Yea, they shared some technology.

A prototype was actually produced btw, so perfectly reasonable to be added
(in fact it was passed to devs already - Olifant MK1B "Optimum" suggestion)
Basically a Mk.2 with blow out panels and better armour a nice 9.7 IMO

Don’t know anything about the Greek trials besides that they weren’t successful
Yeah, after the Logim project (which the TTD came out of) and the Olifant 2 project (later renamed to Olifant Mk.1b Optimum) were cancelled but before the Olifant Mk.2 was pursued
Sort of
The TTD was also going to fit a 140mm if the 120mm cannon and tank were accepted into service
I’ll post a link to the Olifant 2 suggestion and a TTD forum for more info

Neat, was wondering if they did anything like that.
Would be fun to see imo
I mean like the TTD the budget sort of buggered it up.
Would pair up well with the recently added Shir 2
Yeah I read into a bit ages ago so could be wrong.
I see, well there you go bit of extra informations to start the evening.
TTD seemed quite ideal on paper TBH seems a not too bad MBT.
There is something strangely off putting about that CR2, reminds me of the prototype models. for somereason
It was the late 90s so it could have been an early production CR2 taken from the factory, spruced up a bit then shipped off
If it had been completed then the production tank would have been on of the best MBTs ever produced, and it wasn’t that far from full completion; only 5ish years to being done
Substantially is an overstatement. Have you spaded it? I find myself outpacing T-80BVM and Abrams quite regularly during the early game cap rush. Also you’ve got the spall liner and better armor than the Abrams, as well as no turret basket module. Like I said the only thing that holds it back is the vertical targeting speed.
You can check my K:D, I perform pretty good in it, I’ve played it enough to unlock the Late Bicolor Camo. I quite like playing it, it’s a good looking tank and is pretty meta if you know what you’re doing. Then again the Leclerc is my favorite and most played tank in the game and I always speak highly of its capabilities, IMO one of the best top tiers… Maybe it’s a problem with me lol.

And the round, L27A1 is not the equal of DM-53, 3BM60 or M829
All of the CR2s have that problem (besides the CR3 but we don’t speak about that one)
And to be honest I don’t really notice the lack of spall. It performs pretty closely to 3BM60.
I feel some times with the super heavies the T-90M and the 2A7 (STRV-122B+) I have to shoot them multiple times and if you only have small areas of the tank exposed the spalling gets eaten by the liners and ERA
As I understand it the M829A2 (maybe even A3) is equal to L27A1 IRL in pen, if not worse than

the penetrator of the L27A1 its around 615 mm for what i remember somoene managed to find in the part 1 of the thread so it cant really pen more than 615 mm its physically impossible

If there’s an accurate source then bug report it, I’m not keen on taking someone I don’t know at their word for something they said half a year ago on Discord lol
You don’t know Flame. He knows.
