right in my front through the turret. I'm really getting tired of this shit, everygame i play most people are driving SPAA now because you can just zoom around and flank and light up enemies.
Or in my case my armor is so shit apparently that this thing penetrated my front turret and it killed my crew
>>143522109

>>143522283
The joke is Typhoons caused a few friendly fire accidents while tank busting during the Falaise Pocket. Plenty of Americans did too, but it's only funny when other countries do it.

>>143523162
>7 August, a RAF Hawker Typhoon strafed a squad from 'F' Company/US 120th Infantry Regiment, near Hill 314, France, killing two men. Around noon on the same day, RAF Hawker Typhoon of the 2TAF was called in to assist the US 823rd Tank Destroyer Battalion in stopping an attack by the 2nd SS Panzer Division between Sourdeval and Mortain but instead fired its rockets at two US 3-inch guns near L'Abbaye Blanche, killing one man and wounding several others even after the yellow smoke (which was to identify friendlies) was put out. Two hours later, an RAF Typhoon shot up the Service Company of the 120th Infantry Regiment, US 30th Division, causing several casualties, including Major James Bynum who was killed near Mortain. The officer who replaced him was strafed by another Typhoon a few minutes later and seriously wounded. Around the same time, a Hawker Typhoon attacked the Cannon Company of 120th Infantry Regiment, US 30th Division, near Mortain, killing 15 men. An hour later, RAF Typhoons strafed 'B' Company/US 120th Infantry Regiment on Hill 285, killing a driver of a weapons carrier.

A tank that also can't pen soviets unless you flank, but guess what now you're in a churchill and slow as fuck.
Meanwhile soviets can easily pen you even frontal.

Low rank Burger planes are well ballanced, properly armed and still quite maneuverable but above 3.0 their planes start beign less agile than fucking IL-2. Currently working up to unlock P-51, it should get better, I hope, but late Tier 2 planes are plain awful.

that reminds me, today when I tried out the Sheridan I fired into the side of the KT turret. shrapnell all got absorbed by the side ammorack. 4.9kg of TNT equivalant was what I think the 152mm had.
It turned orange
>>143530091
thats it as for britain as far as anyone knows, with the sneak peak page up and the dev server opened, yeah its really fucking sad. also we got the only premium ATGM too.
>>143529631
This is how slav tanks get racked. In Western tank, even if rack gets hit, there's solid chance for you to GTFO before tank turns inferno, thanks to less potent, but more stable HE load, and better ammo placement.
But in cramped Soviet tanks, if propellant is lit up it will ignite HE almost instantly.
There's video of Saudi Abrams getting racked like it's T-72. This is exactly result of loading it with rounds as tightly as Soviets did.
>>143530250
This was only really made a thing with the M1 Abrams, the blowout panels.
Unsure if the T-14 has similar compartments, but I'd think so considering the separate autoloading turret.
>>143527882
Low BR anything is typically balanced. Honestly after 4.0 things just become a shit tornado.
>>143529968

Of course I fucking have. I've flown against them hundreds of times. They're fast, but that's it. They have low velocity, unreliable cannons and they can't turn worth shit. Did you get diddled by one in your stock P-80 or something?
>>143533726

That's why American heavy bomber spam is winning every RB game right?
>>143530332
actually reducing ammo load to as little as you can helps a lot. Unlike WT where it's just reduces chance for ammo to get hit, IRL it also reduces intensify of flames, giving crew precious seconds to get out.
webm related. Hit would obliberate entire tank if it was full, but Syrians leaned from Russians about limiting ammo load to bare minimum, which is completely opposite to their practice up to this point.
>>143534515
>They were called Flying Fortresses for a reason.

>>143537872
I think you're missing the point of wanting to be in the T-14, is the fact that you're sitting in an armoured core in the centre of the hull of the tank, as protected as you possibly could be.
>>143537875
And why would you stay in buring tank any longer than needed to get everyone out? Argon is there to reduce flames and thus, help you leave

>>143538401
They were pointless to keep as the siren fucked up the plane's flying characteristics. Bombs later also had whistles to make "the whistling" sound you hear when they drop. Psychological effect stayed the same and the plane was easier to fly without the siren. And unlike >>143538508 said, enemy didn't get used to it. Even in the game you shit your pants if you heard the bomb's whistle above you (before bombs were nerfed), but in real life it was all more terrifying. http://history.stackexchange.com/questions/2686/did-world-war-ii-era-bombs-actually-whistle

it's definitely not new, the one we already have in game is an A-2 model, the one pictured is an A-1
>>143539638
>>143539624
>>143539623
Oh yeah that's right, that was with a silly ol IED.
The RPG-29 was against the Abrams. Not that that was anything new either
>By December 2006 more than 530 Abrams tanks had been shipped back to the U.S. for repair
>>143539364
here's what I can gather from this
>tank fires
>starts ejecting gas
>somewhere there's a malfunction and the ammo starts cooking off
>guy gets thrown out and runs to safety
>>143539669
>it's definitely new*
fix'd
>>143539532
that one has 2 x 30 mm mk 108 cannons, otherwise its almost the exact same performance.

