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

I can confirm that the apds heads do cause an ammo explosion as it has been happening to me this past week as I finally decided to spade my mk3. It’s the 3 just behind the left cheek. I have been bringing 3 hesh in my loadout so maybe it’s a coding issue where the first stage always contains a hesh round?

The green lines are not comparable, the one of the black night is going to the boxes, which in game are modelled wrong? Either way I don’t think the BN should get the plate.
Also, line tool smh, use hands

You can see that the black boxes in game are attached to the ufp, while on the photos there is a space, a plate with a screw and the cover over it

Gonna challenge that as I run exclusively Sabot, the rear of the turret has the shells (no propellant) and yet I still got an ammo cookoff from an MBT-70 main gun hit.

It’s probably just some 10mm steel mounting plate idk why y’all making such a fuss over it

First of all, im making, and second of all it seems to be the same as the one present with the era mounting, so it is 25

Are the “blocks” attached to the hull?

OIn game yes

On those photos, no

25mm of structural steel is what it will be modelled as game so not even worth it unless you can get gaijin to change there mind about it being structural steel

Im going to summarise my point, the left side to me clearly has a plate that needs to be added, the right side does not have the lower section next to the camera, and the upper section does not have a bolt, nor the same width of ‘plate’ as on the left side, i just cant see the box being on a plate, to me the left side is clearly next to the box with a clear gap between them.
I also think they need to change the boxes from 4mm in game to 25mm, alongside a rework of most of the front plates models.
Believe me i wish we could get another plate on both sides of the hull but if I cant see it, i doubt you can convince a dev to add it.

Ik janes is not the best source, but at 2:38 there is a talk about Iron Fist, and they say that it has Soft Kill

Nvm, just found the smoking gun, will report it now, good spot.

So the plate is there, right?

Yep, Atleast some of the time, sometimes it looks attached to the hull(no plate) but there is a clear photo I have
