Tank weak spots.

[MaCs&TeCNiNeS]

Abrams
Side: 3 shots
Rear: 2 shots
Front: 4 shots
Side Treads: 2 shots
Front Treads: 2 shots
Front Turret: 4 shots
Side Turret: 3 shots
Back Turret: 3 shots

Type 98
Side: 3 shots
Rear: 2 shots
Front: 4 shots
Side Treads: 3 shots
Front Treads: 2 shots
Front Turret: 4 shots
Side Turret: 3 shots
Back Turret: 2 shots

T-90
Back: 3 shots
Side: 3 shots
Front: 4 shots
Side Treads: 3 shots
Front Treads: 2 shots
Front Turret: 4 shots
Side Turret: 3 shots
Back Turret: 2 shots

BTR-60
2 shots in every area except the side turret.

LAV-25
2 shots anywhere.

WZ551(I think that is the name)
2 shots anywhere.

Linebacker AKA Bradley
2 shots anywhere.

Tunguska
2 shots anywhere.

Conclusion for the lazy: Go for the front treads and rear of tanks whenever possible. As for APC's, most take 2 shots at max. The BTR-60's side turret can take 3 hits. The Linebacker and Tunguska can only take 2 hits.

Re: Tank weak spots.

Also I heard at least on the arbrams there was a magical one-shot kill spot. My understanding is it's just where the turret meets the main body.

Not sure though.

Thanks for posting this, good info.

I read that thread also but I have not been able to duplicate it nor has anyone else I've asked in my clan.

Re: Tank weak spots.

Sorry for being dense but two shots of what? Tank rounds? AT rockets? My understanding is that they’re somewhat different…

Thanks for the tips. I always shot at the threads, but didn't know that the front threads were the weakest.

i've done it ,shoot at the back off the turret were the turret connects to the hull ,it was 1 shot and boom (this was on a empty non damaged tank) dont know if it is the same on a loaded tank
maybe it was a lucky shot i dont know but it did KABOOOM

Re: Tank weak spots.

One time i hited the abrams with one-shoot but never more. I might have been damaged a little bit, but try to shoot in the middle.

Re: Tank weak spots.

What about the rear treads? I would assume they're weaker... but hey, apparently the wheels will destroy a Blackhawk so who knows!

Re: Tank weak spots.

Well, I didnt think it would work, but it does! From my impression of the game, I thought DICE would be too thick-arsed to implement a damage model like this. He-ho, I stand corrected =)

1 shot in the engine will take 15 bars off a tank

Re: Tank weak spots.

there has to be a one shot spot for all vehicles. i read that the LAV and BTR have magic spots and i am sure the tanks do too. seems lame there it takes 2 missles to kill a tank

I have taken out the Abrams by hitting it in the rear turret directly where it connects to the hull.

Its damn near impossible to do in combat though.
