From what I understand, the armor can get such effective thickness because it is a cast turret. The game regards it as one piece of armor, and thus the game reads the "length" of it when you're looking at it from the front.
That’s because it’s volumetric, so it can find points where the LOS thickness is as thick as the entire length of the turret at points. The German version is one plate of a static thickness, it hasn’t been given the volumetric treatment yet.
@@ideadlift20kg83 to be fair, the only one that would really benefit from it is the C. The ZiS-5, L-11, B and E, 1S and 85 wouldn’t really get much out of it. Maybe the 1S and 85 would, partly.
Just a reminder that spook absolutely hated this vehicle If you come up against an is2, there is literally nothing you can do and no where you can pen it
Yeah, that's the Finnish KV-1 in a nutshell. If you get consistent downtiers to 4.0, it's not very bad on paper, but the moment you get up tiers to 6.0? Your goose is fucking cooked. Tiger 1s, Panthers, IS-2s, hell even the M4/T26, all of these vehicles can easily ignore your armor since they have 160mm+ of pen and are practically invulnerable from the front against anything you try to throw at them.
@@no-legjohnny3691 thing is you don't dominate full down tiers like the KV-1E when it gets a full downtier, and you're kinda ass in the full uptier. You're basically marginally better than a KV-1E for a full BR difference.
And he's right. Odd like any other yt shows only good games. But I actually met him in the opponet team while he was playing this kv. In uptiers this tank is completely useless, everything can pen you unless they should the turret
I'm F2P and I'm always sad when an awesome vehicle is added and it's a premium. I'm not spending even $15 on a digital tank, no matter how cool or OP it may be.

It is a cast turret variant, isn't it? It looks like in these turret cheek areas volumetric system simply shits the bed. Since casting is a single piece - it basically takes the whole length of a turret as thickness at certain angles.
@@aaronfalcon3152 I have the entire British ground tree unlocked besides the Chally 3 haha. I just usually face them in vehicles that I play a lot, which are not great against them.
Mr. OddBawZ sir I have something for you to try. I've been recently playing the Japan tree and I only have top tier Planes and low tier tanks. So when I wanted to play the japanese tanks I found something you might like, the Chi-Ha LG, a ww2 naval gun on a cart. So obviously I did what everyone would do and put my F-16J on my lineup with that tank. On the first game I killed an Abrams. And I'm not good, so I thought it would be fun to see someone who's better at Ground RB than I am try it and I would love to see it.
Literally in the same boat as you. I got the cherry blossom skin for the Japanese F16 from twitch drops a while back and it was such a nice camo I dropped all my other nations and grinded the Japanese air tree for like three months just to get it. I don’t use it though I suck at top tier air, it’s just a beautiful hangar Queen. Still haven’t unlocked my first Rank II Japanese ground vehicle 😅
Something that wasn't mentioned here, but that i noticed when i first looked at its armour. The hull MG. It just serves as extra armour on this tank, because there isn't a hole in the armour plate behind it for a machinegun to poke through. It is, for all intents and purposes, an armour plate with a wart that serves as more armour. This is unlike any other KV-1 in the game, by the way.
I know im late on this, but volumetric adds layers of armor together, so on a turret with variable armor, if you hit a corner where all 4 pieces meet, all 4 pieces armor thickness is added together for the penetration calculation. Even though in reality it is only as strong as the weakest plate. It also means if you line up like 2 or 3 pieces of armor on top of each other on a t34 or kv1 turret face, some of the armor thickness can exceed 500mm.
it's such a high thickness because it's simulating the turret side armor behind the turret frontal armor. Most tanks in WT just apply a thickness to a razor thin plane instead of an actual volumetric thickness.
