FV510 Warrior IFV - Technical Data and Discussion

So… what’s their source for the fire restrictions?

We have what seems an arbitrary decision by developers which the community is then required to provided sources to disprove.

Let me be clear, I support a fire-on-the-move restriction but only because of the risk of command wire entanglement. At the moment nothing indicates that the launchers deploy electronically.

Yeah seems like the ideal solution would just to have them fireable as soon as the speed range is met.

im not saying that it can fire a speed but that the launchers can only be unfolded by the crew

It should not fold at all as the crew won’t get out to unfold it

Even from looking at there is no way it is folded mechanically and has to unfolded manually

There is no evidence that the lauchers can fold how the Bradleys do

If it has the fire restrictions of the Bradley does that mean we could get the Bradley’s ammo load too? /j

Try using another image. I tried to use one that you’ve posted here, and it didn’t work as well. I think they check the file extension or something like that.

That is not the desert warrior

its DRV which has the same turret :shrug: (Delco 25 Tow, if that helps your search, I can’t find anything though)

Thats not the DRV thats the DW the DRV lacks the 11th and 12th road wheel

Told you guys this was just going to end up a worse bradley at the same BR.

Also can we all have a moment of silence for the 2.5T being added to the warrior? We got a token theoretical max speed buff from 75-80km/h of which you will never reach now unless you are on the longest, straightest, flattest road or on a long downhill.

Overall in testing the warrior is realistically looking at a loss of around 10km/h max speed on the flat with a slight curve over distance.

Also obviously slower acceleration.

We can’t stop winning.

shouldn’t we just be showing it cant be unfolded due to it not having the mechanism. Im not sure anyone was saying it should fire on the move? all we want is for it not to require the unfolding mechanic as it doesn’t make much sense. could you expand on that, when you say fire restrictions, do they mean it cant fire on the move or that it’ll have to wait for the missile pods to raise? as fire on the move inst what we want, what we want is for it to not have an unrealistic unfolding mechanism that would only serve to make it worse for no reason.

So no mechanical means for it to unfold before firing… Therefore if it enters a combat situation the tow launcher should already be deployed by the crew beforehand… This animation no only doesn’t make any combat sense for the crew having to expose themselves to fire it’s also a waste of development time, this is a huge a negative towards the vehicles performance in game. The minimum speed for firing is fine… The manually folding folding atgm launcher is ridiculous (plus you’ve already showcased it in the dev blog as fixed) great way to annoy people.

I want to make it abundantly clear this isn’t a dig at the moderators. However, sometimes the wording is not the clearest (although im one to talk with the grammer skills of a kid). In this case it was when he said we needed to find evidence of the ability to fire on the move, and that it would have the same “launching requirements” as the Bradly? this could be taken as it simply not being able to fire on the move or it will have the folding mechanism.

would just like some clarification is all so we know what we need to report.

I just don’t understand their logic of a tow launcher that needs to be manually lifted and lock into position, before getting into a combat zone they absolutely would already be deployed and ready to fire. The crew wouldn’t be popping up every 20 seconds to raise and lower them both, it’s stupid…and apparently we need a source to prove otherwise… I thought common sense would be enough. The Bradley actually has a mechanical element to lower and raise the launcher not exposing the crew… Not to mention it’s double the weight of the desert warriors as it has to support 2 missiles so it makes sense to have it retractable.

Is Desert Warrior really worth 10.0BR? Only 4 missiles and 25mm cannons like shit. It’s not as good as Italy’s Dado, not even even the M3A3 Bradley.

Gaijin has always been biased against the British

I’m glad for British lights are finally getting added to the game but Bradley 25mm is god awful.

I don’t expect much from this when its more than likely going to be equally as poor as the current Bradleys which IMO aren’t that good at all.

Haha, Gaijin has not added British vehicles using CT40, but added non-recyclable garbage to hinder British players.

Honestly, if given the choice, I would take Fox over the D.Warrior.

Then at least I have unbridled mobility and a gun thats capable of killing a MBT from more then 2 feet away at the side.

True dude
