The game is not capable of linking the type of projectile and its visual model on the X-ray, if there is a HESH projectile in the ammunition, then for any projectile in the ammunition it will be considered that it is a HESH projectile, and therefore it will be fired and detonated when it is damaged.

Excuse me ?? half charge ??
I fail to see where is says the shoulders are spaced armour rather than composite? In fact that quote doesn’t mention the CR1 armour scheme at all, apart from the hull floor pm the CR2 being one piece instead of two bits welded together like with the CR1
It says A pack, not ONE pack, and it says “around” the drivers position, not Central portion.
We should just go to Jordan and ask them to cut one open for us lmao
Hi just found this video
Was wondering if anything of use could be taken from it to help improve the CR1 ingame @Gunjob
Namely this image
Well it defo showcases the charge bins working and stopping an ammo det when hit
Also shows the correct internals layout
Could we use the clip at 9 minutes to show that there should be a reduced ammo detonation chance? If the T72/80 gets it for “wet stowage” in a completely dry carousel then surely this would be enough?
You can try but as always its 50/50
Community Bug Reporting System Ummmm yes the game can differentiate ammo types in the fighting compartment and has been able to for quite a while. @Gunjob is this something you could overturn?
I found a document about upgrading the Challenger 1 in the National Archives. It gives some interesting protection figures, particularly for the “lower glacis”.
As far as I know it doesn’t, once you mix in any shell that is HE Smoke, HESH etc etc with a Kinetic round it will make the whole rack explosive, even if its depicted as a solid shell.
So when playing the challys it’s best to leave hesh at home, if you bring only darts your less likely to suffer an ammo rack?
Yes, I’ve ditched all other shell types.

made a report because Challenger 1 mk 3 and DS have the wrong ammounition storage bins
Community Bug Reporting System @Flame2512 Nice report, lets hope it actually gets implimented
Well it got forwarded to devs so we can only hope
Hopefully one day we actually find out the armour layout similar to the chieftain modification
@Gunjob has this photo been posted before, it’s primarily for the challenger 1 bin storage locations?
