I see, I found a primary figure for Frs.1 with pylons and empty 190 gallon tanks. The dry un-fueled weight in this configuration was 13,850 lbs.
I don’t see the FA.2 being that much fatter.
1 x 120 gallon tank weights 105lbs empty. That’s the closest value I have.
4 wing pylons weigh 297 lbs
297+105(2)=507 lbs suspension weight (120 gallon DT)
13,343 operating weight for IRL Frs.1 (With 120 gallon tanks)
The reason I ask is the Frs.1 in game weighs 13847 with no pylons, no tanks and dry.
Chieftains just need a little TLC and then just need an IR SAM slinger at 9.0/9.3 so that you dont have to uptier to 9.7 to use the Rapier. That way you avoid the 10.7 Premium blackhole.
Something like a Scimitar Mk2 wouldnt go amiss either
what sam could got to 9.3? i really like rapier
some Land rover with the SAM Javelin, kinda like the Type 93
isnt javelin beamriding?
Javelin is yes, but might have been something with a stinger too
it would be nice if the cheiftan mk10s engine buff went through aswell
Yeah, thats one of the TLC items that I was referring too
how high would a landrover starbust go?
I have no idea
yeah but i doubt they would do it for “balancing” as the 900 “fufills that role”
Likely never will
they also wont fix its armour
shouldnt the mk5 chieftain get a lrf or something?
if they unbuggered the Mk.10 and maybe add the Mk.11, they would make easy 9.7s
yes, but gaijin decided its the earliest possible variant without it
i mean i dont see the reason other than it being a premium the khalid and the cheiftain 900 being the same br
something with a Blowpipe missile British tax. xD (and unironically would be really good cos of the niche group using it)
Gaijin:
Rover with 6x Blowpipe missile = 10.0 because reasons
