Challenger 2 needs to be brought to developers attention

unnamed (2)

L29A1 APFSDS, L26A1 APFSDS, propellant bag for APFSDS, cutaway, propellant bag for HESH, L31A7 HESH


comparison of L31A7 HESH and L27A1 APFSDS

L26A1 and L27A1 has quite difference in size. Funny that Gaijin weight same for both round

well as I uploaded right above, their size difference is not small

Besides that, L29 is a training round, it isn’t indicative of how long the actual APFSDS is, at all;

I want to see it


But it wont let me


I would love to see the sources he provided, but they are not loading, so i cant lay my judgement yet

He’s quoting the British Army training manual for the RARDEN:


Thx, well, i guess it is going nowhere then. 3 sources with 90 vs one with 80.

I know, the picture above is just to compare L26A1 vs L31A7, because on the lower picture we can compare L27A1 vs L31A7. Still we can see L27A1 is much longer while having similar penetrator diameter to L26A1

Not really a bug though, it seems to be intentional.
The Leopard 1 chassis has three “steps” of manouverability/inertia:
Gepard:
best
1A5, C2, L44, A1A1:
mid
Leo 1:
worst

Notice how the heaviest one has the best manouverability.
Now we got the Leopard 40/70 and it has the same inertia as the Gepard, notice how both are SPAA.

For the Leo 1 it probably was a balance measure because it was one of the fastest tanks back in 2015 but I can’t explain the others.

Manufactures spec’s vs training manual… I wonder what’s more likely to have a typo

I guess it is more of a Max fire rate vs optimal fire rate ( or something like that). So what it can do vs what we expect it to do

I’d expect a challenger 2 gun mask to survive a ww2 tiger 2 level of attack… But here we are lmao

Two different figures, the 90 RPM is based on a 6 round burst. Where as the training manual is sustained fire (including reload).

So 90 rpm for the first 6 rounds then it drops to 80rpm after the first stage is empty?? Sounds reasonable. Can we have that?

No, 90 is the fire rate of the gun without loading, so if the load after 6 shots did not exist

I’m confused, so the fire rate of the gun is actually 90 rpm? But when you factor in reloading over the course of a minute you’ll only get 80 rounds off… But the first 6 rounds would be 90rpm no?

Surely it’s just a cv9040 with a smaller magazine.

Ok. The gun has a fire rate of the 90 rpm, but reload of clips slows this to 80 rpm. I will have to check data what the reload is, but if it is wrong we might be able to reduce inside clip reload time.se
