this whole thing is unbelievable, also strv 122 is leopard export version or Leopard 2a5EX, which should be weaker than even the 2a5. Maybe, so much so that they put add on armor into it.Export version should be lesser than the indigenous tank, like the Exported abram without DU, Leclerc and chally 1

Sweeden is a minor weapon desginer and manufacturer, they can upgrade tanks on their own, like they have the best IFV series in the world right now, they probably know how to armor a vehicle while also keeping the weight to a minimum. Also the strv 122 B+ is a highly modified prototype made in 2010 (and probably a base for the strv 123 if the costs are okay), it will of course rival the a7
Technically, Leopard 2A5 is a Strv 122 with removed features. They were both developed from the Leopard 2 Improved. And export Leopards are oftentimes better than Bundeswehr variants. 2A7V was only put in service in 2020.
Relikt isn't thick at all, it works by disrupting the penetrator as it passes through it, by exploding the sandwiched plates apart, resulting in a shear force on the penetrator that effectively breaks it up and/or skews its trajectory, before it hits the armour behind the ERA. It's a truly ingenious concept, replacing many tonnes of heavy and expensive composite armour with lightweight and cheap steel plates and a little explosive filler.
@@Sumi_S There's many, many simulations online showing how insanely effective Relikt is (th-cam.com/video/N4hiYhxZwAM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=y7FCKGN-IAq-kgkF), in case the fact that NATO militaries have been constantly upgrading their APFSDS rounds and cannons in the last 30 years, wasn't evidence enough that it works.
@@Sumi_SThere's loads of FEM simulations on TH-cam demonstrating just how insanely effective Relikt is (search Relikt ERA simulation).

Just for reference: The go-to engagement tactic of a Leopard 2 tank is to shot center mass at anything Russian. War Thunder truly features the Relikt that could.
@@KorporalNoobs Same for any other tank in the entirety of history. Aiming is for very close range, everything above 600m goes into center mass, cause GL aiming at something specific and hoping to hit it at range.
Welp its never gonna happen, but moving this thing up to 10.7 would probably suffice. Currently its: 1. armor is actually good (contrary to what appeared to be the popular belief that this was gonna be a 'glass cannon'), more than enough KP to deal with ~ 410 ~ 480 mm of pen which it regularly faces on average (especially at range), and if moved up to 10.7 will still be able to use this in downtiers, and in an uptier it will be at a disadvantage, as it should be, but only armor wise, its clearly got enough fire power to deal with 11.7 MBTs, and equivalent mobility to keep up with everyone. 2. Only facing downtiers right now (unless the player puts it in a higher BR lineup), because 10.3 lineups cant get to 11.7 and the 9.0~9.3 grinders are common, so its a downtier practically every match. 3. It _doesnt_ have HK or thermals, but neither do a lot of tanks at 9.7. So. It should be potent in a downtier, and "balanced" in an uptier at 11.7. I see no reason why it'll do poorly at 10.7, I absolutely see reason why 9.0 tank grinders are kicking themselves right now, because every time they hit the battle button, its an uptier with about 16 of these tanks rolling around. Its pretty bad. And 9.0 tanks are still using 1st or 2nd gen darts, so they have > 400 mm of pen very commonly, meaning they cant even reliably pen this this thing frontally. None of it matters tho! I'm reminded of a certain 8.7, quad-tracked, 130mm doom tank that rolled around at that BR for waaaay too long. So I doubt gaijin will move it currently, particularly with the amount of people playing it/creators praising how fun it is.
now gaijin needs to add a troll vehicle, a custom polish tankette with a super long shell and a 1 mm cannon, or, well, gun it'll probably go like mach 30 and 1 shot anything
im no physics expert, but isnt Arrowhead armor literally designed to counter any short APFSDS by destabilizing it and then causing it to shatter on impact? or is the 292 round just simply longer than the arrowhead itself. sure the 122B+ can tank a few but that just doesnt seem right
And the APFSDS is designed to not ricochet from any type of armour. I think that arrowhead armor just gives you some more armor,but not designed to deflect rounds.
@@patriktoth6258 arrowhead doesnt ricochet. its designed so it pens wich destabilizes the round so it shatters once it hits actual armor. arrowhead is just hollow. basically spaced armor

