Beautiful work!, Maybe we can sometime see this on the game? I've wondered though, does the rear doors open for firing or was it possible to fire with them closed?

alcalc2 24 Report post Posted September 21, 2021 Quote Beautiful work!, Maybe we can sometime see this on the game ? Thank you, much appreciated. I hope to bring this to the game through the revenue share program. Quote I've wondered though, does the rear doors open for firing or was it possible to fire with them closed? Yes, according to my sources, the Bishop can fire with the rear doors closed. The rear doors were kept open because of the tight fighting compartment. When the Bishop entered service, higher command had skepticism on its performance so they decided to test it in El Alamein. Since it is a hot environment and the tank remained stationary, the crews could open the rear doors for ventilation and move ammunition about easier. That is also why there is a ventilator cowling on the top of the superstructure, although it is hard to see in most photos. The purpose of the superstructure was to keep the crew safe from shrapnel when put on the battlefield due to its limited range so it was usually closer to the front lines. For example, when the Bishop fought at Grenadier Hill, videos and photos show it shooting with the doors closed.

It is 30mm all around (the gun plate that moves with the gun is also 30mm so it is 60mm for that area in total), 10mm on the roof and 7mm underneath.

NJtanker 27 Report post Posted March 3, 2022 This being an Artillery Unit I wonder if they would add it. It would be interesting to see in game player fired Artillery but the mechanics would be interesting to work out. But all in all to me would be fun to play ..
