British Weapon Systems - Technical data and discussion

Hey all,
I may be posting this in the wrong place but it seems that the Warrior’s Milan launcher is having issues. When selected, the missile that is fired tends to not respond to control inputs and pitches down into the ground ( launcher selected with alt+F by default). When on default weapon selection it works fine however.
Just me or is something wrong?

Considering that the missile pool starts in the hull as well (I.e you don’t launch the missile from the launcher and reload it, you launch a missile in the stowage and you still have ammo on the missile) I think they’ve somehow broken the Warrior since the last time it was changed.

I remember seeing a graph of autocannon APDS penetration vs range, does anyone have that handy?

And does anyone know the formula used to calculate low calibre APDS performance?

There does not seen to be any formula.

Will be for sure. Well, but i guess you also missed the part where Gaijin will nerf RARDEN APDS

Does the early scimitar have a powered turret traverse?

I saw some people saying it dosen’t and therefore its traverse is quite bad, is this true?

AFAIK it doesnt, no, so will be relatively low compared to other systems.

If thats the case hopefully it will be at a lower BR to compensate

I was also thinking, with all the rumours of SEAD systems coming in, whats the chances of badgering gaijin into giving us the Martel ARM for the Bucc and then extending/buffing the AGM version to compensate for its GRB role if it has to go up in BR?

IIRC the Martel is a relatively slow missile anyway, especially compared to other ARMs due to being a thick phat warhead, so it would give RADAR systems a chance to turn off and move out of the way, meaning it might not need to be as high a BR as say, HARM, or Standard etc.

Jaguar too. Would be good
