but there are some settings in blender fbx export ( outerra can import only fbx) that I don't know which to use
default is smoothing only normals



Also in blender if I remove extra parts there remains a hole in the hull

yes I see your max model has these armour belts more clearcut than seen in blender. But it seems this is just a visual artifact of how blender renders.
Once imported into outerra it seems fine, same as your picture. So it looks not correct in blender but actually it will be correct in outerra....well allmost..some parts seem not smooth enough (those triangulations in the hull)
here are a few pictures of how the case looks with different smooth groups in 3d max, I think this should matter when importing into the game engine.

directly imported fbx into outerra but no improvement. Still those triangulation shadows. (with cloudy sky you can see them less)   maybe we need to ask help from somebody else here who did 3D modelling for outerra and knows this stuff better than me. I only know the very basics of blender and have no understanding of how 3D modelling works.
Also in blender 2.79 which I use I couldn't import your fbx as it says something like 7100 not supported only 6100 or viceversa

I think I remembered that I was advised about these shadows on this forum in the Russian topic of the forum, now I will do the same thing that then I will throw you a new file

Perhaps, since that time something has changed, I was guided by the advice given here on the forum, then a similar problem was solved. We have to wait for the weekend, so that I would clear the disk space and reinstall the outerra, this will save you from empty experiments. Just in case, here is this topic, I do not know how to do it described there in a blender: https://forum.outerra.com/index.php?topic=1588.msg41395#msg41395
