Any possibility of Chinese TT receiving Bangladeshi L-39ZA?

Arjun might be the next event vehicle

Be careful with such stuff I’ve heard it isn’t digested well.

God I hope not

no i thing the July one that will be British and a " “single-edged, curved sword” so i thing maybe the Indonesian scorpion

Arjun is named after a person/mythological figure, not a sword. The event vehicle is named after a sword.

I am actually looking forward to Arjun for some reason. I know it’s not meant to be top tier worthy, maybe that’s a good thing. A rather different MBT to the norm at more of a fun BR.

If it means the Arjun comes at the same time as the Abrams then man Britain will be eating good

technically the second best, since the US SEPv3 will have (slightly) better firepower.

Speaking of the firepower, I’m wondering how much difference the American round’s improved performance against ERA will make.

Against contact-5 it makes a huge difference, against anything else not really.

Dev server is a good place to test, from screenshots I’ve seen I still expect it to change so it doesn’t end up too good

How’s it against Chinese ERA? I have yet to see screenshots of it against anything but Soviet/Russian ERA

So far on the dev it makes quite a signficant difference against K5 tanks like the T-80U, T-90A and T-72B3.

M829A2 can pen through the UFP on some specific spots against these tanks at really close range, but M829A3 can lolpen the T-73B3 and T-80U UFP at 2km (the max range in the protection analysis) and lolpen the T-90A UFP at about 1500m still iirc.

Not sure, but chinese ERA is very weak so it would probably go right through

I quickly glanced over the ZTZ99A with M829A3 on the dev server yesterday and there the anti era properties didn’t affect FY-4 and FY-5, so there armor still holds up a bit.

I’m logging in now so I’ll take some screenshots.

now that’s interesting… didn’t thought of that

Good to know, I think it might be intended as FY-4 and LIKELY FY-5 both utilize HEAT jets for protection

I know these are only 2 screenshots so far, but they were the only ones I got before the game crashed. I’ll probably just add more screenshots to this post by editing.
