To top it off their best argument is that it’s built off of a Sherman. They are not completely wrong but they aren’t right either.
It was built off of a Grizzly a Canadian-built and modified Sherman and on top fo that the UK tested and ordered Skinks.
More of a clam than the US has.
Which they shouldn’t even have. The UK was already in the game at the time and they actually operated them.
And that’s after the fact the Ram is classified as:
“Tank, Cruiser, Ram” which is the Britsh tank classification scheme.
But you seem to be in the same opinion as I so I have no idea why I’m talking about this.
But another thing this should confirm that the standard leo 2a7 didnt receive the internal armor upgrade, the add on armor alone shouldnt bring the defense capability up to matchbthe turret
Now that would be funny and not against Gaijin to Give Britain a top tier battleship as our “top tier aircraft” (though could probably still outturn the F3)
It states the hull protection was raised to turret level, which would mean ~1000mm if you take War Thunder numbers. That is much better than the Strv 122.
I agree that it would be nice for Germany to get some hull armour but the 2A7V is just too much and I don’t want to see it get gimped either.
