Challenger 3 MBT - Technical Data and Discussion

i mean theoretically speaking it could get an APFSDS to tumble. I mean the Leos turret wedges are also just hollow

yes but dont forget this is war thunder, the apfsds would just spall and penetrate the armour like it wasnt there

True and it would create an overpressure point for HE

Is this at DSEI 2021? Because this Challenger 3 Tech Demonstrator has a significant amount of upgrades not seen on the 2019 Challenger 2 Demonstrator.

Well, the main differences are plate on the UFP and APS mockup…

And that UFP add on is available on CR2 as is and has been for years but gaijin say no

It is Gen 2 plate and it is on the 2F late, TES and OES, but is underpreforming. 2 with 2e upgrade has Gen 1, that BN also should have, that is also underpreforming.

good news? @Fireball_2020 @DevilO6

yes

In some parts yes, in some no

“in some cases they may even decrease” lol

20+8 shells is a good things

I hope mantlet could have 400+

That is the number of shell we have in the turret rn…

But who am i to know?

I think the most important part is mantlet, I hope gaijin could buff it

Ignoring the fact they kind of threw Fireball report to the bin and went with WE WILL FIGURE SOMETING OUT i wonder

" the protective size of the mantlet may increase." emmmmmmm…

a key word
