New British Army shows that the Ajax seems to have some decent gun depression
Do we have any hard stats for that?

i remember when i just got it and i kept sniping helis out of the air with the atgms while on the move (if you fire them you can guide them in while moving btw). Shame what theyve done to them, makes the vehicle just feel usless at 8.3…
Looks like the RARDEN APDS is going to get nerfed relatively soon.
Gaijin says the reduction in penetration will be “notable” against flat and angled armour.
Perhaps its time to start pushing for the Warrior to receive APFSDS otherwise its going to be useless

I would try and argue that it could see a downtier, but we all know it wont get one along with 8.0 not even being all that great anyway.

Just a cool picture I thought rude not to share. Nothing classified, just a cool looking Warrior picture that people may like.

Was just looking for sources on the APFSDS rounds for the Rarden 30mm on the Warrior, just interested if anyone here knows of such sources, given the mention of the nerf to 30mm APDS rounds, which I’m still unsure if they will go ahead with it or not, and the fact that we could get APFSDS belt for the rarden possibly anyways
There’s one APFSDS for the Rarden, the L21A1 APFSDS made by Rhinmetall, it’s basically their 30x173mm APFSDS (PMC287 etc), recased into a 30x170 case. Pretty much intented for export only.
Unfortunately noone has found any record of the MOD making an order for some :(
Yeah, never ordered, just no operational need.

There’s only a little info around on it for now, the round was accepted as the L21A1 in I believe 2009.

is it just me, or is the Warrior just completely missing a front towing eye, one of the FPE pull covers and one of the bolts on the driver hatch is really tall.
Edit:
I just made a FV510 Warrior mega report on the bug report page. Feel free to check it out and add anything to the comments if you so wish! thanks.

This bug report was meticulously crafted along side someone who is in the military, and actively operates and repairs them; so hopefully it will be good enough for the snail. Any additional info and sources would be great!

that’s deffo a bug. the Milan has its own guidance system not linked to the main gun, so it should work fine despite the gun not having LoS
I can’t make a bug report. Can I rely on you? There is the same bug on Ratel 20 too

even with the bgti and OES3 you could still keep the milan, as it is still compatable with the system. however current SOP’s are for the commander to have several NLAW’s to use instead

correct. they usually store NLAW’s around the turret cage at the back of the crew compartment, and if they see an enemy vehicle, the SOP is to fall back, dismount bods and engage using NLAW if they need to engage at all.
