Challenger 2 MBT - Technical data and Discussion (Part 1)

CR2 is least favourite as it has nothing special

I just realised i was making a mistake all along. The EPSOM replaces the Chobham and Farnham replaces Dorchester. So Cr3 will have internal armor from EPSOM and external packages from Farnham. WHY NOT REPLACE CHOBHAM WITH FARNHAM, WHERE LOGIC MOD, WHERE?

Do we assume Dorchester is internal or external. I know the quote your talking about.

That i guess? That is also what i was using, as Dorchester were always the armor packages for me


Yes, Dorchester is additional armor and is more secretive then the Chobham.

We can see the above mentioned outstanding kinetic protection only in our dreams

Yea, so that is the pont, then
WHY NOT REPLACE CHOBHAM WITH FARNHAM. MoD, why cant you be consistent. Why is MoD the most illogical thing on this earth?

What is the point of replacing any of the names if we know nothing about either of those :D
It’s like slapping M badge to standard BMW

Its not about replacing in game. Im about it IRL. Im a person who, unless sick or during a train of thoughts, like to have everything logical and orderly. So things like that annoy me a great deal. Just the way i am. Dont worry, i will get used to it in like a day or two and never make that comment again

Yeah, your logic is understandable

I dont know if i should take that as a compliment or is this a sarcasm. Like genuine confused

No sarcasm, really :D I also tend to be like that sometimes

Oh just noticed that, didn’t pay attention to it

wait i thought it was better than that. so even BMP2M can kill you there

Yep

And live, the 2F has a hard coded cap on KE and CE protection while the TES doesn’t

I have a favro to ask to any of you. Could someone contact anyone who might know something if these things

Are dust covers or they are armor?
