where is muh Scorpion where I can bonk people with 76mm HESH and my Scimitar with LRF and RARDEN

Nah, cameras, IR iirc, might have a thermal one too

Perhaps we should write an appeal to the British Ministry of Defense so that they install the Ajax tower on the challenger. Challenger hulls are introduced more often than Ajax hulls

76mm hesh would cause me to have a new favourite vehicle. I don’t know why but I cannot use good vehicles as I always do shit in them. But if you give me something that is barely usable I will spend every waking moment perfecting my strategy to ensure I win every game in said vehicle.

oh so stuff like the Centurion Mk.3 and the warrior?

Sounds like the Scimitar jet. most people agree its a bit of a dumpster fire, yet i loved that thing to bits.

Chieftains are my god damn jam. I just love the feel of it, plus I have spent a bit too much on market skins to not play them. I am a heavy tank man, the Churchill mk 7 is my beloved.

No not that thing, that’s too much of a dumpster fire of a jet for me to even play. I’ll play the shit out of the tornado gr 1 just to bring no bombs and dog fight in it. Or use the mig 21 lazur and go ham against all the gem 4s.

gooooooood lad
Chieftains are the solid stuff, L15A3 APDS, Stillbrew and Barr and Stroud sights is the stuff Dreams are made of

the poor thing is overtiered though, I love it, but you can end up fighting 2S38s and turms in it

Looks like a driver’s front-facing camera, seen on many vehicles these days. Probably there is also a reversing camera at least, maybe more.

cameras for the hybrid periscope system I think, one regular camera, one two-tone thermal, another colour scale thermal to be overlaid onto the regular camera image: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yrh7cUm9UOc

Yeah UFP is considerably thicker

How long before we get another Gaijin Dev Article on CR3 - with the pearls of wisdom we have come to expect.

‘Well it’s green. The previous CR2 was green. So using our logic they are IdEnTIcAl! See here this Soviet report on green paint - if something looks similarly green to a Russian thingy we ASSUME and BELIEVE they must be SiMIlaR! Also the mantlet is getting nerfed to 20mm because we measured the thumbnail image on a mobile phone screen.’

legit, why is this actually valid though
