Update 9.20.1: Armour Changes, KV-4 & Obj.416 HD Models
1 min readUpdate 9.20.1 will bring further armour changes to some new HD model tanks. Players have asked for pictures of Object 416 and KV-4 with their respective top turrets, and I managed to get some pictures of them.
Another question was if the Bat.-Châtillon 155 55 could now equip ventilation since the turret is now enclosed. After checking the list of equipment, I can confirm this arty won’t be able to fit ventilation, the front of the enclosure is still open, allowing the fumes to come out.

love they buffed also buffed the turret cheeks for the STB 1, so not only just a visual change, but also a slight buff.
The gun mantlet is now much stronger as well, fantastic.
It is strange how they are removing all the driving visor weakspots (like here on KV-4) but in the same time adding them on M6.
Well, now the STB-1 is very much like the AMX-30 now. Did’nt Wargaming just change from a Leopard-1 to an STB-1.
because otherwise tier 6 tank can penetrate the KV4 with gold
we cant have that.
i mean its not like tier 8 ever had a problem penetrating the 180 mm mid plate.(except for tanks like the 112 and IS6)
The pictures are actually swapped. The picture on the left (the one labeled 9.20) is actually the updated model.