Another great video.. thx need to revisit Sweden... my favorite nation in WT.. but 5.0... haven´t done that in a while. Thx!! keep going mate.. your videos are great fun
This video was so huge for me! I shelled out for the German kv1 a while back hoping to use it to grind the German tree easier but gave up on it after just dying constantly while not accomplishing much. Recently I've given the tank another chance with the new goal of farming Lions cause I'm running short but I've still been having survivability issues. I would have never thought to angle as much as he was in the video cause the heaviest tanks I normally play are Sherman's with shit side armor. I'm normally getting cheek penned or the front plate penned since I'm only angling slightly. That 45ish degrees of angle he's holding though makes good use of that higher side armor the tank has while also making that driver hatch weak spot so much harder to hit. Hopefully I can start making great use of my kw1c now!
I do think its worth remembering that the german KV1 with the medium 75 has absolutely awful mantlet armor(i believe its the same as the PzIVF or G) and a fat cupola to snipe.
Yeah he literally only shows full downtiers for the most part with only one fight against a T34-85 in which he died to it. It kinda doesn't prove his point and really kinda feels like he picked his clips to only side sith his point.
@PimpekRook would be nice if he tried to explain that this tank is generally only going to be goo in downtiers instead of stating it's balanced. No it's not, it's stuck in compression hell. A tank thats only good in downtiers is not a balanced tank. When stuff like the IS1 exist at 5.0 the KV-1A has no reason to sit there also.
i think it is because kv1e technically isn't part of the techtree, like the maus, but it's only my theory, i guess kv1b is same br as it's literally same vehicle? idk
Would love to have a heavy tank in the swedish tree that is not locked behind premium. All tech trees overall need more of their fun vehicles being in the tech tree, not just filling it up with shermans and locking all the fun stuff behind premium.
I don't think the corner is a bug, it looks like it has a really tall turret ring that extends all the way up to the bottom of the mantlet. Tbh they should probably make the reload longer on it because Id wager it makes the turret insanely cramped. I'd feel sorry for it being at 5.0 if it wasn't in exactly the same boat as anyone facing it with a US 75mm or equivalent, any casual player that doesn't know that drivers port and next to the gun are its only weak spots is going to think its basically immortal and the zis-5 angle pen is enough to get through almost anything US in a downtier without having to even think
the armor value is based on the entire turret being 1 piece. from the rear it goes over 1000+mm of protection on the edges. I wonder if the volumetric calculates it that way in game?
nuh 4.3 is a bit low for it 4.7 would be fine and better and i just want to remind you this thing will do better at 4.7 since mostly full down tiers and almost never full up tiers so it wont suffer too much
Video request: You, Spook and Phly if hes available do the Object 775 in full pancake mode using the hydraulic suspension and derp around as flat as can be

I just came to say if you got 3.3k sp and didn't get a nuke it's because you weren't playing at a battle rating where you CAN get a nuke. Might it be that you're playing low BR?
I don't know why people seem to be mad when they add this vehicle as premium. It's just a KV1. They doesn't lock a unique play style behind paywall, you can just play other tech-tree KV1 if you like it. Rather I would be angry if they locked the Pvkv4 behind paywall and had this KV1 in the tech-tree.
People aren't mad because it's just a kv-1 or it's just a premium. People are (probably) mad because it does lock out a unique play style for a nation which could never rely on it's own armor. You can't even grind out any of the battle pass challenges that require a heavy tank without switching to a different nation. I don't know about other people, but I really enjoyed sweden because I was got to experience fighting all 3 of the major nations while also having fairly solid lineups. I don't particularly want to play another nation until 3.7-4.7 just to play a kv-1.
@@chocboy5640 Oh thanks, I see. I play Sweden And Japan a lot but I never bother the battle pass. So I didn't noticed that they don't have heavy tanks.
I remember finding out this vehicle can tank 105 heat fs or dart on its turret at like day 5 of the update and forum user being the smart people they are told me I was dumb and was hitting the side armor which I wasnt lol. Dont get how they find it normal for a kv1 to have 2 meters of steel on its turret.
Watching players hear tanks makes me wish I had a headset instead of speakers (headsets are uncomfortable, fight me :P). If you want a challenge video, play with engine sounds off to show how much they help
You unfortunately cannot turn off engine sound as far as I know and keep other sound on. So the challenge video would have to be just mute master volume.
