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

Closest thing to the Falcon at that BR bracket a monster and being a US vehicle you see 4-5 on a team

I mean even in support role they are weak. It is not about the armour or the reload speed. It is more like the speed. You can’t really rotate around the map fast enough to support your teammates. Assuming they didn’t rush in and die that is

Perhaps, but i’ve found half decent success sitting as part of the rear guard. Providing sniper support and cover the widest flanks or protecting a cap point whilst the rest of my team push. Quite often results in me being one of the few left alive.

I dont really have issue with the slower pace though of the CR2, even in the fastest MBT I would likely play similarly. Im not one for FPS games and in gamemodes like ASB, I often stick with BVR combat over WVR gunfighting even in aircraft like the Typhoon.

I just wish we had a little… something extra. Its why I really want us to get Dozer Blades. They’d be a really fun addition and give us a minor buff.

How? Because in game they look like this:

They were talking of nerfs, but not sure if they ever happened or not

they were talking of applying the pen formula other rounds use, less point blank pen but also less drop off with range

pretty sure gaijin did a post about how they reduced post penetration damage of the rarden guns specifically, making them spawl less, which nerfed everything with a rarden. This happened pre scimitar iirc

I remember the post but I don’t remember if it was actually done or not, or just something they were considering

Honestly, I see no difference with the RARDEN currently, the spall is still pretty good for a 30mm

They haven’t yet nerfed the 30mm RARDEN yet, but until they announce that they will not do so it is only a matter of time until it happens.

LWS sensors appeared on the Challenger 3.

Front LWS sensors. It had the rear ones for a while.

Id pay good money to see Megatron scooting around with 2000 HP.

Just seeing a C2 run around with thst much extra HO would be a treat.

Also, random, but hasnt it basically been confirmed at this pount that the C2s have somewhat recently recieved internal composites in their LFPs?

I know i have seen a few people speak about their beeing composite in the IFP, outside of the add on package.

Where would there be room to buy that composite without cutting the drivers legs off?

With an option to have a addon armour package that would make it weight 100 tonnes and providing immunity to all damage and giving it the ability to kill anything and everything

Or an option to remove the armour packages and run it as a base CH2… 30+ hpt.

And get stuck in the mud even more lol

Depends on the clearance that was between the hull and driver as well as if they relocated the seat slightly back.
