So does the BTR-3E1 in WT just not have thermals anymore??
Regarding the «Panorama-2P», I only have information that it is a television system. Could you please share a source confirming whether it also has night vision capabilities?
Later, I plan to create a bug report regarding the control duplication system in the BTR-3E1.
Thermals and NVD are seperate
I’ve gotta track it down, but here’s some images for fun:
Not official source but fun read:

But the driver NVD is an easy fix, they can just swap in NVD periscopes like any other BTR

Link doesnt work
It looks like they have restricted access to the bug report.
what was the bug report for?
In general, this is what was described in the bug report:
From my own account, I still have access to the bug report, so I am providing a screenshot of it here, including the response from the bug report system manager.
(I also noticed that the video has disappeared from the report. In that video, the commander was firing from his position using the thermal imaging channel of the «OTP-20» optics. The muzzle flashes from the 30mm cannon characteristically occur on the right side, because the module itself is located to the left of the gun-unlike the «Panorama-2P» panoramic sight, which is positioned above the gun.)

Dont forget about the potential btr-3 with the 90mm cockrill turret. They never operated it, but i think they did test it.

Here, thai soldiers trying it with the 90mm cockerill turret.
But even cooler :
Here the BTR-3E with cockerill 30mm presented by cockerill… it could be added in the same logic as the Stingray to Belgium (since cokerill is Belgian) :
an unammed turret on a EFV could be a great addition in the France tech tree.

Ya thats another cool btr-3 variant they could add to thialand.
Plus it looks like these btr variants might be a little more armored.

No
France can get the same turret with the same gun on the Panhard CRAB
Dont need this BTR
if it is added…
But it would be so fun (and so RAT)
But the variant that interested the Armée de Terre wasn’t using this turret, and did not been accepted at the end.
This one has the cockerill turret
This one was considered by the french Army

the update has been came out but btr 3 still can’t shoot atgms on moving like why they didn’t change something but accepted a problem
They could be doing more research into sources, sometimes it happens. They can also be testing its performance right now too, sometimes they draw it out. As long as it’s not denied, we can still hope.

I really hope that’s the case. Especially for the target tracking that was removed (hopefully because it was broken and they’re working on it) from the dev server.
Once fixed this could finally give some ground based air defense to the Thai 9.3 lineup. Especially because it’s the only reasonable lineup you can currently make with just Thai vehicles.
