On the boats of course :) probably HMS Sutherland like the 40mm + LMM was

We will make a suggestion for Sutherland with both of them on :D

Im interested in the gunner auxiliary sight. It is bigger and looks simmilary to the driver camera.
it might get the same thermal overlay as the driver

When Challenger 3 (P) was unveiled a couple of months ago, I was worried about its looks because it looked kinda awkward xD

But it was just because it was still missing lots of things. Because this… this is the hottest tank I’ve seen in a while. Jesus… LOOK AT THAT!

I am somewhat convinced, that there is a design criteria for British vehicles just to look… good.
