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

Checking it out

its underperforming so take it with a pinch of salt, i have reported it… but the better mantlet is really nice.

umm

I DO NOT LIKE WHERE THIS IS GOING

like i said…

If I had to take an educated guess I’d say Series 5/6 could possibly protect the vehicle against 40mm apdsfs rounds and more powerful Atgms, and we know for a fact that the Dorchester level 2H kit can protect the vehicle against Tandam warheads !!


that was around 500 IIRC

2H is very very different, and yeah no, its not stopping 40mm apfsds with a 200mm block…

peep the mantlet tho

turret front should be 480mm head on so its underperforming but yeah

Between 280 and 560 on the guner side

loader 250-460

the area with composite in front is the important part, and its significantly better yeah

That is more than Chally 2 90-250

yeah, Cr2 is way off

You know how it is. It is forwarded, but when devs decide to do is is a different case…

Also i cant wait for the 2 stage amo rework as chally 2 have 28 projectile ready rack, 4 propelant all the time, and when facing forward giant bit at the back of the hull is also a first stage

just so you know, these 24 at the back of the turret are closer than ingame, making them within hand reach.

Also why does 1st stage replenish takes double the normal time, loader insted of taking 1 whole heavy rounds takes 2 lighter parts, allowing for simmilar speed of moving ( if we consider the whole 28 rounds are fiered)

If you had the hulls armour to it then yes it would !!
