Challenger 3 MBT - Technical Data and Discussion

This ^, honestly its weight isnt a problem aslong as it keeps the 1500hp engine. like ive said before only real issue i have is that it lacks the turret spall liner “because its a Tech Demonstrator”

Need all of the turret ring internal shots of challenger 3 TD footage we can find, please and thank you.

The weight wouldn’t be an issue in any of the challengers if they made the steering system work properly.

The lack of spall liner in the turret argument is stupid tbh, the coax gun isn’t even installed

I think it had coax, just for the sake of this presentation it was removed

Maybe for the sake of presentation the spall liner was removed from the turret

Maybe :)

It’s a German made turret right on the CR3?

I vote, just blame the Germans :P

Oh no, you are going to summon them

Just noticed top speed of the CR3 is the same 59KM/H as all CR2 with the 1250HP engine
But the CR2E has a top speed of 72KM/H due to its 1500hp engine
Surely the CR3 should have the same top speed as the CR2E?
