%) on my experience, and sometimes all the way up to like 50-75%.
      The Abrams has its problems that need rectifying, but I’d take it over French and Italian tanks in a second as well as Israeli.
      It’s the players and the tanks. I say this as a U.S. main vending Russia with a completely premium bought and 292 10.0 lineup.

      DU on the hull and forward side skirts would help, so would modeling the turret ring the correct (smaller) size and giving it the actual 250-300mm of overlapping steel it has irl. its safe to assume that irl the armor is somewhat more effective than in game but it does lack a spall liner.

    Even with AIM-120s coming, it won't help much. The snail will buff Russian copium claiming all soviet radars and missiles will never lose lock, track better and fly faster. US will still a struggle in 2024

The only time Rolands work consistently is against helis and drones, otherwise 90% of pilots will easily dodge the missile.
