According to the in-game armor viewer there does not appear to be any armor underneath the lateral turret overhangs.  The armor for the turret side is present and the armor for the sloped upper side hull is there, but there is a gap where the turret sticks out beyond the flat top of the hull where no armor appears.  I don't know if it's just a display issue or an oversight in the armor model.

 

Also, this tank really sucks.  The gun is absolutely horrid.

The tank is awful, but the spreadsheet data says it's doing just fine.

Hello, could you grab a picture. I'm not sure what exactly it is that you are looking at.

In this image you will see I have circled the lateral (side) turret overhangs.  I used this particular armor thickness because the slope of the upper side hull helps you to see how much the turret hangs over the side of the hull.  You can scroll through every armor thickness and will see that there is none which colors in the underside of the turret that hangs out over the upper side hull.

The complete underside of the turret is armorless. The armor you see, that looks like it would be parts of the turret's underside, is actually the top of the hull. On the tank the turret is from it doesn't matter, because you can't hit the underside there. On this hull it seems very possible to do that. Never tried, but looks possible

Thanks, will make a ticket to have it looked at.