@@DaReaperZ I thought there was a general engine sound, but booting up the game, there's actually sliders for both your own and other players' engine sounds
@@Mohenjo_Daro_ yeah unfortunately. But I see now that you can turn off other players engine volumes, but leave your own on. That'd be an interesting challenge for sure.
bro if you want to the protection analysis and got the object 292 gun and then angled the Finnish kv-1 just right the object would not be able to pen it
I agree, this KV-1 is an outstanding vehicle even at 5.0. It can kill pretty much anything at its BR and above in the hands of a skilled/experienced player. People who complain about it either A. Haven’t played it, or B. They’re so used to seal clubbing with Russia’s KV-1 that using one at a higher BR is a skill check they clearly aren’t passing.
I mean, I play the Russian KV-1E at 4.7 to 5.0 pretty consistently, and it's pain, but you can technically play it and still do well, taking hits even from tiger 1s and panthers with perfect play, but the KV-1E also has marginally better armour than the Swedish KV-1 M1942 from most angles at the cost of a worse gun, except the gun on both is abysmal at 5.0+. The KV-1E is a 3.0 Gun with 5.0 Armour, making it 4.0(Logical). This is a 3.3? Gun (Same as the premium Matilda, just about as good as the Chaffee's gun), with essentially the same armour, and now it's 5.0?? (KV-1E's Armour is spaced so has somewhat better HEAT protection and is also thicker on most of the sides by a few mil. (ignoring cast armour being trolly). Frontally its virtually the same except for the upper front plate which has an extra 100mm effective.) The issue though is that it has cast armour, which means you can't effectively angle the turret as easily because you will essentially always be showing some point frontally, which leads to it being easier to destroy if the enemy just points and shoots. Compare this to the KV-1E's applique volumetric hell and its not particularly better. This is also completely ignoring the fact that the KV-85 and KV-1C are also at 5.0, which are much better vehicles (mainly KV-1C, i'l accept the armour on the KV-85 is meh). Really it should be 4.7, KV-1 Zis5 and E/B should be 4.3.
So what about my KV-220 with 100mm armor all around. I reload faster than you and have better armor. Its an incredibly mid vehicle that fails to to anything special outside of have armor that makes players think it's a god. Even in my VK I still bring it up to 6.0 does that mean it should be 6.0? The KV-1A just is a victim of BR compression and being Over BRed.
So the german one is still much better i would guess. Same BR but a much better cannon with sameish armor? And you get the embodiment of incompetence in your team that would have penned you if are not on the german side.

People aren't mad because it's just a kv-1 or it's just a premium. People are (probably) mad because it does lock out a unique play style for a nation which could never rely on it's own armor. You can't even grind out any of the battle pass challenges that require a heavy tank without switching to a different nation. I don't know about other people, but I really enjoyed sweden because I was got to experience fighting all 3 of the major nations while also having fairly solid lineups. I don't particularly want to play another nation until 3.7-4.7 just to play a kv-1.
@@chocboy5640 Oh thanks, I see. I play Sweden And Japan a lot but I never bother the battle pass. So I didn't noticed that they don't have heavy tanks.
I hope you post some videos of vehicles that are getting removed before they actually get removed lol
It's only a 3 day sale
That makes sense I’m grinding Russia and went against this tank and got 4 non pens before it killed me like it’s a menace bruh
I remember finding out this vehicle can tank 105 heat fs or dart on its turret at like day 5 of the update and forum user being the smart people they are told me I was dumb and was hitting the side armor which I wasnt lol. Dont get how they find it normal for a kv1 to have 2 meters of steel on its turret.
THE BOTS ARE CRAZY LOL 🤖🤖🤖🤖
Could you do another video on a spitfire of some description please Odd?
Watching players hear tanks makes me wish I had a headset instead of speakers (headsets are uncomfortable, fight me :P). If you want a challenge video, play with engine sounds off to show how much they help
You unfortunately cannot turn off engine sound as far as I know and keep other sound on. So the challenge video would have to be just mute master volume.
