Vickers Mk1 bugged
The turret cheeks don't have armor, like literally, the armor isn't registering. try it in protection analysis, even a 7.7 goes right through.

The Vickers Mk 1 has paper-thin armour, it is really not something to be relied on. Likewise the Vickers Mk 3 which is my favourite. :enlightened:

It is a problem tho when a literal smoke shell can overpressure you

trust gaijin to deliver and bug free update.

T-55A and AMD-1 got a hole near the gun breach on the gunner side which can be overpressured or pened with MGs
SU152 doesn't have the 65 mm armor around the brech it shows in the armor view but its not working everything goes right through it
Object 906 doesn't have turret armor at all, i know it's a light tank with paper armor but now even 7mm can pen it and is killed by art as if it was a open top
and vikers mk1 with not frontal plates in the turret
its been a month like this already and i doubt they'll fix it anytime soon so use that info to your advantage if you see a enemy with these vehicles you already know how to kill :v

Since it's brits, possibly never.

Hi, our devs will fix any bugs if they are actually bugs. What OP is describing may be a round that is simply good enough to penetrate the armour cheeks.

However if you think this is a bug, then please submit a report here: https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder

This will greatly help our devs to fix any bugs. Thanks!

It's slightly concerning that a machine gun can pen a tanks turret like that. Currently researching the Mk1 so I'll avoid buying it till that kinda thing is fixed.

While you are at it, Tell your devs to Nerf the entire Russian tech tree and balance the game.
people don't think Russian hardware in real life is better because you put incorrect stats in your *game* to buff them. Fix your game and remove the propaganda.

Ban me from the forums for speaking out about this if you will.

Im done.

Why would I ban you for that comment? Btw we don't buff Russian vehicles because we want "Russian Bias".

Then why are Russia winning 80% of higher tier matches?

Higher tier being 8.7-11.3 Air and ground.

There's no public stats on this so how would you know?

Are you sure about that. https://wt.controlnet.space
The Roach Apr 3, 2023 @ 8:46am 
A prime example of you guys buffing Russian hardware is Russian era.

They are mean't for Explosive damage however they still tank 600mm kinetic sabots while literally every other ERA Variant from other country's are like glorified paperweights with no armour properties at all... i mean look at the Challenger 2 TES.

I could Keep going on and on about how broken you guys have made Russia but the fact its a meme at this point should tell you somethings wrong.

Here is an post i created Just for you...


We have T-80's tanking 600mm APFSDS to the ammo carousel shots (to no effect)
firing missiles out of there barrels with up to 1200mm of armour pen and a reload time of 6 seconds.

we have Ka-50s eating up to 12 Sams missiles. staying alive after death killing multiple
more people (Despite them being dead)

we have BMPs bouncing and eating 600mm APFSDS (to no effect)

we have Su-25's With a stupidly low BR Su-25 tanking 6-8 SAM missiles.

BMP's and T-80 Also have have the ability to fire missiles at full speed which from my understanding no other country has (May be Wrong)

i have certainly missed out some major points and im sorry..


--Air RB--

-Su-25's/k's-
As i said earlier the Su-25 on a good run can eat about 100 rounds for some reason.
rounds being (27mm Mauser) (30mm Gau-4) (23mm GSH) and (30mm GSH)

-Mig-29's- i don't know how but most missiles this thing fires are impossible to evade and Can lock onto you (ACROSS THE MAP),

i have tried different manoeuvres in various different aircraft with various to different countermeasure mixes and release sequences to no effect, i also think the manoeuvrability is absolutely insane for a 4th gen plane some countries can't even compete.

For example Britain and Sweden which both have not received any really decent fighters, yes that includes both variants of the Tornadoes for the British

Mig 23's

despite this being early 4th gen don't let this annoying hunk of metal fool you, it can manoeuvre very well. and can outrun most fighter in a dogfight. in addition to that it also comes with All Aspect 30g missiles at 11.3. this plane is just a little worse than the British Tornado F.3


Fix Russia or buff other counties
