Next Major Update - "Eagle's Shadow" Rumour Roundup & Discussion (Part 2)

Compared to the crap that the Mech scan Radar was and yes Typhoon had to face jets with PESA Radars the gap is not huge between the Rafales Radar, the Su-30SM2 Radar and Typhoon AESA

And that is with Gaijin holding the performance back as it was scanning near double the speed of what we have in game.

Trademarked sir

I sue for infringement /s

(But yes, update likely next week. I don’t think there are many things ‘broken’ that can’t be fixed by this Friday)

Heya Smin, I got a small Question.
I have found an Inconsistency with the Leopard 2s Roof Armors. On one hand we have the 2A7HUs Roof Armor that is just 20mm RHA but on the Strv/2A6HEL its 20mm Structural Steel + Composite.
So which of these two is the more accurate one since on the 2A8 the Extra Hatch Armor is missing.



Because this is quite confusing…

Hey. If you have soruces to suggest they should be the same, it can be reported. However different Leopards / Packages can have differing compositions.

The 2A8 itself isnt final.

I believe there is a frigate and crusier under the name HMS Danae, im guessing its the crusier that is coming?

Thanks for the Answer!
Issue is that the latest Leopard 2 Model ingame made was the 2A6HEL that came out last update and it was with the Strv 122s Hatch Armor. And the difficult part is that both hatches on the 2A7HU and the Strvs look identical hence why im having slight issues with bug reporting that Issue.

Has bug report about German 2A8 missing LWS made/accepted?

Its sadly not planned nor is the Roof MG. (One look into the Bug Reporting Area with Leopard 2A8 missing LWS with tons of Not a Bugs should tell that)

A few has been made, I don’t think any has been accepted on the base its either optional equipment for export or hasn’t been planned yet.

^mg gun

^LWS

There’s been a few other reports where its not a standard modification, its optional for export or there isn’t enough evidence.

Well that’s disappointing, really hoped that it would have gotten it especially after the gun depression nerf, but I am still excited for it

something tells me leopard players would’ve preferred just regular depression instead, but now they get both /s

To be Fair the Bundeswehr does state the that the Leopard 2A8 is gonna have 2 MGs (Just like the 2A7V, 2A7A1 etc.) but alas… I was denied with even that Info.

But even on the Rollout we saw that the German 2A8 had a Mount

Make a bug report with this since the devs seem to insist germany plans to order the leo 2a8 without a roof mg

You can try reporting with this information if its directly from the Bundeswehr, but they might reject it on the base its not complete/concrete, similar to the F-15EX MAWS being in a weird spot where its being decided if its for standard service or not.

I did and this was the response.

Both the reports I showed had statements directly from the developers, the Mods just review things. Its like saying that I’m saying the same thing because the 2A8 Suggestion on the forum had MG + LWS.

With the new Kai it’s as simple as a software update allows Air to air engagements

To be honest… I dont get why a simple MG3A1 on a german Tank would be such an issue and the developers Did a lot of discretions on the 2A8 aswell so Its quite confusing to say the least
