Leopard 2A8 - The Newest and Newly made in Bavaria

Eh… would be good finally to see 2A8 in-game.
Instead of boats, kayaks, bushmasters and premium CAS.

Nope! Here is Leopard 2RI to Japan…

BVVD said on stream that we shouldn’t expect Leopard2a8 this year, do you think it’s true?

I also wanted to ask if the 2a8 will have some kind of additional armor package on its sides like the PSO?

He said maybe an aps leo.

While 2a8 is likely, that cam mesn 2a7a1 or awiss as well

Thats a no. The side armor is mainly protection against heat shells. Which the aps takes over

I think leo2a7a1 will be no problem to add to the game, but 2a8 is still difficult, we have to wait at least until 2027

2a8 is actualy more likely all things considered.
Besises that the 2a8 is just a 2a7v with aps and lws. Its nothing special all things considered.
But the 2a8 can be added to sweden via norway and in the further future to france as well

But it should appear in Sweden a year later than in Germany. Of course, the STRV 123A could appear now, but without the trophy, it’s a pure carbon copy of the 2A7v. Germany should already have its 2A8 by 2027, while the Swedes will probably get their STRV 123B in 2028.

there is no rule for that

its 2 months old, thats not even sth that can be put into planning yet.

Norway is a subtree of sweden and those sweden is entitled for the 2a8 norwegian.
All things considered i doubt if the strv123a will even appear anytime soon, if at all.
Its more likely for them to never receive it

There is a rule: until a tank officially becomes part of the army, it will not be added in any way. This was the case with the 2a7hu until it arrived in Hungary; it was not added to the game. According to BVVD, the same will happen with the 2a8.

The Strv 123a, unlike the 2a8 Norway, is at least already supplied, and it can be added, unlike the 2a8 Norway

I don’t know whether you know or not what the equipment delivery schedule is. Germany is first on the list, then Norway, which is not currently a branch of Sweden, and the Swedes are already in 4th place on this list.

That rule doesnt exist, there is multiple examples of tanks having been added before official service.

KF41, Schwer Waffenträger

as you said when it was handed over.

Norway already has the 2a8, you seem to be way behind on information, they got them at the same time as the german ones

From the official handover ceremony

And here they are arriving in norway

buddy, you are the one being completly wrong. norway is at the same time as germany.
They already had plans/orders for a 2a7 before the 2a8, which switched to the new standard

I know that Norway already has the 2a8, but Norway itself is not currently a Swedish sub-branch. I am not against the Swedes having the 2a8, and they will be given it in 2028 only as the STRV123B, possibly even with additional protection like the STRV122.

I’m all for the German tank to be the first to be added to the game, and then through an update or several others.

Has been ever since the TT mosquitos were added to Sweden

no you did in fact not, you just said norway doesnt have the 2a8.
Stop contradicting yourself.

you general game knowledge is wrong. Norway is part of the swedish tree

Did you miss major norwegian vehicles being added to the swedish tree?

There is literaly a small norwegian air subtree, i ignored the low br ones in that

I haven’t seen Norwegian technology from the Swedes, but I’m not saying that the Norwegian Leopard should be given to the Germans, don’t twist the words, I’m talking specifically about the Bundensfer variant.

i never said that, what kind of busted translator are you using

Sweden can get the norwegian 2a8 at the same time as germany receives theirs.
