Also, though irrelevant to the Challenger 2 - is still relevant to the British tree:

I only know this thread and the Stormer HVM one really, I imagine here it would get greater recognition regardless.

That still gets a chuckle from me, just imagining Russian tankers sat in waist high water in the tank while the driver has to wear a snorkel to drive the tank.

British Weapon Systems - Technical data and discussion

This is a thread for discussing and collecting information on British Weapon Systems, and other weapons used by Britain. It’s primarily focussed on the post-war to present day period, but discussion of earlier weapons is also welcome. Below you will find a summary of the information collected on different British weapons so far. If you see anything incorrect or out of date then let me know. I’ll try to keep this main post up to date as more information is found. Guns 20 mm Hispano To do 20 mm…

Is a good place for General British stuff

Answering your concerns regarding spall liners, MBTs and Aircraft

Re the impending Challenger article. I’ll have a crack at it - I’m brushing up on Gaijineese - that arcane and dead language known only to the Snail. Dear players. We noticed that lots of you were concerned about the Challenger 2 in our game. Namely, that it is missing large chunks of armour, the armour it does have doesn’t appear to work and the mobility profile appears to match that of a knackered-old T-34 driven by an inebriated muppet.

Brimstone go flying into the ground

[John_Sneeeeeeeew]

Well it fires upwards so it has to correct its path, it will just do it to much and straight into the ground

[John_Sneeeeeeeew]

We must wait for them to add all the random variants of the Cr2 as event vehicles

[Fireball_2020]

Chally 2’s turret is overperforming, the hull also probably is and will probably come out to be around 420 ±20.

[oppsijustkilledu]

I said that SRL document will be a curse

[Firestarter]

what, 4026?

Aren’t those the initial requirements, not actually representative of capability irl?

[oppsijustkilledu]

Yes try getting gaijin to understand that

[DevilO6]

Oh no, SRL again…

[Fireball_2020]

There is more data suggesting a 600/1000 arc capability was demonstrated as an option.

[Fireball_2020]

Only a curse if used poorly.

[Firestarter]

shudder shudder

@Fireball_2020 kind of like British vehicles anyway.
