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

Oh how nice of them >:(

Guessing no-one knows what the gunner primary sight looks like? I’d like to throw a custom sight on there asap

it is


I will drop my 2e sight here as zoom and fov as the same

Oh mb I meant IRL, I doubt the CR2 sight will be accurate to it

Oh that, then no, nothing afaik

Nice means that it can be probably crippled by a hit to the turret roof

Oh yea, and no ramor in the rack so ammo boom you crew doom

yes as usual

So it doesn’t have a blow out Panel?

i dont think it has them

Have you tested the side of the T90M? It is so incredibly trolly

@Gunjob i need your help.
The Cr3 got the weight increase to 66t, that is the estimeed weight of the prototype that is/was supposed to be made by the end of the year, due to new armor (Farnham). But as Smin said, devs saw armor increase, but they did not knew how much, so decided to ignore it. How do i convince them to either increase the armor, or deincrease the weight without providing protection values of Farnham that max 200 people on earth know?

yeah, 66 tonnes should be for the actual CR3 i’d imagine, not sure how it gets to 66 in Tech demo form given most of the components are newer and lighter.

Well, the tech demo is a Cr2. They Took Cr3 weight and Slapped it to Cr2 armor. Now how do i convince them without breaking into Rbsl and breaking multiple military laws

Devil06 - just to be clear, are you saying the “challenger 3” inherits all the same armour problems and issues of the challenger 2?

It might help, maybe not, but I read a while back that when the UK was debating the 2A4 we saw that the Germans were developing composite (D-Tech) which they thought at the time might be equivalent or better to the Dorchester or Chobham (apologies I’m not informed enough to know the differences).

Basically we know that it should have at least equal armour values to its equivalent LoS thickness in D-Technologie armour, as now RBSL is a majority German owned joint venture, there are fewer technology transfer limitations. So depending on the values for a new leo with d-tech you could try and argue it that way.

Because if Farnham was worse they would’ve just used D-tech or made it better?

Then again, its not written on paper, so its slim that it gets added.

The one in game, yes it is a c&p Cr2. Irl, no
