Maybe could be a viable medium tank… a brother of “future” AMX30 but more agile and with an USA “that ass” hehehe.

Germany and other NATO States surely uses Tungstencarbid Penetrators. The effectiviness of them is the same as depletet uranium penetrators (Some sources say they are better then DUP)

APU is the Auxilary Power Unit, a backup engine that can generate enough electrical power to run the tank systems when the main engine is offline. Im not sure, but Id hazard a yes.
Effectively a Tank with no APU would be knocked out instantly by an engine hit (manual control only, no fire control systems). Also, theyre good for decreasing fuel sink while Idling.

If your asking if uses DUP (Depleted Uranium Penetrator’s) the answer is unknown.

In all only the UK and USA have declared the use of DUP ammunition in there arsenal.
France, Russia, China, India, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Israel, Bahrain, Egypt, Kuwait, Pakistan, Thailand, Iraq and Taiwan. all manufacture DU weapons and are known to have them but have not declared using them in conflict or in current forces arsenal.

But my guess is yes it uses DUP or has the ability to use it.
i know our Leopard 2′s here in canada dont but we dont use Any DUP here all tungsten

Common problem for a lot of tanks/guns. For example, the long 88 and the 20pdr both could not penetrate the glacis (100mm version) of the T-54, although they could pen the turret (opposite of in-game).

Russians are so proud of IS tanks they renamed IS-8 into T-10…

There is a thing called mobility kill IRL…

When you don’t include engine block, Israel’s knockoff chobham armour isn’t all that great.

And it looks like it’s wood on the inside, lol.

Also, does Merkava IV even have APU?

Yea I guess in all honestly I am somewhat far from the average audience in both age and amount of battles. I rarely enjoy gameplay below tier7 myself so I am personally looking forward to tanks that can do well in the higher tiers. I guess that already brings up why I am not excited by the actual EU tanks portrayed up until now and I shouldn’t make it sound like an issue with the EU tanks so much

Make them fun and non-ugly and I’ll drive them at some point!
