Leopard 2A8 - The Newest and Newly made in Bavaria

yes please! trying to find info about the 2A8 at the show is impossible with all the focus on CAPINT lol

edited to add pics i finally found some (source)

Another Edit! It was brought to my attention that the softkill APS package on here is actually ODAEON, a newer evolution of MUSS with extended capability such as detecting drones and other optical targeting systems.

Suggestion updated; added more pictures, additional phrase in History and litte more about the new ODAEON suit - likely to be integrated as well.

2a8 with LDIRCM will be so trolly when facing case and dircm Helis

Gaijin would somehow say it only has 10° coverage or LMUR is resistant to it

They can’t even do that since muss 1.0 (although doesn’t work in game) is full 360 as well and lmur is IR so it should get dazzled

Should is the keyword

Yes. It should function as a APS system lmao

You never know with gaijin tbf

It depends on if MITL weapons can overcome the laser based DIRCM.

MITL still uses the IR seeker
so no bueno

We’ll see. Since some weapons can use the visible spectrum EO.

i dont think modern IIR AGMs have TV seekers

Most top tier helicopter weapons have a dual mode EO/IR feature which idk if it is modeled in game yet.
Like for CM-502KG should be EO+IR+IOG+GNSS and I think Spike LR 2 is similar along with LMUR.

Can they in game already?

Honestly I’m not sure I never tried, I’m going to go off on a limb and say no.

So then 2a8 would be fine lmao and be safe from literally everything

Not particularly, and I doubt the 2A8 will come with the DIRCM since it looks to be a mock up. Maybe later as a separate vehicle perhaps

That’s what the production vehicles will be like. And unless the add the tech demo the prototype and the production it doesn’t make sense. It would like just come with its full ODAEON system

If the USA and the RUSSIANS got new APS tanks (russia now has 5 germany has 0) germany need to get this in the next update after the heavy cavalry the german toptier without APS is PAINFUL but russia has the BEST CAS THE BEST SPAA THE BEST ATGM-s and now THE BEST APS TANK. Germany also needs a new Anti ERA round if they have (if anyone knows anything about german Anti-ERA rounds please reply) Because sometimes the BMPT ERA eats the DM53 from the side.I hope this one gets an LWS

denied by gajin, for … reasons, the dev was to bad at translating eng.

The only real anti era modifier round per gajin would be DM83 which isnt in service yet

It does, but wasnt equipped on the roll out version yet