@@SonsOfLorgar *incorrect!* Strv122B is from the 1990's, it's armour is in fact older. The 2A7V was actually Germany's own initiative and I can nowhere find that it was based on the development of the Strv122's armour, let alone even that of the 122A which is a ridiculous claim. It is better (next to it being newer, so new and better materials are used and there was over 30 years of R&D time in between this) than that of the Strv122's and also better than that of the 122B's. Funny thing even, the Strv122's armour isn't even actually Swedish, it's MEXAS-H which is in fact German. The 2A7V's use brand new produced hulls which were also designed to have the latest D-tech incorperated in the front and thus upgrading the protection to the same level as the turret, which was one of the requirements. They even incorporated the knowledge of the use of their 2A7's and developed further on this. I can go on and on, but you're the one actually being *very* incorrect here and I sincerely implore you to seek it up, hell I will even help you a little and give you a link to the massive bugreport on the 2A7V's armour level which has a lot of official and very good sources link (bugreport on gaijin . net "Leopard 2A7V: hull armour."): community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/xLDgCgt0rWp0
@NotATerrorist-gs9gp In terms of darts, it is functionally impossible to penetrate more than the length of the dart. This is why newer shells such as 829A4 exceed a metre in length.
@@InkTattooHyena Sure other factors matter, but you are not going to reasonably exceed the length of the dart in penetration. Achieving 1000+ out of a 750mm dart is impossible.
@@sturmgeschutze3070 It's a little more complicated, pen depth is indeed dependent on penetrator length but it is absolutely possible to pen more than the length, although not to any extreme margins. Also, a lot of stated pen figures are LoS thickness against a sloped plate. Since APFSDS normalizes, the LoS pen against an angled plate can significantly exceed the LoS pen against a flat plate. The 1000mm figure is probably against a slope.
Or just, y know, give it all stuff regular T-80 has (smokes and ERA, possibly even blowout panels that were implemented later on tanks of same ammo rack style in russia, a T-55 extreme modernization i believe).
The Object 292 is easily an 11.0 tank. Even without thermals, a coax, etc., its gun just shreds through everything at its BR. Doesn’t help that its being spammed now, ruining Ground RB for many who didn’t grind or bought through to it

No it shouldn't. Its misinformation.
Goes to show how weirdly thick relikts are
Relikt is not that thick, below the Relikt there is some space to act as spaced armor
Relikt isn't thick at all, it works by disrupting the penetrator as it passes through it, by exploding the sandwiched plates apart, resulting in a shear force on the penetrator that effectively breaks it up and/or skews its trajectory, before it hits the armour behind the ERA.
It's a truly ingenious concept, replacing many tonnes of heavy and expensive composite armour with lightweight and cheap steel plates and a little explosive filler.
It’s just cus it’s a Russian game mate
This isn’t real life
@@Sumi_S There's many, many simulations online showing how insanely effective Relikt is (th-cam.com/video/N4hiYhxZwAM/w-d-xo.htmlsi=y7FCKGN-IAq-kgkF), in case the fact that NATO militaries have been constantly upgrading their APFSDS rounds and cannons in the last 30 years, wasn't evidence enough that it works.
@@Sumi_SThere's loads of FEM simulations on TH-cam demonstrating just how insanely effective Relikt is (search Relikt ERA simulation).

