Get the Scimitar Mk.2 in the Scimitar Strike Event!

delusional

Thermals (same as Warrior, BGTI), Laser rangefinder and a more powerful diesel engine (235bhp (238ps which is what the game uses)

Base scimitar in the tech tree gets none of those. No thermals, No laser and only a 195ps petrol engine

Sounds like a marketing lie

Yeah it loses about 20% of it’s hp/ton ration -

Mk 1 Ratio: ~24.3 hp per tonne (190 hp / 7.8 tonnes)
Mk 2 Ratio: ~19.1 hp per tonne (235 hp / 12.25 tonnes)

It’s got a butt ton more torque - ~230–240 lb-ft (~310–325 Nm) for the Jaguar, vs 400–450 lb-ft (~540–610 Nm) for the upgrade.

Not sure if that counts for much in WT tho??

No, Scimitar Mk.2 has 3rd gen, BGTI is 2nd gen.

@Stona_WT is that the only picture you have of it? Let us see more angles, and actually have the tea station on top visible :)

I like it, but still 35k mission points is an ask and a half
Will it just be fox on stormer hull?

0.84 KD and add several tons without a meaningful upgrade to the powerpack.

The warrior is bad.

This event variant would be slower at a higher BR with a 30mm. Thermals and a LRF aren’t going to help it at all.

“Slightly modified” this is in the same sense as the UH-1Y/AH-1Z. Similar to the original in name and name alone, everything on it is new or revised.

worse power to mass and larger but thermals (thermals shouldnt change BR they arent really that important) and LRF.

torque is marketing lie, you will fail to climb slight hill still.

It physically cant go higher than 8.0, warrior is 8.3 with the same thermans and LRF, but has even better armour and MILAN 2 missiles. APFSDS (which we didnt use or has never been mentioned as used) still wouldnt make up for the lack of euromissile

It’ll be faster due to the ability to remove the cages and mine protection. For a 2-5t weight increase you get 45hp more, an automatic transmission and still have 19.2hp/t.

back when the mk1 was added sure.

the amount of bug reports i did means that this is not the case now.

14.5mm proof (base one should be but this one really should be)

And recent ones are what? Premium t34 with flag?

I think all nations had some interesting stuff somewhere back then.

XM800T sends greetings from 8.7

LOL, it’s like that sometimes, I was playing a 109 the other day and put a few dozen Minengeschoß rounds into someone for no effect… then blew his wing clean off with a 7.92 round…

that wretched thing is fox mobility with stabiliser. it ought to be 9.0

scimitars arent even close to that overperforming hellspawn

Why do events always focus on certain countries? Shouldn’t it rotate?

Britain two times in a row

We all got major russia slop fatigue so gaijin is focusing on britain for a while it seems.

Is this something you know or is it just hope?
