Challenger 2 MBT - Technical data and Discussion (Part 1)

I’m 90% sure it had no elevation control but I could be wrong.

uh, yes. correction on something earlier, it appears the Stage 1 still had a loader, but there was some mechanism to assist with loading.

The fixed gun would be a pain in the backside.

its missing the cope cage

A little bit of reading, you are semi right. It had no vertical control, but it could traverse horizontally. though from what i can read it was not permitted to fire to the side or rearwards, presumably so the recoil didn’t send the tank flying…

And now chellenger 2 has - 4km/h

AH, the Chobham

That also goes to show you how accurate the L11 is.

It’s as beautiful as the day I lost it.
