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

shame

CR2s are murder to use right now, I’ve been at 11.7 - 12.7 for China, isreal and Italy using the arietes etc. and I went and tried out the CR2s and got absolutely dog walked.
I don’t know why either , i just suck with em too much, the chieftain and CR1s though are right up my street.

I may join in with that, my 900 isn’t spaded yet and I’ve also got the khalid which is the best 9.3 in game in my humble but bias and subjective af opinion xD

Yeah, you can also mess about with the Buc S2 at 9.3, which is rather fun.

has the weakest shell at 12.7 and is quite literally the least mobile 12.7 as well in the CR2 BN, the 2E is more mobile.

at 11.7 they don’t have the worst shell, the T84 takes that at 12.3 but they aren’t far off of it.

I’ve got it in there after your recommendation from a while ago man, it’s been decent fun, but 8.7 for me with the swift F1 is just the best xD

also let’s not ignore the random ass change to the swift F7 missiles like 2 years ago that were not backed by any sources

Yeah, exactly what I meant

Yeah, for the 8.7s though nothing beats out a pair of cookies form the Canberra

the Shir 2 and TTD duo are britains strongest duo right now imo

12.7 though it is by far the worst mate, so you’re correct at top tier it’s the worst shell.
Considering the Merkava mk3 gets the M332 or whatever it is which is 588 flat pen at 11.3 xD

I need to crew the canberra man, I just keep using the 2 chieftains back to back xD

The FV4030/3 is pretty good, but I just use it alongside the Mk2 at 10.3

9.0 downtiers with the TTD and shir 2 are nuke simulator

the Shir 2s solid but There always feels like something is missing for me, I dunno what it is, I rekcon it’s the round.
L23 at 10.0 isn’t great.

Isn’t the TTD 10.3?, oof in RB it’s 10.0 lol I’ve always just took it up in the 3 games I used it.

Yeah, L23 in any uptier sucks and the lack of TVD can be felt in something that likes sniping.

But 10.3 is a lot more fun than 10,7 at the moment, so a seocnd MBT is welcome.

CHieftain mk900 the better 900 with composites and L23A1 on it’s way man , i hope.

We need to get the L23 taken out the game by this point as it’s completely fabricated.

So this just happened

95% of my games using the Challenger 2 end in frustration - but sometimes they slap

you always remember your first ey

(this genuinly might of been the most smooth brained RU team i’ve ever faced)

If they end up implimenting that turret armour fix/change along with a ready rack increase, they’ll pretty fun to play, thats where the vast majority of my trouble comes from with them, but if the enemy is too damn stupid to aim - the gun handling, optics and fairly quick reload can work wonders

Edit - The CR3 is still complete doo doo but the CR3 thread knows my thoughts on that already

Yeah, we do

i think people give it to hard of a time, the lfp weakspot is a lot better because no hull ammo and DM53 is always nice but yeah its not great

also people give the challys to hard of a time in general

If and only if you don’t want more than 16 rounds.

yeah so same thing with the leopards? and you mostly dont need it with DM53

Leopard (2a7) at least has some hull armour to account for it, and i’ve found dm53 spalling to be abysmal personally