@@DaReaperZ I thought there was a general engine sound, but booting up the game, there's actually sliders for both your own and other players' engine sounds
@@Mohenjo_Daro_ yeah unfortunately. But I see now that you can turn off other players engine volumes, but leave your own on. That'd be an interesting challenge for sure.
bro if you want to the protection analysis and got the object 292 gun and then angled the Finnish kv-1 just right the object would not be able to pen it
This thing is the same BR as the VK lmao xD
Hey odd you should play the Ikv 72 it's a great TD
spookston: but the pen low 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Damn! I wish im facing this bunch of clueless enemies on sweden one day too. 🤦♂️
you should do some of your old intros
Dang, the Gun’s worse than the Churchill’s Cannon
Do USA 5.7, it’s been struggling
I agree, this KV-1 is an outstanding vehicle even at 5.0. It can kill pretty much anything at its BR and above in the hands of a skilled/experienced player. People who complain about it either A. Haven’t played it, or B. They’re so used to seal clubbing with Russia’s KV-1 that using one at a higher BR is a skill check they clearly aren’t passing.
I mean, I play the Russian KV-1E at 4.7 to 5.0 pretty consistently, and it's pain, but you can technically play it and still do well, taking hits even from tiger 1s and panthers with perfect play, but the KV-1E also has marginally better armour than the Swedish KV-1 M1942 from most angles at the cost of a worse gun, except the gun on both is abysmal at 5.0+. The KV-1E is a 3.0 Gun with 5.0 Armour, making it 4.0(Logical). This is a 3.3? Gun (Same as the premium Matilda, just about as good as the Chaffee's gun), with essentially the same armour, and now it's 5.0??
(KV-1E's Armour is spaced so has somewhat better HEAT protection and is also thicker on most of the sides by a few mil. (ignoring cast armour being trolly). Frontally its virtually the same except for the upper front plate which has an extra 100mm effective.) The issue though is that it has cast armour, which means you can't effectively angle the turret as easily because you will essentially always be showing some point frontally, which leads to it being easier to destroy if the enemy just points and shoots. Compare this to the KV-1E's applique volumetric hell and its not particularly better.
This is also completely ignoring the fact that the KV-85 and KV-1C are also at 5.0, which are much better vehicles (mainly KV-1C, i'l accept the armour on the KV-85 is meh).
Really it should be 4.7, KV-1 Zis5 and E/B should be 4.3.
So what about my KV-220 with 100mm armor all around. I reload faster than you and have better armor. Its an incredibly mid vehicle that fails to to anything special outside of have armor that makes players think it's a god. Even in my VK I still bring it up to 6.0 does that mean it should be 6.0? The KV-1A just is a victim of BR compression and being Over BRed.
The gun sucks for its br just like the jumbo, but at least the jumbo reloads fast
@agustinquiroga9541 and has a stabilizer and a 50 cal to break tracks and has good armor.
So what do you do against panthers that I find every game? It seems to have pretty much the same effective armour as the kv1 zis at 4.7
Could you play the daimler armoured car at 7.7 to show the fox who the OG armoured car is? Pleeeease
Odd can you play the CV 90105 as a sniper with it’s ATGM
ive never seen this tank ever 😭
How much is gaijin paying you to call this kv1 good?
So as you got game pretty much up to almost clockwork style, why not try it with debuff of booze or similiar?
could you play the british m109a1 but use proxy shells only
The armor on the turret has to be a bug
Once it's fixed how will it be any better than KV-1 Zis-5 which sits at 4.7?
that thing is heavier than is-3
So the german one is still much better i would guess. Same BR but a much better cannon with sameish armor? And you get the embodiment of incompetence in your team that would have penned you if are not on the german side.
Hmm how strange the new prenium version of a tank is much better than the f2p version
I swear Swedish get everything beside a heavy tank 😂
Play the Cromwell RP-3 please❤❤❤
