There is no way to say yes or no without measuring. The camera In Real Life can zoom in and out. Lenses makes things look different etc etc. You need to correct with a known item's length in a picture and work around any distortions that exist. Or you need to know the camera (setting included) and then figure out after the fact what size something truly is. And in game just like a camera IRL you got distortion and view angles messing up eyeball measurements. In game you also need a trusted measurement to make sure stuff is actually to size. And there is nothing that can be 100% real in a 3D rendering. You can get very close but to trust that something truly is arcuate in size is hard. And we are talking about WT. So even there tools might be broken and a claimed measurement can be off. Since we know WT is so realistic and such. Really the best option is to to compare one model to a other and figure out if there is something off in the scales. Since if one takes the 3D models and make comparison one is very likely to figure out if they are to scale with each other. If we know the real size of a T55 for example and compare it Abrams ( that we some how known the real life size down to measurements?) One should be able even with margin of error see if the models are to scale 1 to 1. Then take it into game and make one final more error prone measurement to make sure it truly is 1 to 1. Since agen we are talking about WT and there realism. 3D can make a household item the size of the got dam moon. So.... Still not going to need RTX ON marketing. wat wat? Remember this game might be realistic in 800x600 resolution for all WT cares. 1920x1080 and higher might be stretching the screen.
wdym its the same, The M1A2 we currently have is around 30 years old, compared to the stuff the russians and other countries get. Calling the M1A2 an 11.0 vehicle is a joke compared to the V3

The M1A2C is the SEP V3 silly, quite literally the most top of the line variant in service today. Like others have pointed out, it’s 30 years ahead of the based A2 in terms of *everything*. In fact, the SEP V4 is in development to be the next variant, which will be the M1A2D whenever it enters service.
At first as US main I.was quite angry that most of the time US gets nerfed or worse version of its vehicles. Now I dont care coz gaijin have to take 30y old tank tech to match with latest russian tanks to be game competetive.

I like how you play Halo combat evolved perilous journey , I'm in the middle of the campaign mission where that song plays lol 😂 and they literally almost just a split second off of each other started at the same time
1:53 Question, from what I understand, M900 can only be fired from the M68A1 and M68A1E4 cannons that are fitted to the older Abrams and the M1128, due to the higher pressure and doing so in a cannon that cannot tolerate the pressure will result to severe to catastrophic damage to the recoil mechanism. Did someone not know this or get the rounds mixed up and fired M900 from an M60?
There was apparently an M900A1 variant that had reduced chamber pressure. I don’t know what changes it would have had to performance but it allowed earlier 105mms to fire the M900.
@@martindinner3621 The M60A1 RISE and M60A3 use the M68E1 which has a thermal sleeve and a different gun mount. The 105 Abrams uses the M68A1, which among other improvements, can fire the higher power M900 round.

-We need airstrike i repeat we need airstrike
Jesus Christ how many times do we have to remind you people that there is no such thing as M1A2C?
It was considered but it was dropped! It's M1A2 SEP v3.
Okay but the M1A2C would actually be a good update for the American tech tree it is yet to have a truly modern version of the tank and a tank with APS.
1:40 That's a big flex after scoring a kill.
Friendly markers are disabled when A-10s look at British Vehicles. Source: Desert Storm itself lmao
I like how you play Halo combat evolved perilous journey , I'm in the middle of the campaign mission where that song plays lol 😂 and they literally almost just a split second off of each other started at the same time
2:09
Oh, hey, its me.
That VA one gave me lulz and PTSD, thanks!
xD
Ouch that “has to prove injury occurred on duty really hit me.”
I love the “not related to service injury meme” lol
The A 10 was kinda horrific in reality compared to other accidents, like... why that many friendly fires and war crimes? wtf xD
People think the gun is accurate when in reality it wasn’t
@@somezsaltz6835 not just that, it’s hard to identify ground vehicles in an aircraft
@@jonathanjuwainat5535 it's not that hard with the proper IFF equipement... wich the A-10 dose not have
Because that's the US Army for you
@@DefinitelyNotEmma Airforce, the Army doesn't operate the A-10
The MQ-1 and A-10 blue-on-blue were the best lol
I'm here for the A-10 slander
The VA joke killed me🤯🤣🤣
@Spookston you forgot to mention that every single player gets a free air spawn due to the size of the USAF.
The VA segment had me dying
Ayo Fuck the A-10, Give the F-111 justice
depends on the version of SEP. the most recent one adds a lot of armor aswell
Guess Odd should have been glad spookston wasn't flying the a-10 when they were playing together lol
*Writes letter to VA in the middle of a match so my crewman can get treated for APFSDS related injuries*
I absolutely LOVE the VA claim one, so fucking accurate! 😂
1:53 Question, from what I understand, M900 can only be fired from the M68A1 and M68A1E4 cannons that are fitted to the older Abrams and the M1128, due to the higher pressure and doing so in a cannon that cannot tolerate the pressure will result to severe to catastrophic damage to the recoil mechanism. Did someone not know this or get the rounds mixed up and fired M900 from an M60?
There was apparently an M900A1 variant that had reduced chamber pressure. I don’t know what changes it would have had to performance but it allowed earlier 105mms to fire the M900.
The M60A1 RISE and M60A3 both mount the M68A1.
The M60A2 gets to share the bizarre M162 with the Sheridan.
@@martindinner3621 The M60A1 RISE and M60A3 use the M68E1 which has a thermal sleeve and a different gun mount. The 105 Abrams uses the M68A1, which among other improvements, can fire the higher power M900 round.
That VA fact had me rolling
More top tier with other nations please!!!
This whole thing was just an excuse to talk about the m1a2 sepv3. The fact we don't even have a sepv1 or 2 is criminal considering the bvm existing in game
MQ1- known also as the “wedding crusher”
I would love it if the M1A2C came into the game, so many little upgrades, but mainly it's those MG turret shields. those are OP. lol
The a10 joke really get me xD
"Friendly markers are disabled when A-10s look at British vehicles"
Yikes, feel sorry for that convoys of FV107
Government: we will let VA cover service related treatments
Also government: that 20mm apds shell blowing off your leg from the knee down wasn’t service related
If top tier spookston was accurate
