Remember the golden rule. Gepard sees you regardless of whether it wants you to or not. Gepard sees whatever it wants to see.

It’s so annoying. It’s not quite as bad as Sidam, but I swear they’ve nigh perfect aim

Reject M109. Reject calls for the AS90

Embrace the funi Abbot ;)

(and not the value engineered Abbot for India lol)

For the funi, for the meme, to troll the AS-90 fanboys!

You mean


?

Instead of a loud bang, the Abbot goes “poof”

Though, in fairness, it being a 105mm means faster reload!

AI Gepards fire laser guided shells clearly.

Main reason I haven’t got my stuff sorted to play Sim again. Waiting on strike aircraft I like that I won’t just be deleted with no warning.

Sad frogfoot noises

Thats the Falcon. The Value Engineered Abbot is 1 without electronics etc, hand cranked turret, no load assist, keeping cost down.

these arent gaps needed to be filled, especially not by copypaste

Faster reload compared to what?

The AS-90 can shoot 3 rounds in 10 seconds, if the wikipedia article isn’t lying

NO. SHUT. IT WILL HAVE 10 SECOND RELOAD.

Not me preferring Jets because I don’t have to worry about my plane trying to murder me in cold blood every 10 seconds (I forgot to trim)

An M109A1, one hopes.

And yes, the AS90 can fire 3 rounds in 10 seconds. At least, if firing with blank/demo rounds is to be believed.

IIRC the Abbot had a burst of something like 8 rpm, could be misremembering though. Also BESH only.
