Is it possible that the CRV(T) family has fragmentation protection? In these images, it looked like a kind of layer covering the walls.

IIRC it got suggested before to gaijin, however I think they turned around and claimed it was heat/sound proofing, lol. Or “not enough info”.
Huh nvm, at least 2 reports got accepted in the end

Of course, gaijin never actually implemented them.
I would argue that your pictures showing similar/the same spalling and those reports should be proof, but knowing the snail…

Ah, but they’re only two years old, we have to wait another two years for them to fix it. We’re just so impatient, we need to be patient haha.

Maybe if we are quick enough getting a report through, gaijin might give the scimi 2 its spall on launch… I know I know… a dream…

Also looks like the Scimitar 2s ammo boxes are not armoured currently?
And I think the fuel tanks are supposed to have limited armour also?

Well, asked, and got an answer about if we need more data on the scimi 2 spall lining.
So I guess anyone with any good pics/data use the previous reports to help back yourself up and punt it in to hopefully get spall lining before it goes live and is forgotten for 5 years?

Noticing that Striker’s UFP is AA7017 25mm, while Scimitar mk2 is 7039 20mm, which one is correct?
neither of them are most probably correct, from what ive been able to roughly measure on CVRTs ive gotten close to at museums but i havents been able to get close enough to a striker or spartan hull with a tape measure to give any hard figures

I heard that some Strikers are owned by private collectors. If I could get accurate information from them, that would be great, but unfortunately, I don’t have any of their contact information

CVRTs are quite common in private ownership. they were quite cheap until the ukraine war where a lot of them were sent over there (despite being pretty useless for the most part due to their demilitarisation) so its common to see them at military shows by private collectors or at random little museums across the island

The fact its happened on multiple RARDEN unpowered vehicles now though is just beyond dumb though. It genuinely makes me question the claims of “thoroughly researched” frankly.

thats the one thing i dont like about dev servers
You have to wait a whole weekend for any reports or stuff to change
Would be much nicer if the normal teaser-dev stream was monday-tuesday, or sunday-monday rather than the normal thursday-friday

They got rid of the FCS?
Good news but does it still have gunner TVD1, commander thermal, J60 sound, etc? Last I saw there was still plenty of stuff outstanding.
The gunner is still only using Gen 1 Thermals.
When using the commander sight, you are still able to use thermals.
It still have the same engine sound as the Scimitar Mk 1.
For the FCS, from what I can see in the hangar, it only controls the “NVD” now, I have not been able to test it in yet.
