Ger. Leopard 2a8 no LWS?

All 3 Leo 2A7s have the same hull armour.
The main difference is the roof armour add on which germany didnt procure

Spoiler



From what i understand is that gajin for some reason didnt give the 2A7 its D-tech hull array but correct me if im wrong
(same shit to what they pulled with the abrams)

Now, for all three, try aiming from the very tip of the barrel and see what the result is.

Do you mean distance to 0 or other angle?

I am stating the one that is 0.

the heading angle? which angle would you like to see?

I dont really understand what you want me to show

with both angles at 0

so from above?

Here’s hoping it gets added.

Yup here come the Ru babies, I said nothing relating Ru and Israel.

And guess what, most buff issues related to Russia require no community effort to get those in the game.

You gotta get the KNDS owner’s manual uploaded to prove that the l2a8 running around isn’t the one should be in the game, and after that they are gonna ban you for leaking ”sensitive information”.

They are mass removing/NABing issues for majority of l2a8 buffs, i.e. depression angle, speed, mass, armor. (p.s. for the moment the issue asking for US f15ex MAWS ended up getting both 15ex’s MAWS removed, wonder any of these happens to RU).

After all, let’s take a wild guess what happens to the Kh38mt? This thing has only a model on an expo and it’s all over top tier RU jets, wondering

“No RU bias”.

When you apply a Corporate brochure to get a unit buffed. Its no primary source and gets rejected. When a duder submits a corp brochure to vouch for a german nerf, it gets immeadetly accepted and further discussion gets locked.

I am a Japan main and my RU tree is at 6.3…

And can accept that Russian bias is a myth

You will accept it when you grind to the RU top tier.

Either your Japan tree isn’t at the top or you don’t care about winning the game.

By that I mean you probably:

Won’t get any emotional damage when a tank destroyer at 12.0 runs up to your face vaporize your mbt at 13.3 by spamming ctrl and holding left click meanwhile your sabot doesn’t do shi to him to 90% on the hull. (Not a lot on NATO but that should be the thing for Japan if ur not lying)

Or:

Feel it’s reasonable that every single bit of ammunition else than the cannon comes off your jet gets intercepted by pantsir meanwhile your aa gets overridden by RU’s casual agm Kh38mt.

Also:

You probably benefit from ts because Japan got kh38mte that ain’t existing on the real world yet.

The most important thing is to stay true to reality and not make things up.

Let me just summarize this thread’s relevant content so it’s easier to read through and maybe we get back on topic.

The Leopard 2A8NOR carries the ELBIT LWS as Norway specified in their requirements for their combat ready fleet requirements in the Leopard 2A8 order.

The Leopard 2A8 in the game is the german training, testing and prototyping variant which does not yet carry a roof MG or a LWS as delivered to the Bundeswehr units.

The Leopard 2A8 shown at Eurosatory 2026 carried a mockup of the ODAEON Optical Detection and Softkill APS system and Elbit LWS sensors. It is an official Bundeswehr variant being tested at Hensoldt so there is sort of a point of it being in service.

ODAEON as specified by the manufacturer is based on mostly the MUSS 2.0 and the Jammerhead MJ2. It is being developed to be cross compatible with its sensors.

Germany’s requirements for the combat ready Leopard 2A8 fleet include a LWS and presumably the ODAEON system as a whole (combat fleet deliveries supposed to begin early 2027 while ODAEON was to finish development by the end of 2026).

The german combat ready Leopard 2A8 fleet will also carry roof mounted MGs.

Gaijin decided to add the prototyping Leopard 2A8 for Germany and the combat ready variant for Norway/Sweden.

The point of this thread is now to:

A) Ask suggestion mods to maybe escalate a suggestion containing the MUSS 2.0 or Elbit LWS Sensors without ODAEON’s Jammerhead as a middle ground for the german Leopard 2A8 as there must have been a variant of the prototype ingame carrying them in real life.

B) Get a reason as to why the Leopard 2A8 NOR was chosen over the Strv 123A for the swedish tech tree.

C) Inquire / Argue that germany should or could get its combat ready fleet variant rather than the training variant that’s not meant for combat. (Even if in a later update as a foldered variant).

D) Not throw random source-less information around and rally up people that don’t do their own research.

The few sources on the Leopard 2A8 that are credible are in the chat above relatively in the beginning.

I’d like to again remind everyone reading this, that throwing accusations around will not motivate either the devs or suggestion moderators to escalate the issue, I’ve seen some messages in this thread that are more DM worthy than useful for this thread.

@Smin1080p_WT I’m relatively new to the forum and posting, is there a way to get a suggestion moderator to look at this suggestion/ discussion?

Edit: I’m a human and make mistakes, feel free to correct me if it’s relevant and contributes with additional information or maybe credible sources.

This is reflected in my earlier posts before I went indepth into my research.

Edit 2: I just read Who is who and Reporting procedure and should probably ping a suggestion moderator to this thread, sorry smin.

@Arcadia_Nyx, could you, if you find the time, look at this thread please?
