Exactly what i was talking about
If they don’t want to make Merkava armor better, I think they should remove it from the game!
Same for the challanger 2s then, they’re actively worse than the merkavas
Both are horrific it seems
Chally2’s Turret can actually withstand incoming shells together with ufp, it also has Spall Liners while Merkava doesnt have any of them.
I’d say Chally’s sits in better position than Merkava 4’s cause even with reload buff Merkava’s are still pain to play.
The challanger 2 turret is useless at top tier, you get breached before you can even fire due to the abnormal height. Gotta add this, the leopard 2a5 or M1A2 is better than almost (if not all) challanger 2s turret armour wise.
Leo2a5 will and does stop more. So the challanger 2 turret armour as a comparitive isnt it.
Challanger 2 UFP cant stop anything at all, plus it has a massive LFP which even 2.3 td can one tap it through and has far worse survivability when penned due to ammo layout.
Challanger 2 has far worse mobility as well by a long shot.
Challanger 2 Worse reload (plus only a 4 round ready rack) which after that is empty goes up to nearly an 8 second reload.
Edit : L27A1 is also one of the worst top tier rounds as well.
The challanger 2 is also far larger especially side on. And its far louder.
The merkava sucks im not debating that.
Im saying that both of these tanks need some love
And the cr2 is the worst top tier rn.
Edit 2: my point is, we as a player base need to stop this, arguing over what vehicle is worse and should be collectively telling gaijin that what is happening is unfair on minor nations and isnt acceptable.
Look at their solution for france, rather than give the leclercs their irl ammunition, or armour they just added leopards to the tree.
Funny because entire turret of Merkava is weakspot.
It actually can stop some of the Weaker shells and certainly helps a lot against bad shots, Meanwhile entire hull armor on Merkava is weakspot.
Both got similiar mobility, although Merkava is slightly better.
Lmao, Merkava is much larger than Challenger 2.
I agree on this part, personally i would like to see these vehicles to recieve their historical capabilities.
Lazy Gaijin…
gaijin pls stop it :(
how it is :
how it should be :
Have you seen a challanger side by side with the merkava ? Its longer and taller.
I am currently grinding tbe merkava mk3 out…
Lets be honest but, if it aint a god damned abrams, t80 or leopard 2 it just isnt that good at top tier.
Like were drawing straws on what one is marginally worse.
(Overall the challanger 2 is worse due to being hyper situational.)
But both are horrifically bad. And both need fixed
Check the challanger 2 side on as well.
Those are some nice comparisons though.
like a damn slug the challanger 2 tbh xD
