I haven’t seen the stats yet, where are you getting this from?

Because its the same round and gun you get on the Chiefain mk3 at 8.7? only at 9.7.

The stats are indentical to the L15A3 from the Cheiftain Mk.10

Its not, the Cheiftain has the L15A3 round, L15A5 is exclusive to the Shir 2 ingame

2.09

Oh interesting with a little bit more looking into it there is a thread here that goes into some detail on the differences between the A3 and A5 rounds. the A5 is supposed to have a DU sheath and core.

I had incorrectly assumed it was just a normal British MoD moment of renaming things for no reason.

Nope, people have been asking for the l15a5 round for years for the chieftains due it being kinda needed but hey, only a 9.7 tank can have it according to gaijin. What makes it even more ironic is that it now has imaginary stats making it the second imaginary round the shir 2 has along side the l23 because a5 is du as you say and so should have more pen than the a3.


7 tanks build in total

I would scratch out the non Hydrogas suspension ones

I went ahead and converted the manual PDF to be searchable for words for everyone. I believe you have to open in adobe acrobat though. Doesn’t work in browser.
