The M1A2 abrams turret is anywhere between 1000 and 1,000,000 millimeters of armor, it’s sabot is 1 billion horsepower

I know the Abrams are supposed to be loud but in Sprocket it sounds like a top fuel dragster lol

actuelly the abrams isnt loud at all the jet engine is "loud" but loud in a different way and the tracks are rubber coated, the tank is even nicknamed whispering death

Hey Panzerpaw! you can actually get realistic layered armor in sprocket but you use the armor plates in the crew tab, its hard to design but pretty fun! I also ised to think it didnt work until a bunch of testing, layered armor in the compartments tab doesnt stack.

I've learned with a few designs that the Sprocket game updated to give riveted and placed plates or tracks/wheels armor value. You can organize them very tediously at several opposing angles and make a steel/air composite armor on tanks with mostly flat angles and land in similar weight groups as the Abrams. I have something I call the Gladiator roughing 64 to 70 tonnes and has almost 534mm of frontal protection on the turret.

Very nice model, and your video was immensely entertaining as per usual but I was made rather curious by the Panther penetrating the Abrams so I did some real world research for what I could find declassified and this is what I found. Going to say it bluntly, doesn't really matter where a Panther hits an Abrams that 75mm shell isn't going through. The only real chance it'd have (besides attacking the sides at close range obviously) would be to hope that maybe a shell that deflects off the upper glacis may bounce up and jam the turret ring. Though that weak spot is often incredibly overstated it is a much bigger problem when taking into account full caliber shells than sub-caliber shells like modern APFSDS. The problem being is that full-caliber shells "bounce" when deflected retaining a good bit of energy while APFSDS loses most of it's energy upon deflected due to the rod shattering (it's still dangerous but much less so that initially and probably not enough to actually threaten the turret at all). Going off what's available to civilians, completely unclassified stuff, we only have rough estimates of modern armor effectiveness which are likely nowhere near the actual values. However with those estimated armor thicknesses and the known penetrative capability of the Panther's KwK42 75mm gun we can pretty confidently say that it wouldn't stand a chance against an Abrams' frontal armor. For those curious at point blank range with the Panther's best round was PzGr.40/42 APCR which could penetrate a maximum of 265mm at point blank. However, it is known that it performed horribly against angled plates with a slope as moderate as 30 degrees from vertical the penetrative performance plummeted to sub 190mm. The M1A2 Abrams (as far as we can estimate with the actual data being completely classified) has roughly 1000mm of Kinetic Energy protection on the turret cheeks, about 700-800mm of Kinetic Energy protection on the lower glacis, and an estimated 376mm of Kinetic Energy protection on the upper glacis. However, the upper glacis is so steeply sloped (82.8 degrees from vertical, a mere 7.2 degrees from perfectly horizontal) that even older APFSDS shells are prone to shattering on it. The Panther's PzGr.40/42 simply wouldn't stand a chance front on unless the Abrams was coming down a slope that exposed the upper glacis as the plate itself is a mere 38-51mm (depending on variant) thick and gets it's effectiveness from hardness and the absurdly steep angle. However from the side the Panther has somewhat better luck. The side protecting the driver position is still impenetrable to it's gun being estimated to be protected by armor up to 280mm effective against Kinetic Energy penetrators and the side of the turret are almost impenetrable save for at ranges shorter than 500m due to their minimum estimated protection being 257mm against Kinetic Energy penetrators. However, the sides of the middle and rear hull are far less protected. The center of the side hull is estimated between 100-120mm effective against Kinetic Energy and the rear of the hull side a mere 55-80mm against Kinetic Energy. Conclusion: A Panther would need to get within 2.5km of the M1A2's side and hit specifically the center or rear of the side hull or make it around behind the Abrams to have a chance to penetrate the tank. However, if this is true to life WW2 the Panther is out of luck because it's best shell was in extraordinarily low supply meaning most only carried APCBC for anti-tank work not APCR. That shell could only manage 190mm of penetration against a perfectly flat plate at point blank range. This would change the maximum range the Panther could engage and stand a good chance of penetration from 2.5km to 1.5km. The very rear of the hull sides are vulnerable the whole way out past 3.5km but they make up the smallest portion of the hull's side protection.

@PanzerPaw Жыл бұрын

That was an interesting read. I think it's more to do with the game itself. Because, while the hit came up as a penetration, it didn't actually do damage. So it might even just be the way hits are registered. 🤔

@ThatGuyOrby Жыл бұрын

@@PanzerPaw That's very possible, from what I've seen of Sprocket it looks like it can be pretty finnicky. I'm glad you enjoyed my little stat breakdown. I'm sure given that these are simply the declassified general estimates of the armor they're likely pretty far off from the real thing but it gives a rough idea.

Don't forget any m1 variant that America uses itself after m1a1 (basically m1a1HC or after and is under american only use, exports will not have this) will have depleted uranium armor and DP sabots. Non America used Abrams will have the DP composition removed. America send M1A2 to Ukraine, they did remove the DP armor and didn't give Ukraine DP based sabots, Ukraine at most will have the M829A1. As I assume A2 is the DP filled

@@PanzerPaw There is a way to do sort of composite armor in Sprocket, you wedge dozens of 20-30mm thick plates at a 45-60 degree angle in between two thicker plates, this method is very very tedious and you have to do it for every singal plate so for me to make a K2 with it took over 48 hours in game and over 3 months irl. Doing this makes the tank near indestructible with the turret front of my K2 having over 1000mm of KE protection in game but it also weighs 96 tons. P E T T Y on yt has a video on how to do it.
