Me dreaming they make a Canadian cbt with the Canadair CF-5 and a spitfire
“Down the fields of a ones Unified Nation, Well Protecting the Iron Curtain and leading the tip of the Spear should totally Annihilation should come to us all” its Beautiful!!
It took them long enough to finally mount atgms on the turret
Are we sure this is a Mk.3? The gun looks like an L7 to me.
your probably correct i think it might be Mk. 11, I may have accidentally put the wrong picture for the mk. 3
Eh, the L7 was drop in compatible with 20pdr mountings, but I found someone posting this image before claiming it’s a Mk.11 (Canadian Centurion tanks question - MLU FORUM, Post-#5).
I have some doubts though, it might be a 5/2 (A Cent Mark 5 with a 105 gun), but there’s not really any way of telling without a better photo, the biggest difference being the ufp getting up-armoured on the Mk.11s and maybe it’s my eyes failing me but I can’t rightly tell.
Edit - Yeah I see the cut out in the addon armour for the drive now, its deffo a Mk.11.
Ya, Canadian cents are a mess. There was a conversation here forever ago about them. But to be fair, Cents seems to be a mess.
Said mess as led this being the list of cents on the Discord server's suggestion tracker.
Most British Mark schemes from the period are terrible, Looks at chieftain
The cents are much easier to understand than the Chieftain
So the 5/1 was Australian and the 5/2 Canadian?
No.
Welcome to the hell that is British cold war designations.
A Centurion Mk.5/1 was a Centurion Mk.5 fitted with an additional armour plate to the UFP and an additional .50 calibre ranging machine gun.
A Centurion Mk.5/2 was a Centurion Mk.5 fitted with an L7 gun.
An Extra tangent:
If a Mk.5 had both the up armouring and the 105 it would become a Mk.6.
If the Mk.6 had a ranging .50 cal it would become a Mk.6/2.
If it had NVDs it would become a Mk.6/1.
If it had both it would become a Mk.11.
Ah, yeah it sounds complicated xD
Yeah. I will 100% agree I could of put information incorrect on the main post as the designation system is confusing and sometimes the same image states different designations depending on what site you look at.
Oh I just found randomly a site web that show Canadian leopard and centurion
If it helps at all, I made a flow chart, Need to go through and make a spotters guide though.
