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

They didnt give the reload buff despite using the exact same gun, ammo and load procedures of its contemporaries

Thats true, but as a end of line vehicle and you are 0.3 br lower is just amusing

The fact they felt the need to move the TES up to 11.7 is actually crazy

The CR2/F/TES would all be fine at 11.3, they are already not that good at 11.3

Now I have to consider my future investments ;)

T55-am-1 with better mobility, better roof MG and atgm for helicopters staying at 8.7 lmao

The mig 23s being moved down along with the su 27 so now i can see it in my tornado… lets all celebrate that they didnt instantly move the tornado up to 12.3 at least i guess…

they practically moved everything up

The chieftain mk5 is at the same BR as the t55-am-1… Without a LRF, no composite armour, worse mobility, worse roof gun and no atgm for hovering heli’s lol

These BR changes would be a whole lot better if:

Cheiftain MK10 - Got Mk.11 thermals and L23A1 (L23 never existed irl)

Cheiftain Mk5 - Got LRF at least, maybe L23A1 too

many things got moved up with nothing to show for it

Its pretty depressing comparing them to high-end pattons even lol, look at the magach hydra.

which is bonkers all things considered. that thing and the AMD shouldn’t face 7.7. So… not Cent Mk3

or even l15A5 would make it more viable

so what is happening with the challanger 2s then? are they just leaving htem half done and calling it a day? they used to have the advantage of the faster first stage reload, now the merkava and arriete have a 5 second reload well the challanger 2 is up for now the worst MBT in game IMO

im not familiar with L15A5, is that an improved APDS shell?

I’d still say the Ariete is worse, but the Chally 2’s have now lost basically their only advantage over most tanks

It could be quite easily fixed by either expanding the ready rack or simply making it refill much faster, but they can’t be bothered to do that

They have been holding on for a long time, but now they are power crept into insignificance.
So far the only reason to struggle in the CR2 is…because they look cool. Every other tank they face does something better than the CR2 and the holy grail CR3 TD is also a mess.

No point grinding Britain to the top tiers
