I’d imagine diameter would be more of an issue, 4.5” MILAN compared to 6” TOW
im more referencing the spot they put them at, as it looks like they would be slap dap right in the middle of the troop compartment with nothing holding them down. at least if they put them in the old spots it would make a tad more sense as rn it shows they know as much as us. so itll be down to “according to our experts” more than a documentation. so unless we get said documentation i doubt well be getting anything changed tbh…sadly.
You can find pictures of entire shipping boxes on the side, I wouldn’t read too much into it. Crews tend to grab anything they think is useful if command doesn’t catch them
Spoiler
Probably more the packaging than anything else.
Still I would say 2+4 is reasonable even without sources.
gaijin doesn’t do reasonable, they do whatever they chose is correct and without documentation they will continue to do whatever they like. im all for getting it changed but after the years of effort put into the challenger im just trying to not get our hopes up.
Since it is unlikely that the TRIGAT MR will be replacing the Milan, the Warriors of the Milan platoons are currently fitted with storage racks on the left side of the interior to hold 12 missiles. Up to now, without the racks, during operations the crew crammed up to 20 missiles into the rear of the vehicle.
By the way, is there any source stating that the Warrior carries only 8 missiles? 12 missiles would be nice, it would be on par with the Bradley.
8 isnt even the most it could carry as of now according to gaijin as in the xray the left side only holds 3 of the 4 that could fit so it really should be 8+1. no idea why they think an extra MILAN to miss with would help that much.
Damn I am really proud of everybody. I feel good to put my 3 cents into this case just by playing the warrior during my job
I would pay money to see gaijin model a pile of Milan’s in the back of the warrior, I would laugh so much and spam milans at everything
Do you guys think they’ll add thermals to the desert warrior?
Yes, I think it’s just a dev server oddity that it currently lacks them. Should hopefully appear with the update.

Additionally, the gunner’s thermal sight is GEN 2, perfect for homing-in on enemies at distances in all types of weather.
Also the reverse being same as forward is incredibly nice.
Someone asked me about FoM being confirmed, I hadn’t heard anything about that (especially since the article calls the launchers “deployable”), but I did check the datamine and removing FoM is incredibly easy, just 2 lines in the vehicle’s .blk, so I’m kinda hopeful that it’s an intended feature
What is FoM?
but only four atgm,which is disappointing
Fire on the Move
I was always under the impression that TOW missiles inherently cannot be fired on the move due to the fact they are wire guided, is that not the case?
