Challenger 2 size

According to official data the challenger 1 is 2.95m tall while challenger 2 is 2.49m tall. I took these screenshot and it clearly shows in the game they are more or less the same. Am I missing something?

The 2.95m figure given on wikipedia for CR1 is including the commander’s sight. The 2.49m figure given for CR2 is only to the turret roof and does not include the commander’s sight.
