I never got to test it but did the bins cause the chally 3 to get ammo racked?

The turret one i havent been ammoracked as a result of but the Hull ones yes.

But as seen here


the hull ones have a 5mm box around them and then a 25mm plate at the front and back

I was talking about the one on the turret floor that’s been removed :)

Weird this is saying the turret has improved protection.

The turret and modular armour on RBSL’s Challenger tank are said to provide high levels of protection to the tank’s crew. An Active Protection System is not part of the Challenger 2 LEP, but it is believed that RBSL has been asked to look into both hard and soft kill systems (jamming and obscuration) by the MoD.

Ahh ok, at least it wasn’t too detrimental

You are misreading it. HIGH. it is a Cr2 protection. LET ME GRAB A STATEMENT TO PROVE IT

I mean Trophy was selected for Challenger 3

I just realised XD my dyslexic brain read it as higher

This is from 2019, not 2021

ok, then im not going to the deep web again
