British Weapon Systems - Technical data and discussion

Yeah… Unfortunately will be the case

so AJAX is gonna be 37 or 42 tonnes with 800bhp so thats like 18/21ish hp/t comparing that a clean CR2 is 18hp/t and a leopard 2 is 25/27 hp/t i dont expect it to be fast

100% DOA

Which shouldnt be too bad.

The CV9040C at 10.3 in the Swedish tree has a hp/t of 19.3

If its in the slightly lighter config it will actually be faster than the 9040C, if its in the heavier config then it will be slightly slower.

But that weight should hopefully come at being more survivable.

Compared to the Desert Warrior which is mostly only good as a TOW slinger, im looking forward to the Ajax. Especially as I usually only play 10.3 or 10.7 anyway and so an Ajax IFV or Blackjax with Javelin wouldnt get touched much, I was always hoping for both, not just the later option.

Couple with the really modern equipment and hopefully a solid selection of shell types. It could be a really really fun option in our actually quite decent 10.3/10.7 lineups

we are also getting the one with no side armor, just storage bins

So wouldnt htat be the lower wieght model then?

Though I wouldnt take the teaser as gospel of what is to come, might be a case where the addon armour is a mod like we have on the Warriors

I hope so but even so its 37 for the clean one and 42 for the addon

Yeah i was thinking that too.

On a related note, do we have any idea what the gunner sights for CR3/Ajax look like? I know there was a demonstration of the CR3’s hybrid periscope/camera system for the driver so I’m hoping there’s something out there that shows the GPS reticle

I have no idea. Im guessing Gen 3 with aircraft target tracking.

god AJAX is huge as well


Ah I was meaning the reticle specifically, I’ll probably fiddle around with a custom sight for it and was hoping for something to base it on

Not all that surprising to be honest, theyve crammed it full of kit.

But CV90 is a similar size and thats the main thing we are basically matching in performance

CV90 vs Ajax

Width: 3.2m vs 3.35m
Length: 6.8m vs 7.62m
height: 2.8m vs 3m

So Ajax is only a little bigger

Oh right, no idea at all im afraid

Shame no PSO kit as that means its not immune to 30mm apfsds from the front

Might not have been seen on the Teaser but there is a semi good chance that the addon armour might be a mod.

If its not, we can report it and fight for it like hell

Ah well time to expect the ajax to be completely broken on arival with 0 air tracking and terroble traction

We can dream… ita atleast better then that dog ass badger

Yeah, there is hope, and being so modern and hopefully at 10.3. Will be quite an interesting vehicle to augment our 10.3/10.7 lineups and be quite fun for dealing with drones and helis in

It should have an even larger ready rack compared to thw jaguar right?

Uh… I have no idea, but given it’s larger probably.

They will just port accross the Jaguars systems.
Which are nice
