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

Nah, tell them what bits are wrong so they know what to fix.

Now it’s more like a nerf. There was only one more 30mm plate at 0°. And there are holes in the 200mm part now

its still not finished.

ITS ALREADY RUINED CHELI 2.

i don’t sure that final result will be better.

Can somebody’s check for the plate behind the mantlet.

I don’t see that there is any

Mantlet seems to vary from 250 mm, to well…

Theres hope then…

It’s all over the place. I’d say the average is around 300 mm, but there are a lot of places where your shell will just vanish into the void.

Perhaps you hit some bumps and were able to get 90°.

Just watching JeanClaud looking at the mantlet it seems like a buff, its armour is inconsisent but it can actually stop shells in the mantlet now in places

Do penetrating shells spall less?

X-ray is definitely WIP

nah looks normal to me.

Is the breach a bit bigger now?
