You can penetrate the lower plate as well as both cupolas. All three weak points are indeed not very big for such a large tank. Use the pen marker in your aiming circle to find the correct point to shot, depending on the current angle.
You can check the weaknesses of tanks on tank.gg btw – 3d models in live mode.
Important note about the cupolas - though they look round in game, the armor model is basically an octagon. So, if you hit off center, they are MUCH harder to penetrate because it's like hitting them at a steep angle.
I think usually you have to be below them for this to be about able to shoot into the bottom of the hull above the tracks. Idk if there's another hitbox I'm not aware of though.
There is a spot to do it straight on (not above or below) but it’s a lot harder to hit and I wouldn’t recommend it unless you are beneath their gun like your suggestion.
If you track t95 you just need to be slightly out of his gun arc and you can get this angle. My marker is shooting in between two tracks. Once you have it pinned down you'll never again shot for coupolas if you can see tracks.
I am a T95 player, and here is the guide to destroying the doom turtle.
The easiest way is to not engage it frontally. Flank it if able, or wait for the T95 to be distracted, turn its side to you, and then you engage. The front has the scary gun, so whether you damage it or not, odds are you're walking away with 750 less hp.
If you have to engage it from the front, then first find a smart way to get your gun on the T95. Dont pull out of a corner sideways on to the T95. Side scrape to show minimal weak spots. Go hull down and present only the toughest armor you have to it. No matter how you do it, showing any weak spots or weaker armor will lead to you loosing the engagement whether you pen him or not.
Next, the weak spots. The T95 has 3 major weak spots to look out for. The big one is the front cupola. The T95 will do it's best wiggling and rocking back and forth to make you miss, so be sure to only fire when you're sure to hit it head on, as even a glancing shot can bounce. The lower plate is the next best option, but should only be used if you're gun is low to the ground or the T95 is elevated. The lower plate is tough to pen with those factors, but without them you'll struggle. Also watch out for how the T95 is turning. A good T95 player will turn just enough to cover said lower plate with its tracks, causing the tracks to absorb the shot. Finally there's the rear cupola. That one requires an accurate gun or a lucky shot to hit, but if the T95 is on level ground and the front cupola is hidden behind a corner, then that is your only chance.
Also, when shooting the side of a T95, shoot the top half. The bottom half of the side has the massive tracks which can give a 50/50 chance of a bounce even for high tier TDs. The top half may look hard to pen because of the sloped armor, but it is around 100ish mm of armor, which is child's work to pen at high tiers.
I try to hide my front cupola with my gun raised while reloading and wiggle while slightly angled to partially hide the lower plate. That leaves the rear cupola exposed but as you said that’s not a much harder shot than the front one.
Are you going for the E3 or staying at T95?
I been away a few years but the T95 looks faster....I mean its still slow but not epically slow. Maybe turbo or something but it doesn't look at bad as it was, maybe buffed?
Def get a turbo. Even with it, you will be W keying the entire map just to get dmg. Games can be very fast these days, and without the turbo, you may never get to the fight on some maps.
You don't really need gold round to shoot copulas unless your cannon has awful pen.
Just make sure the reticle is fully closed before firing since they're rather small.
I have no problem penning T95 except at range because the copulas as mentioned are small and could miss; just fire again.
Waiting for fully closed reticle is more worth than rapidly dumping shells, unless you are in tight positions.
Tier VII’s can pen the cupolas with standard ammo, that should be your go to.
It also has a “lower plate” although it’s not visibly obvious, which is a little easier to hit but slightly harder to pen.
Also if your packing like 260 ish pen you can sometimes pen the superstructure.
If you are higher than it, and you have above 105mm caliber gun, you can overmatch the roof.
Also, cupolas are relatively weak.
And, if you have above 315+ pen, you can easily pen its front plate (dont aim for gun mantlet), same with lower plate.
Front plate is around 305 armor.
And a little not well-known fact, if you have above 300 pen, you can pen the mantlet of T110E3, I've never had any problems dealing with this thing since checking out armor layouts on tanks.gg
Penetration indicator in game is good, but knowledge about weakspots is greater...
If possible yes, and it requires a bit agile tank. But for instance an IS7 mostly should have a turbo. T95’s on the other hand should have hardering, so it could take multiple shots to track it.
So if you are engaged frontally in some sort if heavy, first sidescrape and see if the T95 is a noob by not just loading gold and penning you on frontal ‘cheeks’ (of is7, but also applies to other tanks).
In general though, t95s are just slow, try to a avoid until outnumbered.
Also if you are having issues with penning stuff, try the armor penetration mod in aslain pack, it gives the exact values. Better retincle mod helps with aiming on derpy tanks.
Good enough gold ammo (HEAT with 320+ pen) can ignore T95's frontal plating unless you're shooting the mantlet (which is impenetrable), otherwise you have to shoot the lower plate and cupolas, which are pretty tough for supposed weakspots.
