Awesome work on listing the prototypes hope to see them all one day.

[Fireraid233]

Extended storage?

[JoshX9706]

I noticed this in the old forum, and wondered if there was any additional information about this, or if its even legit

[Fireraid233]

its real and since the Type 16s hull is from the same one shown in those pics only slightly modified ofc it might be possible for the Type 16 to use that package. and if not at least the new IFV and RCV can use it since it’s the exact same hull.

Documents released by the Ministry of Defense have confirmed that the armor of Prototype 99-0291 of the Type 16MCV is the Increased Armor Type III.

[JoshX9706]

Can we realistically expect this upgraded type 16 to be added?

[Fireraid233]

That or maybe a separate vehicle using this package

[JoshX9706]

What kind of armor is that? Era?

[Fireraid233]

Yeah that is what we need to find out lol some kind of ERA or composite blocks idk tbh.
