Apparently the M1A1HA has "650 mm RHAe" turret frontal protection against KE rounds according to the UK. Note that this is limited only to the turret front modules, as the side armor was not improved. So over a 60° frontal arc, the tank still remained vulnerable to much weaker rounds.
 
Also note the rate of fire for CR1: 3-4 rounds per minute!

I cannot provide an exact break-down of what went wrong with the Puma VJTF. Don't have data on that.
 
But based on various news reports, the following happened:
Puma VJTF completes three exercises with acceptable availability (two with more than 80%, one with just 67%) to the fourth exercise, the unit did not - maybe they could not, maybe they weren't allowed or wanted to simulate worst case - spare parts and most of the tools required for fixing the Puma VJTF priority for over night repairs was given to Leopard 2A7V (makes somewhat sense, if you don't have spares/technicians/tools for other vehicles...) fourth exercise results in no vehicle being left operational, a complaint e-mail is written by major general von Butler and leaked "by accident" to the press. A photograph showing error messages on a Puma VJTF IFV's screen was apparently also shared big media fall-out regarding "bad, broken Puma IFV" apparently ten of the 18 Puma VJTFs were just shy of their scheduled maintenance, while two already had missed it. Apparently the Puma VJTFs were passed from multiple times from one company to another, resulting in a loss of maintenance industry mentions that they have not been given access to the vehicles to fix them (even though specialists from industry were on-site); they complain that the German Army intentionally waited until all vehicles were broken down (maybe for the headlines?) an investigation is launched, eight vehicles are sent to Rheinmetall's facility in Unterlüß for further inspections, the other ten return to Regen in Bavaria (unit's garrison location) industry claims that all vehicles can be fixed within 2-3 weeks (in one statement, they even said until end of the year 2022)   Now German newspapers - based on industry sources - claim that only two Puma VJTF IFVs are seriously broken/"badly damaged":
the heavily damaged vehicles are one vehicle as a result of a cable fire and one with damaged turret ring (previously incorrectly translated as "sprocket", because the newspapers use the wrong terminology) in one vehicle, a fuze was blown in another vehicle, a screen stopped working after being accidentally kicked in one case, the unit report that the auxiliary heating did not work... but the crew only forgot to turn it on in one case, a screw of a missile launcher was loose
Most vehicles can be repaired until January 2023.

Of course，War thunder is incredible.In real world,the weak area in 99As turret maybe even bigger.
 
They didn't fix the weakspot at all.

The armour layout of ZTZ99A is foolish，totally a disaster in warthunder and real world.

A interesting size comparsion.If it is right，K2 is actully as tall as M1 abrams.

I thought maybe K2NO/PL have excellent armor protection,but the baseline version not.The distribution of special armor looks terrible and enemy fire will easily hit ammunition.
