The lws does what is at a lower rank while giving your lrf

When’s the made up 61Km/h top speed nerf getting removed?

i won they did

No cammo netting is quite sad :(

Thats the French tree dead then.

Rafale F.5 and no Gen V F-35
Leclerc will never get the buffs and changes it needs

That’s a fair point.

I thought that the Dutch had already ring-fenced the necessary funds.

I guess we’ll be waiting 'til 2028.

France can get f35.

Only if they accept Dutch vehicles.

What about Italian Leo2A8?

def in top 3 for coolest looking tank

that contract was cancelled, italian changed to KF51

Okay, that is interesting, but why copy paste it to sweden, i can ignore that, but DM53?! Really? Were gonna pair a tank that is by todays standard a modern tank with a shell that is pretty much 20 years old?

It may just be me, and excuse me for it. But damn this is pretty sad.

I shouldnt be suprised…

Ah of course, I thought it was the other way around lol

anything apart from the two blurry ones from the transport on the dock?

Furthermore, Norway places greater emphasis on weight reduction, which is why—unlike the Bundeswehr—it has opted not to install heavy track guards, and while underbody mine protection is technically possible, it has not yet been installed. While the German 2 A8 was equipped according to the D-LBO basic standard, its Norwegian counterpart is equipped with corresponding national radio technology and battle management systems.
