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

Given the mistakes I’ve found in actual vehicle TMs while working on them, that might be a little too stringent.

Then go tell that to snail :)

I’d love to, but NDA :P

I know nothing anyway, and these days I only touch wheeled vehicles. Even as crew or mechanic you wouldn’t need to have access to anything interesting (you don’t need to know about armour composition to change a roadwheel).

Suffice to say that US Technical Manuals are written simply, but at times with errors (as anything), whereas UK AESPs are information-dense and hurt my brain, but are usually more useful.

Yippee, an engine sound change, the challengers are fixed!!!

Completely 100% fixed. No need to do anything else to it.

The current blocks on Megatron are just weight simulation for either type of OES side protection, rather than being either 2G or 2H in nature - they have “TRG” (Training) embossed on them.

ok i will check that first
Edit:
Cr1, Cr2 and Cr3 have the same engine sound, it sound better but it is still a Chieftain sound
Edit 2: They sound like a mix of Cr and Chieftain engine
Edit 3: Now that i heard it for a longer time, i think it is fine.
Yea, i will say they are fine. They give the Chieftain vibe but i will say they are fine.
Edit 4: I just heard it. The Leyland whine is there. BAD
