The only thing that is confirmed is fans.
and radiators
are they?
yep
good spot. Might be new then. The old fans had very pronounced mounts
:shrug: You probably have better idea about this sort of thing than I lmao
i remember seeing only fans.
perspective makes it hard to tell, but they can be the old one. You can not see the slope while looking perpendicularly from that distance
Yep, it isn’t confirmed. I just added it because it has been mentioned quite often.
Once again, this isn’t a 100% credible source, but Military Leak’s article on the Challenger 3 from Army Expo 2024 (published yesterday) states it has improved fuel injection. The rest of the article checks out pretty well, so I’m hopeful its true.
But tbh, the part that the belt is set over looks differently
Much smaller
That whole part looks differently
And here is Cr1
The new one are much smaller
Just me saying, but reduction in diameter of pulley, and bigger metal circle udner it
might suggest increase in RPM of fans
The actual intake portion looks much smaller, with a bigger axle(?) imo. but eh, my eyes can’t be trusted atm lmao. broke my glasses the other day, so I’m sat here in my (prescription) sunglasses looking like someone with more money than sense lmao.
OLD
NEW
Isn’t Common Rail Injection pretty much the main improvement in the CV12-9A?
I know not everyone is convinced, but personally i think the Challenger 3 is an amazing looking tank
thats what we wanted by in the day when it was CV12-8A etc…
something interesting…emmmm
what do you mean?
Most likely. We do not know, but they do match.
