2E is just a name, not early, just like later you have 2F 2G 2H 2I
so it is 25mm or 50mm plate?
2E got 25 2Fe got 25 2F l and up got 50
TES OES also is 50?
should be
I’ll be the continual wet blanket in saying there’s no sourcing on what the later applique is. I’m not of the opinion that its a solid 50mm plate. It looks similar to the old applique on the Shir 2 that was just a thin cover with unknown contents.
Well Fireball got something on that plate, and from what he told it is just a 50mm plate
It is meaningless to enclose the 25mmplate. Just like you wouldn’t take off your pants to fart
Thats a interesting comparasion…
I never said it was a 25mm plate, the contents could be some sort of sandwich for all I know. Regardless the old Shir 2 applique was just a similar hollow cover.
I believe fireball quoted at one point it was some sandwich of HHRA and Kevlar but I don’t believe he gave a source. Regardless it isn’t likely a solid plate.
In fact, all CR2 except 2E and BN should have this 50mm plate in WT?
Only 2F l, TES and OES. Base 2 with DL2E, 2Fe and BN have 25 and 2E has none
It was only mounted when the Romor was replaced with the Dorchester block iirc, so only the later models and the 3TD if you count the one time it had it during the show where the trophy mock-up was.
Well well well, how did i missed that?
not bad, more ke is good
Better than what we have in wt
The top edge being beveled sorta rules it out being solid, you’d never shape a solid plate to a point that way, it would have a hard edge
20mm kevlar = ?? mm
however this plate is thicker than 50mm
I will prove it later
