Major Update "Heavy Cavalry" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

Ajax IFV
ARTEC 30mm Boxer
ARTEC GmbH Boxer A1
Patria LMUK

and those are just the british ones that arent just using CROWS-J

there is a variant of the JLTV that could come but i fear it would be british or european because this specific variant was made for the european market atleast from the artical im reading from it says its for the euro market, it has a 25MM cannon and 4 missiles idk if they’re AA or AT missiles

Oshkosh is trying to get the USMC to purchase it but rn from the artical im reading says its british or european and this photo was taken outside of london so i fear it would be british

Seems like the SEPv3 is really going to remain a worse SEPv1…

Whoever makes these decisions at Gaijin is wild lmao. Adding a highly requested and very hypable top tier MBT and they make it redundant before it even hits the live server.

A Patria AMV with a hellfire turret would be pretty cool as a high tier ATGM tank destroyer

im pretty sure the hellfires and brimstones mounted on tank turrets are MMW and we know gaijin aint adding MMW any time soon so i doubt they’ll come

They still think 1979 and 2026 is the same thing lol

They smoked so hard that they think M1A2C, XM1147 are all correct designations
in the devblog they said it was called previously sepv3 and now m1a2C???

You can give them jesus, christ and the holy mother all together, they ain’t gonna accept that hull source

yeah its pretty depressing there is also literal photo evidence that the hull is thicker but hey cant really do much besides make posts complaining about it

also Renzo see that the challenger 3TD wasn’t included in the mantlet buff the other challenger 2s got lmao it really is the worst challenger past 11.7

ground launched MMV would probably far more balanced but gaijin is allergic to the idea of even considering MMV and they wont add a stop gap as it isnt historical (they will however completely ignore armaments for planes)

speaking of the 3TD, why was it added to the game? it isnt even in full production its barely just finished field testing

In the files it’s called challenger 2LEP lmao

A poor attempt to add a new hype vehicle that failed miserably

It could not exist and nothing would change minimally

when a gaijin dev finds out what common sense is this game will finally have balance but obviously thats never gonna happen

the 3TD was the tech demonstrator so the thing they showed off to announce it, it was meant to be a counter part to the 2A7V but then gaijin hit it with repeated nerfs to the point that its now worse then the standard challenger 2s

gaijin said that MMW radar cant tell the difference between friendlies or enemies and is why they arent adding it, yet they can because the radar paints a map and any friendly silhouette gets essentially blanked out, it would work the same with SPAA and airborne IFF radars but gaijin wont add it because it means LMURs and KH38s wont be top dog but brimstones will be and they HATE the british

them nerfing the engine and not giving it spall liners in on the lfp or giving it a 5s reload etc etc its just like whats the point anymore

IIR cant tell the difference but here we are lol

they also havent modeled the chobham/dorchester armor in properly either

to look pretty and to never leave the hanger lol, with the M1A1 AIM and M1A2 Sep V3 there is no reason to ever bring the 3TD

11.7 just bring the 4 Challenger 2s at 12.7 bring the 2 abrams and 2 challenger 2s

even at 12.0 I would take the M1A1 AIM and the 4 11.7 Challenger 2s before the 3TD

the 3TD doesnt have its KE2020Neo dart or its multi-purpose programmable ammo, doesnt have its trophy APS, doesnt have its modular epsom and farnham armor, it has none of its main selling points, its worse than a chally 1 atp

It would be cool to see any Javelins. One day we might see vehicles with autoloaded javelin turrets

i wanna see my challenger 2 megatron or streetfighter 2 MOD with their MMW brimstones
