The t28 protoype needs some love.

Draschel: 76mm makes a huge difference. Lets look at the numbers. Don't use 70 degrees, because that is ricochet angle. That means null, as any tank with 41+ can do it. Lets use an applicable angle of 65 degrees, as a usable angle extended past ricochet angle. 51mm @65 is 102mm effective thickness. Keep in mind, this is without an AP or APCR shell over 2x bore size. So the normalization value is not 2x. With a bore size over 2x, which is fairly easy as it only means 105mm, it is even less. 76mm @65 is 152mm effective. This is 50mm extra armor. And while it will not keep you safe against most threats, such as 175 pen from common 100 and 122 mid-tier guns, it will stop alot of mid-tier light tank and med tank AP shells that frankly current 51mm sides has no chance stopping. 76mm sides effectively removes NEARLY EVERY x2 normalization opportunity. only exception FVs. It also removes pesky HE penetrations like from EBR75, Excalibur, or IS6. There is a back plate, behind the turret that needs to be increased too, or it remans a horrible weakspot that also gives you engine damage. 102mm.  Turret cheeks from 139 to 152mm may not seem like an improvement at all. But lets average the cheek curvature to 46 degrees. That turns from 186 to 203mm effective. That basically removes alot of easy penetrations like Mutant 6   Panther 8.8   Skoda 27   Suka pershing, to 50/50 instead.  T103 is the closest example that compares to Prototype. And with its 1250 HP, I would say that is a good number to start with.
