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

that would mean admitting to all the bug reporters that they were wrong, wont ever happen

Just a random input that, I’d like to see the challenger 2 get its full length side skirts one day, so it has the short one, full length and then the composite upgrade.

currently we have this:

I want to see this:

why? Because why not. It looks cool.

Yes I know most didn’t use them
Yes I know that the pictures are of the same vehicle
No I don’t care, I want it anyway.

If Russia can have 2S38, Obj.279, Obj.292 despite their RL numbers, Britain can have challenger 2 with long side skirts.

What about this:

06SP95/V9 was used as the prototype for Oman’s Challenger 2s - hence the longer skirts and the prototype high-elevation anti-aircraft MG mount.
Apparently it’s the one that’s now on display outside a museum in Newcasle with a civil registration “MH 14 MB” and mocked up in normal British Army camo and skirts. But it’s clear it went on to have further hull modifications the same as Omani CR2s, for the air-conditioner vents on the side and enhanced engine cooling system at the rear.

So then we should get a Chally 2 prototype, could be a nice event reward

if they did a prototype Challenger 2 is absolutely has to be Streetfighter 2 or the RH 130mm one.

Is this the one with mockup brimstones?

I can’t see it being added then. Is there a Streetfighter 1?

if not that, the Rheinmetal Challenger 2 130mm gun experiment.

Yes

I wanna see my challangers buffed a little

AND GIVE MY CHIEFTAIN ITS LRF xd and L15A5 why that round isnt even on the CR1 models is frustrating

Well! they fixed the gun mantlet’s dust cover on all the challenger 2’s now. so that’s good at least! now we just need;

-The meteo sensor mast to be up
-The crusader skin to be fixed
-Correct modelling of the suspension
-Correct modelling of the braking
-Driver hatch on the destroyed model to be fixed
-Maybe the turret side armour being able to be blown off under heavy fire, like the leopard turret cheeks, as seen in fig.1?
-Long side skirts would be a nice option.
-BRING BACK THE DOZER BLADE! (fig.2 + fig.3)
-More berlin brigade camo’s? (not just for the Chally’s but for Chieftain too and some other vehicles)
+more I’m sure I haven’t thought of.

I’d love to have the dozer plade, I cannot think of why they even removed it

They just blue balled us with it when never added it

Anyone know if the TES could mount a dozer blade of sorts? I dont like them on naked tanks but big chonkas just make them fit so well.




I don’t see why it couldn’t fit it!

(yes I know these are 2f composite, not TES ERA)

The KFOR mod is a pretty good mix of useful armour and not too much weight, i’d like to see it ingame
