Yeah, I am excited to see what differences it will have personally, despite overall not liking the idea of the vehicle being in the British tree

Who is shooting t tanks in the turret, you just center mass them as they have god aweful gun depression so cant go hull down
Well more is always better and especially when we start getting better rounds which can penetrate 600mm of armour and more.

Yeah it’s a let down for many people and I can see where they’re coming from…
IMO, Vickers Mk7 being 10.3 is more of a formality.
It’s proven itself a better 2A4 in almost every way for me, namely due to its DM33-like ammunition.
Armour in places your not getting shot at is not really worth anything, its why something like the excelsior trips people up, as they are trained to center mass cromwells, and well its got tiger armour there
I want to see it’s round performance, if it spalls as much as the other 125s it might be worth to consider, imo L27 spall is a little lackluster.
I can literally fit a family of four into the Turret of the Vickers Mk.7.

It has its advantages but the Challenger-sized ready rack with the Leopard 2 reload is not a very fun combo. The turret’s armor protection is also pretty weak compared to even the 2A4. Now if it had its Gen 2 thermals, I would tolerate those flaws a little more.

I’ve not got it unlcoked yet, so can’t comment, but my experience of fighting 10.3s-11.3s in the chally mk3, sucked but now potentially and probably also seeing 11.7s sounds like a rough time for the chally mk3 and Vickers Mk7.
Hopefully we also get the Challenger with Rheinmetall’s 130mm gun, that would shred everything
I don’t even have the MK.3 in my lineup, I just love the MK.7’s mobility, and when I go back to the Chally is such a turn off for me
Yeah, they all feel so… heavy. But im more of an air main, just would be nice to take them out once in a blue moon
The weight issue gets worse, as you end up slapping like 10 tons of blocks on it by the end of hte line XD
Hehe, yeah… though at least hte black night t and 2E go on a wieghtwatchers program though after the TES But its one of the main areas i want to research and try and tackle, but all accounts the chally 2 is comparible in mobility to any leopard or abrams
Yeah, I really like the MK.2, but the MK.3 is just… Meh
It just lacks the top speed, but if you have ever seem one scoot around its far from immobile
Yeah, i know, there was a clip on YT of one drag racing a leclerc I think and leaving it in its dust. Poor quality, so not good enough for even a tenative bug report, but the chally 2 needs some major love in the engine department
true speed