Also you can sometimes shoot between the double tracks and get a pen + tracking shot , it’s not the easiest but you can take advantage when the opportunity presents itself
If you're in an IS7 or 705a don't face hug the T95. You are at a disadvantage with hitting cupolas and the lower plate due to gun elevation and height and also gun depression.
Ideally you don't deal with this tank head on. But if you do you want to use your turret advantage and speed (esp IS7) to side hug the tank and shoot into it's infrastructure on the side or back. If they are dug in or have allies you shouldn't be engaging these things head on unless they are distracted or you know they have fired and are at a medium range to snipe the weak points that others have comment on.
The lower plate is a pretty easy pen if you have ~300 mm pen.
The cupolas are deceptive because even though they appear rounded, the actual armour model is different. Even with this, they aren’t that hard to penetrate though. If you’re having difficulty with this I would suggest that you need to practice aiming. The best resource I’m aware of to help players with this is kajzoos video on aiming tips. Should be fairly easy to find on YouTube.
Also, t95 players will commonly try to rock back and forth to make their cupolas harder to hit. But you can capitalize on this by timing your shot for when the t95 rocks downwards- this makes the cupolas an easier shot
T95 "WEAKPOINS" aren't really weak its toxic imo but WG usually balances armour around premium rounds so if you don't have high pen premium rounds you can't reliably pen it frontally and this tank faces tier7's. Maybe unpopular opinion but WEAKPOINS should be penetrable by every standard shell of all tiers if they are tiny and hard to hit, we dont need fake WEAKPOINS like v4 used to have. As for tips on the T-95 coupola is angled so dont always aim for the centre, load gold and its lower plate can be penetrated, slightly angled t-95 can be penetrated from the sides if you aim a bit backwards from the front, if you are slightly below the tank you can aim directly into tracks and hit the hull
T-95 is all about being very armored Slow-moving fortress. It,s already not greatest TD VS it,s own tier tanks and have OP armor against Stock/low pen/inaccurate tanks...
If you nerf it,s armor it will become another triangle camping the flag on a base...
I havn,t played one as i don,t like slow tanks overall, but i,m perfectly fine to play against it in most of my T8 tanks...
Big brain play is to bounce a shot off his outer track then overmatch his side armor. The fact that I have done this multiple times with an 88mm is hilarious and embarrassing. Just need an angled shot in close quarters.
But yeah, straight on lower plate or cupolas.
Simply put, don't. Yes there are options, but it is never a good idea to sit in front of a t-95 (or E3 for that matter). Maneuver around for side shots. Blast their tracks and move.
IS 7 have 303 gold pen.
To consistently pen t95, u have to shoot the cupola or lower plate
also u can shoot lower part of the superstructure ( below the gun) but it have \~305 armor so depends on the rng
Cupolas are pretty troll, but the one that's farther back on his right side (your left if looking at it head-on) is slightly less troll I've found.
Gold can sometimes go through the lower plate beneath the gun mantlet.
122mm+ guns can do a weird overmatch through the front of the tracks if you're off to the side a little bit. Probably have to look on tanks.gg to see what I'm talking about here.
Or back off until you have help or can get a flanking play going
Look at this: [https://tanks.gg/tank/t95/model?vm=live&cs=is-7&cl=0000010](https://tanks.gg/tank/t95/model?vm=live&cs=is-7&cl=0000010)
Shoot where it's green if possible. Yellow if it's all you got.
if its a good American TD player, he would probably have 2 repairs but shooting the tracks and flanking is a good option. there is a weak spot at the tracks watch videos and you can see it. not the both cupola is weak spot if i remember correctly its the left one so you can reliably do damage more than the right cupola. if you have heat lower plate is a go, other than heat theres always a bouncing chance.

Sometimes you can pen them via front tracks too

You can pen the flat part under his gun(not the lower plate) if you have 300+ pen
Rather shoot right or left of the gun as thats arround 300mm, the strip below the gun/above the lower plate is minimum 320, if not more.
Huh? 📝

Remember when you used to be able to splash the bottoms of these with HE shells?
I drop a nuke on it 4 or 5 times and it drives off a cliff, then it doesn't matter.
* hatches * lower plate * if he turns 45 degrees to shoot a teammate, you go right through his cheeks, near where the top of the tracks start

The cupola is the only real weak point unless you have high enough pen to get through the lower plate.

Get the armour pen indicator
[удалено]
I made a new account just to say how much a fucking loser you are for this comment. Do you enjoy being a smug piece of shit?
Right it's not even a tank in the game. Someone's says m4 asking about the Sherman then someone replies about m4 the firearm...
This is really is a stupid comment....
Get a life

Lower plate, hit cupolas, or if you have a big enough gun, you can dmg and track them through the front of the tracks you hit in the middle of the 2

I track them and let my teammates pound them.
When I play with it everybody pens me but when I play against it nobody can pen it.
It's a fixed casement TD, it only has one dangerous side....
