you only get -5 depress at the front with the E-50 now, -6 on the E-50M
only -8 on the sides. apparently

yes, i liked the old one, had better shape, but i think the turret nerf(higher chances of hitting the flat zone) comes with the ufp buff

SS, can you write an article about the mantlet model change of Tiger H in 8.8? It got a nice trollish mantlet that can actually bounce now.

As I noticed: front depression on E-50 is still about -6 degress, only sides has -8.

If you don’t mind having the mantlet sinking into the roof at full depression…

P II didn’t have clipping issues like the E-50 (the Schmalturm was designed to have -8 depression on the Panther and other potential users), all the devs had to do was to change the value.

Well, the Panther II actually has it’s old model back from the days it’s been a top german medium at tier9, so the gun model of a 8.8 is actually a 10.5 and the mantlet should be different aswell.
