That’s a brilliant proposal. The issue can be resolved by setting the gun elevation and depression angles of the German Leopard 2A7V and 2A8 to -9°/+20° based on Bundeswehr testimonies, while applying the angles verified from photographic evidence for the Norwegian Leopard 2A8 variant.

My last try guys. Hope for the best
already Not a Bug
There is a Korean saying: “A frog can be struck dead by a stone thrown without a second thought.” Due to the provision of a brochure containing incorrect information, the vehicle in question was subjected to an unwarranted “nerf.” Even after providing various research papers, video evidence, and testimonies to have this change reversed, Gaijin has refused to acknowledge or accept them—this, despite the fact that they could easily reach out to KNDS directly to conduct a secondary verification.
Interesting, though it does look like there is something at the front of the hull as well?
I think it may be time to throw in the towel
Yeah
It was my last try now
Yeah, and that’s super frustrating.
I even specifically asked them to at least tell me what’s wrong, etc., but without labeling anything as “not a bug.”
In my opinion, there’s plenty of documentation and evidence provided there. I specifically focused on the HU because it was only shipped with the L55A1, so the devs’ previous arguments don’t hold up (unlike in the 2A7V report).
@Smin1080p_WT i find it disrespectful to dismiss this in a matter of seconds after hours of research and work putting the report together. Is there any way to have it reviewed a second time and at least receive an explanation?
BRM didn’t even answer you this time around, just not a bug lol
o7 tho, thanks for trying
It’s anyway extremely clear they took the direction of once again nerfing a vehicle artificially, it’s not that they can’t see it, they don’t want to
They’d rather players deliver the info they want on a platter, then pick and choose what’s ‘valid’ on an ever changing criteria
If I were to email KNDS I’d want to use as-correct turret names for each tank as possible…
2A7V uses a different turret to the 2A7HU.
& 2A8s use a different turret to the 2A7V.
Can’t comment on 2A8 & 2A7HU cause I’m not familiar enough with the turret design options for the Leopard 2A5+ series of tanks.
Besides the obvious exterior changes of the 2A8’s turret.
There is a way to contact them via the KNDS website. You might want to try reaching out to them. I actually sent an inquiry myself just yesterday.
At this point, KNDS should contact Gaijin for destroying the image of their best product by butchering its depiction in such a popular piece of media.
They are basically doing negative marketing of it.
you need to take a break off the forum cro
(I’m obviously joking… or am I? :P)
(Edit: changed the wording to avoid potential rule-breaking confusion xD)

Never, I am loyal to my boss!

I’m fed up with Gaijin’s double standards: zero tolerance for NATO sources, maximum creative writing for Russia.
They could provide detailed drawings and even drive a 2A8 through the HQ and it still wouldn’t change it.
