oh my god, that’s a coat hanger or a Door stopper butnot an APS
Bad but beautiful
I read somewhere that the pic from before was photoshoped to see how the final product would look before it was a thing, i didnt know it was now a thing, i would go find where i read it, but seeing as there’s more pics now and its an actual tank now it doesnt really matter
Sorry man, but for me it looks like some 60y old man attached it in His garage in 20 min
And im not talking about looks, just the way it is made hurts my eyes
don’t we have that Merkava already?
yeah we do ingame you can have a better look of the aps the block behind the sensor its just the computational devices for the radar thingy, Merkava MK4M
that’s probably exactly what it is
not even surprised at this point lmao
no way
by the way, isn’t that a terrible place to put it?
what if you have multiple tanks engaging together and one from slightly behind shoots, wouldn’t that trigger the APS?
idk why did he got that the 2A7A1 now gonna be designated as 2A8 its fake
Well, maybe that one picture is a Photoshop, but these two are definitely real.
I’ll say it. I think it looks better with the trophy system on. It breaks up the turret shape, and gives a more “blocky” aesthetic. The flat turret face of Leopard 2a4 was peak honestly, and this reminds me of it for some reason. Don’t kill me please.
Too fast maybe it won’t trigger
I mean that is the point of APS. But it measures the doppler, so it can destinguish to some point if things go at you or rather go next to you
because that specific picture was photoshoped before it was a thing, as i corrected earlier
pictures are the prototype VT-ETB II , the 2a7a1 as you said doesnt realy exist yet, but 2a7V are supposed to be converted to the 2a7a1 even now, while simutanously getting the 2a8
german military are more indecise than my grandma tbh
oh yes
Teaser at 0:01GMT? Would be Thursday
The 2A8 demonstrator is actually not the VT-ETB II. It’s based on danish 2A7, while the VT-ETB II is basically a 2A7V with Trophy. (Please don’t tell the swedish mains, they will claim it :p)
