FV107 Scimitar: Single-Edged Sword!

good news for scimitar fans

brakes and neutral turn reports are accepted.

also getting an extra 2.7 horsepower for the engine as the game works in metric horsepower but was still using the mechanical horsepower figure

Now we just have to wait and see if they fix it soon, or if they’ve accepted it and just put it on the shelf for the next 5 years.

Honestly having slat armour at around 7.7 - 8.0 would actually be useful, theres a lot of HEAT being fired at that BR

Really good to see the mobility reports go through, driving Scimitar in WT is actually painful.

Let’s also remember that Scimitar is one of the vehicles that had its NVDs ahistorically removed in Update 2.35.1.62

And its crappy thermals it had on the Dev server that gave a somewhat “advantage” over the 7.7 Fox

Yes, but those were not correct for the version of Scimitar that we have in game.

Ohhhhhhhhhhh… ok

BGTI sight hoods are much larger than the original day periscopes, they’re the same Gen 2 TVD found on Warrior.

Those sights I know have thermals but I thought the old ones were also given some very basic thermals as well

I’ll refer you back to this post, it explains the generations of Scimitar very well.

Gaijin, little heads up for a few more reports in the near future:



Scorpion is next to identical to a scimitar other than primary armament so its usable as a source.

Already cleared with Gunjob that these two are ok for use as a source :-)
