It really does feel like Gaijin hates Israel in game. Even besides the extra ammo thing, the fireproof containers don't work, poor reload, small ready rack, the horrible turret protection (including some glitches with the mk4 where it says upwards of 1000mm of protection, but can be pend by sub 300mm pen rounds), and how they model the engine, transmission, external fuel tank, external and internal armor as only around 400mm. The engine one in particular is infuriating. Just the engine is ~ 6 feet long, and about 3.75 feet tall (or about 2 meters by 1.1 meters). Assuming that an average engine is about 1/3 empty space for things like piston chambers and such, that makes just the CAST IRON engine block around 4 feet of protection. Now because cast iron is quite brittle we'll say that we can half that again to be really generous for protection against tank munitions. That still puts us at 2 feet of protection, or about 600mm of armored protection. Now take this and add the transmission which has very little open space and is made of aluminum and sits at around 3 feet using some basic deduction using size reference (i'll also cut this in half), the fuel tank, then about 70mm of extra external and internal armor, and you have close to 970mm of just metal in the way. Now assuming the fuel tank has gas in it, then we get into the complex nature of liquid compression, but just to make it easy, lets round it to 1000mm of protection.... This is a generous estimation on the average protection that the powerpack should give. Now in game, it can juuust about stop an m1 firing M774, which maxes out at around 372mm of pen. Anything higher and it goes through and will usually kill the whole crew. lets do some more rounding and say that its about 400mm needed to pen the powerpack and get the shot. That is less than half of the generous estimation. Oh, and surprise, I was using the merk 2 engine which is smaller.