>During the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the Challenger 2 tanks suffered no tank losses to enemy fire, although one was penetrated by an IED. This was, at the time, unprotected by Dorchester armour. The driver was injured. In one encounter within an urban area, a Challenger 2 came under attack from irregular forces with machine guns and rocket propelled grenades. The driver's sight was damaged and, while attempting to back away under the commander's directions, the other sights were damaged and the tank threw its tracks entering a ditch. It was hit directly by 14 rocket propelled grenades from close range and a MILAN anti-tank missile. The crew survived, remaining safe within the tank until it was recovered for repairs, the worst damage being to the sighting system. It was back in operation six hours later, after repairs had been done. One Challenger 2 operating near Basra survived being hit by 70 RPGs in another incident.
>In August 2006 south east of al-Amarah, southern Iraq, an RPG-29 capable of firing a tandem-charge penetrated the frontal lower underbelly armour of a Challenger 2 commanded by Captain Thomas Williams of The Queens's Royal Hussars. The tank, which had already been hit by 10-15 RPGs, small arms and sniper fire, was attempting to draw fire away from another callsign that had become stricken. Its driver, Trooper Sean Chance, lost part of his foot in the blast; two more of the crew were slightly injured. Chance was able to reverse the vehicle 1.5 mi (2.4 km) to the regimental aid post despite his injuries. The incident was not made public until May 2007; in response to accusations that crews had been told the tank was impervious to the insurgents weapons, the MoD said "We have never claimed that the Challenger 2 is impenetrable." Since then, the explosive reactive armour has been replaced with a Dorchester block and the steel underbelly lined with armour as part of the 'Streetfighter' upgrade as a direct response to this incident.
Muh feet.

>first encounter with an anti-tank weapon that isn't from the 1960s
>penetrated instantly
Sounds like a pretty bad track record.
>>143540043
MUH FEET
>>143539819
It got hit.
>tank hit in rear with missile
>tank gun discharges because of missile impact (either from malfunction of gunner inadvertently firing)
>ammunition starts to catch fire
>one guy barely gets to safety
>>143540110
Yeah I'm sure saying "Muh feet" over and over will change the fact that the tank was penetrated by an infantry weapon.
>>143540140
>the bottom of the tank should be impenetrable
>>143539508
I've always wondered, isn't that driver's hatch a huge weakspot?
>>143540168
>literally the bit pointed towards the enemy right below the drivers feet
>"bottom"
>>143540176
We'll only find out after the driver get's his head blown off by an RPG, and then they decide to stick a huge block of armour on top of it.
>>143539819
>>143540128
he was not inside of tank.
at 00:01-00:02 you can see him behind rear of a tank doing something
>>143540427
That's a piece of fabric or plastic floating in the wind. There's debris on the ground next to the tank and at the right edge of the frame being blown around.

>snipe a T-34 800m away

That was a fluke, this thing is a pain to research isn't it?
>>143541780
sabot rounds are a hit an miss, you mostly have to rely on exploding fuel tanks or ammo, which can either kill first shot or never detonate despite the module turning black as hell, basically relying on dice rolls.
>play tonks
>rhine advance
>get shot by an spaag trough 4 building ruins
no damage but he could see me and shoot

best patch ever
I hope they add MG FFs to it on release.
>>143539749
You realise this could be "Totally trashed, everyone killed" or "The headlights got asploded and needed some extensive rewiring", right? "Needs repair" covers a lot of ground.And because I hate myself, ex-warpac and NATO tanks are both good and built under different design philosophies for different requirements
>>143541780
Comet is wholly reliant on APDS. Get it, and it's a joy to play. The tanks at that tier that don't get APDS are pure suffering. Firefly and Avenger both need it, for example.
>>143543295
I'd rather Gaijin fixed their DM so that regular AP could kill tanks like it's supposed to.

do you think tankers had man boobs to provide drinks while on long missions?

What He219 should that be? A-7?

I guess lawn mowing shitters will be pleased
I wonder when he'll finish it.
The Maus is overtiered
discuss
>>143544950
Why is the Mk103 ammunition so low? It should be 300 rounds per gun. Same goes for the Mk108.
>tfw it well never get all the Rüstsätze
>>143545595
maus should be a 6.7 desu
>>143545595
It's quite the dilemma since it would wreck everything bellow it but it's fighting future tanks
they should just remove it
