Maybe we should try to give on of the challenger (maybe the TES) a 40 mm grenade launcher.
It could make up for the poor mobility not to mention that if the commander is killed (unlike on the A
BMT 60) the loader can still fire the weapon.
This is taken form the Challenger 2 images of war series of books page 260.
This could be a modifcation called streetfighter in the TES modification.
This is page 145 in the same book mentioned in the above comment.
Edit: Could fix the stale nature of every challenger (except for the OES 50 cal) being fitted with a a gun that cant even scratch tracks.
I’d be happy with a .50 so I could shoot walls down.

I would personally want a grenade launcher but I see where you are coming from. The main thing is that it was equipped, how much is uncertain.
Also this could be a new camo for the challenger 2.
I am more interested to increase the soft factors on this tank then the hard factors (I am not going to do the armor research cause that’s a dead end).
Can you seggest the camo pattern to the developers :)
I think Il need to research the RWS more.

I think the 40mm was rejected as it was never mounted on the RCWS on CR2, I think I suggested adding the .50 to the TES ages ago but ofc they slapped it on the OES instead

I think there are quite a few commander sights that are bugged atm

Can someone more educated in the process of submitting suggestions run me through the official rules and the unofficial rules of how the whole process works.
Damm that’s rough. isn’t it rather “never officially mounted”. The wording above states that the ladder (7.62 mm) was mounted rather the former 50 cal and 40 mm. In this statement it never specifies that the grenade launcher was mounted nor wasn’t mounted.
(I understand that the 7.62 was the main one to be used)
Then it follows up with the RWS was being one of the main features of the street fighter upgrade.
Its also weird to mention the grenade launcher twice and saying that it can be mounted and hinting at that it was mounted, then turn around and say it wasn’t mounted.
(I am not trying to argue rather learn and understand)
The short version is that you need photos, there’s images of a CR2 on exercises with a .50 mounted to the RCWS so that can be used as a basis/reference for it being added

But there is a photo of the Royal Dragoons which is infact a tank core (I think)
looks to be mounted on a viechl.
It was mounted on a apc these are soldiers of the British army teaching the polish military’s how to operate it.
Playing the CR2s in WT is the gateway drug to getting into BDSM.

Ok after extensive research I come up blank, it could be that they installed the protector weapon system but I don’t know. Its sad that I couldn’t find any pictures with the launcher and tank in the same frame but I digress.
It is my pleasure to announce- Challenger 2 just got a survivability buff!
The back charge ammo storage bin was corrected.
Before, many of the charges at the back were vertically split in 2, and each half was stored separately; which led them to fill the entire back rack even when only carrying 14 shells as I do, which, in turn, led to ammo detonation whenever the hull was penetrated, since the entirety of the back was coated in charges.
However, now, the charges are correctly modelled and stored; so, now, carrying 14 shells as I do, there’s only charges on the left side of the rack, right behind the loader, and not in the center of the hull any longer!
Basically, the ammorack surface area was reduced by 50%.
Now Challenger 2s are officially better than Challenger 3 (TD) lmao. At least until (if) 3 (TD) gets the same 5 second reload as them (and its missing 17hp).
