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

Nah bro lets be real, the netting has been like that since both the type 90 and leopard got 3d netting it ain’t happening

Im not disagreeing. But I’d rather wait till the update to start complaining about the camo nets

I Decided to log back into this account, are we still stuck at the talking to a brick wall phase of trying to get fixes?

same lol, been a month or so and still no where. only difference ive seen is a German main came and tried to argue for a challenger in the German tech tree? i knew they were delusional but for one to even want to touch this poor thing is something else… especially considering they already have some of the best tanks in the game now.

although saying that who knows, maybe putting a challenger in the German tech tree may do wonders for getting our bug reports implemented.

Arietes / Merkavas / Challengers / ZTZ99s / leclercs*

Fixed

You forgot Leclerc exists
and Type 10. They are still looking for cvt transmission

always nice to come back to war thunder and see they’ve odne nothing. the first thing i do is look at the side armour of the TES bellow the “ERA” panels, they’ve been shown to be a layer of composite and era but just try and tell gaijin that. it was originally a 200mm thick composite screen but gaijin in a shocking turn of events actually made a correct change and made it 2 layers of 40mm and 60mm rha with a 120mm air gap between them.

in the most recent update they reverted it back to the 200mm of composite which showed to me that the challenger model we were given was far from a finished product and was probably rushed out and forgotten about. the day they fix that i will mark it down to see how long it took them to fix a bug they created themselves…

Yeah but I feel like Type 90/10 are slept on. While their transmission isn’t correct, they are really quick already and have their 4s autoloader.

If Japan had more vehicles to fill out their TT they would be an amazing nation.

oh the arietes are already down there with a campfire and smores going, were just the next ones up to arrive. were simply too good looking for gaijin to let us get anything good.

Bet that new 2A4M has accurate working NERA blocks that stop 30mm autocannon rounds.

Hey, instead of fixing a nations native vehicle and making TT unique, lets just spam Leopards and T-80s everywhere and call it a day.

type 90 is just flat out better than the type 10 ngl, its soooo much faster at accelerating and the reload means having more pen is kinda redundant as youve already got off 3 rounds by the time theyve gotten off 1. plus its bigger with the same amount of dead space so its more survivable as i have, still to this day, not tanked a round in the type 10s composite.

I hate the Fuji spam. Not many people played Japan but now since they have a premium, people realize how amazing Type 90 is.

Which is why Italy will get the HU Leopard 2A6 eventually

This is the most painful thing for me, they actually put effort into the 2A4M nets :(

Nope, last I checked no nato ERA really works. Except for the Puma on release, buuut gaijin saw to that.

i saw the netting on it and just thought to myself… DAMN, thats one hot peice of meat. the new leo has got to be up there with the best looking tanks in game. doesnt have a stupid crows nest looking think to ruin the look and the turret doesnt seem as top heavy as the other leo 2s, reminds me of the vfm5 whenever i look at them. especially the 2a7 with its deformed looking front alongside the swedes.

The sights on the type 10 are muuuch nicer imo
