I think we can safely blame the requirements for a multi fuel engine for the ruinously slow speed of the chieftain. Its kind off the only time we wish we didnt stick to specs as we were stuck with leyland trying to make a multi fule engine which ended up increasing the size and weight of the chieftain along side reducing the hp we wanted. Imagine a chieftain that was 40 tons like it was meant to with a similar or more hp engine. Would have been a pretty sexy thing to see.
I just want gaijin to give us the gas turbine prototype but i know thatll never happen as it was never given a turret i dont think.
Although, i do admit. A two stoke super charged engine does sound pretty cool untill you slap on the leyland badge and see the 75% fail statistics.
Might be. It was something that surprised me when I watched it but it is cool to watch

I also love watching it puff up when it has been hit, like plastic and it is very satisfying
Always been the problem with us. We sign up, agree to the requirements only to find that no one else has followed it and they’ve gone off and done something else.

I wonder if they will be fixing the mantlet position anytime soon?
Whats it been 1.5 years almost?
It wouldn’t have taken much effort to look at a couple of photos of CH2 to make sure it’s correct before pushing the rework to live.
Aye was a bit of a shambles, and from that point we then went more against the nato stuff, Only now with CR3 are we actively changing the barrel to be more in line with sharing ammunation with NATO allies

Only because all the places where you produced your own stuff have all been closed due to bankruptcy or never having enough money from a useless government

Germany is going to be properly switching in the 2030s and I believe the US will also be upgunning soon as well