Best WT Chanel! The most funny too!
Welp its never gonna happen, but moving this thing up to 10.7 would probably suffice. Currently its:
1. armor is actually good (contrary to what appeared to be the popular belief that this was gonna be a 'glass cannon'), more than enough KP to deal with ~ 410 ~ 480 mm of pen which it regularly faces on average (especially at range), and if moved up to 10.7 will still be able to use this in downtiers, and in an uptier it will be at a disadvantage, as it should be, but only armor wise, its clearly got enough fire power to deal with 11.7 MBTs, and equivalent mobility to keep up with everyone.
2. Only facing downtiers right now (unless the player puts it in a higher BR lineup), because 10.3 lineups cant get to 11.7 and the 9.0~9.3 grinders are common, so its a downtier practically every match.
3. It _doesnt_ have HK or thermals, but neither do a lot of tanks at 9.7. So. It should be potent in a downtier, and "balanced" in an uptier at 11.7.
I see no reason why it'll do poorly at 10.7, I absolutely see reason why 9.0 tank grinders are kicking themselves right now, because every time they hit the battle button, its an uptier with about 16 of these tanks rolling around. Its pretty bad. And 9.0 tanks are still using 1st or 2nd gen darts, so they have > 400 mm of pen very commonly, meaning they cant even reliably pen this this thing frontally.
None of it matters tho! I'm reminded of a certain 8.7, quad-tracked, 130mm doom tank that rolled around at that BR for waaaay too long. So I doubt gaijin will move it currently, particularly with the amount of people playing it/creators praising how fun it is.

im no physics expert, but isnt Arrowhead armor literally designed to counter any short APFSDS by destabilizing it and then causing it to shatter on impact? or is the 292 round just simply longer than the arrowhead itself. sure the 122B+ can tank a few but that just doesnt seem right
And the APFSDS is designed to not ricochet from any type of armour. I think that arrowhead armor just gives you some more armor,but not designed to deflect rounds.
@@patriktoth6258 arrowhead doesnt ricochet. its designed so it pens wich destabilizes the round so it shatters once it hits actual armor. arrowhead is just hollow. basically spaced armor

@@SdKfz-gq8bh the arrowhead isn't hollow
@@SdKfz-gq8bh I didnt said the arrowhead will ricochet the round. Its just an external armor

Incorrect. The 122B actually has better armor IRL, the Leo2A7 has slightly improved armor tech shared from the Strv122A development 😊
@@SonsOfLorgar *incorrect!*
Strv122B is from the 1990's, it's armour is in fact older. The 2A7V was actually Germany's own initiative and I can nowhere find that it was based on the development of the Strv122's armour, let alone even that of the 122A which is a ridiculous claim. It is better (next to it being newer, so new and better materials are used and there was over 30 years of R&D time in between this) than that of the Strv122's and also better than that of the 122B's. Funny thing even, the Strv122's armour isn't even actually Swedish, it's MEXAS-H which is in fact German.
The 2A7V's use brand new produced hulls which were also designed to have the latest D-tech incorperated in the front and thus upgrading the protection to the same level as the turret, which was one of the requirements. They even incorporated the knowledge of the use of their 2A7's and developed further on this.
I can go on and on, but you're the one actually being *very* incorrect here and I sincerely implore you to seek it up, hell I will even help you a little and give you a link to the massive bugreport on the 2A7V's armour level which has a lot of official and very good sources

Whoever told you that was lying. The dart is 750mm long, so it cannot penetrate more than 750mm.

@@InkTattooHyena Sure other factors matter, but you are not going to reasonably exceed the length of the dart in penetration. Achieving 1000+ out of a 750mm dart is impossible.
@@sturmgeschutze3070 finally someone who gets it
@@sturmgeschutze3070 It's a little more complicated, pen depth is indeed dependent on penetrator length but it is absolutely possible to pen more than the length, although not to any extreme margins.
Also, a lot of stated pen figures are LoS thickness against a sloped plate. Since APFSDS normalizes, the LoS pen against an angled plate can significantly exceed the LoS pen against a flat plate. The 1000mm figure is probably against a slope.
