The 500mm req was for challenger 2 and is what should be the protection in game rn
Never seen this before defo a interesting look.
Yeah the whole turret Looks to be a complex mesh of Modern materials
The physical thickness of the new armor pack appears to be even thicker than the original armor pack + additional armor plate
any link？
Looks the same to me. Same plate just integrated into the UFP.
yea but it looks a lot thicker from the drivers hatch to the top
exactly, so its like the ufp has less slope
Maybe, Seems the photographer took the pic while kneeling since it adds a “dramatic” effect
they probably do the same thing the ones on the Abrams do, thermal pads for friend from foe detection
That’s what I thought, But never know with modern tech
I reckon they plan to add some modular armour to the turret roof since that would explain why the loaders hatch is so high and other elements
Can’t tell if the outer parts of the UFP share the up-armouring. If not then the frontal arc protection would suffer.
That?
No
