So desert warrior is just a worse bradley at the same BR yeah?
Neat.

No, same gun, ammo and missiles. The D warrior is faster and its TOW launcher don’t fold like the bradley’s, its also a lot smaller, unless there is something im missing, the D warrior is better :)

blasphemy, i would say its better as from the looks of it the atgms dont fold down meaning we dont have to wait for them to arm unlike the bradly. plus the warrior isnt a bus so we can actually zoom about. with the spall liner the warrior would be flat out better in every way. im not sure what gen the bradlys thermals are either so i cant comment on that. the only thing i can think of is the commander sight.

At worse its equal to the M3A3 Bradley

The desert warrior has no thermals and you do not have commanders optics that the bradley does.
Also a weaker engine.

thermals is a bug? it definitely had it irl.

Desert warrior is a WIP, so it should get thermals by the update

Hey, report about the spall liner as well. There’s one for the Warrior from Fireball. You can use this:

Yeah can do

Slight problem though, it would appear the bug report website doesn’t like me :)

Will attempt later

The DWarrior is still WIP. it’ll have all those things come live server.

Honestly, it should. BGTI came in 2001, Milan was retired in 2005 and the Catherine upgrades for Scimitar are from 2009+ so we’re looking at the 2001-2005 window. You can have Milan or Gen 3 TI, not both.

Warrior will be perfectly viable with Gen 2.

Does it have aircraft tracking?

Warrior should stay how it is right now until more variants of the actual warrior are added, not the Desert warrior

The missile launchers absolutely should fold, or this is some grade-A BS that the Bradley still has ahistorically retracting launchers

The launchers are not mechanically folding, as so they wont fold in war thunder

Maybe this was answered before, but is there any possibility of the Desert Warrior recieving more missiles?

But the thing is, no Warrior variant has received Catherine MP Gen 3 thermals in real life.
The Catherine MP upgrade was something only on some Scimitars that had ESPIRE (and not those Scimitars that already had BGTI). It’s not unlike the limited TISP upgrade on some Challenger 2s - a UOR effort to replace obsolescent Gen 1+ systems. Warrior’s Gen 2 BGTI thermals are actually still considered quite modern - certainly for an IFV.

Even the WCSP/Warrior 2 was intended to still be using the same thermal imager as c.2004 BGTI when it entered service. Thales just improved the sight heads with dual-axis stabilisation to go with the stabilised CTA40 gun, where the original BGTI ones paired with RARDEN are only stabilised in a single plane (the gun isn’t stabilised at all).

Gen 3 thermals would be one of the things that sets Ajax with its Orion and DNGS-T3 sights, apart from WCSP.

Yeah I get all this, but I would rather have it as is, until more warrior variants are added, which can then be made accurate.
As Rulan said, we shouldn’t even have the MILAN with the thermals we have

Yeah my bug report website is still not allowing me to create reports

Here is a picture of it on the dev if anybody else wants to make a few more ‘dupe’ reports. I can also go on the dev to help anybody who doesn’t have access
