Wait, are you sure about this? That would kill my hype for the tank entirely :/

Just view it as a sidegrade to the Leopard 2PL minus some things :(

It’s not a KF51, but at least it’s not another Boxer with a Bushmaster

Apparently on the dev server this has better thermals. Anyone know if this is correct? I thought it retained the standard 2A4 sights

you can take a look yourself, CMIIW but it looks like the base 2A4 sight to me

That’s what I thought, yeah. Wonder if they got slightly confused with the 2SG?

could be, but they bothered to model the driver camera (unique to 2RI), so presumably they’re aware of its specs

someone gotta bug report that though, maybe an oversight

Is the Leopard 2RI supposed to have similar protection to the Leopard 2A4?


Also, the addon armor is just armored glass. Is this correct?

Obviously not. The side skirts are the same as on Strv 122B+.

Behind the AMAP applications, yes.

I think its still not done so I would give it time. Hopefully it can take some hits but if she can handle getting hit by RPG I would be happy for using it in infantry mode.

It should provide quite decent protection (following suggestion has more about it), the missing C-Tech however kinda breaks the neck still.

Lets hope she gets okay armor just so I can drive around without thinking then again that’s not a very Japanese main tree thing to do 😝

Gaijin though might have not modeled the armor yet so give it time doubt they will keep it armored glass unless there is some sort of special material I don’t know of yet.

Anyone happen to have a close up image of the reg plate? Or the turret cheek decal please? :)
