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

Also Challenger 1s, Khalid (Chieftain), and the Shir 2

and The Challenger 3TD (as in reality its just a Challenger 2, not a Challenger 3 :) )

But the actual Challenger 3 should also get at least 1314hp as per this report

I think it will get more as the engine is the same but has been improved. Improved cooling, fuel injection, idk specifically but someone posted in here a while ago.

the problem is that we’d need like solid evidence for the new hp, speculation and word of mouth won’t do

The critical design review states the mobility is “significantly improved” but says nothing about what specific engine upgrades it gets

Bweh, Vickers Mk7 with double the composite volume of the CR1 turret, using the exact same tech (chobham) but somehow less than 2/3 the effectiveness. Vickers armor magic. Must’ve replaced all the steel with tea leaves or something.

This issue has been reported and “passed as suggestion” more than a year ago. Gaijin always picks and chooses when it comes to fixing historical errors, they only push for changes if they think it’s needed for gameplay, they dont actually care about the game being accurate to real life, realism is just an aesthetic to them.
