I’ve gotten contradictory infos about this still. From what I understood, there was some type of auto tracking (and not stabilised sight, for that only the commander sight of the 10RC/10RCR actually is) found on the Brenus and 10RCR to which the gun would slave and fire only when in the correct direction. However from what I have heard neither the 10RC nor the base AMX30B2 did have those features, so it’s at best a late 90s thing, still later than other countries actual stabilised vehicles (M1s, Leo 2s, Challengers…)
Edit : to be fair, I haven’t actually had any concrete infos on either it’s existence or not, so take what I say with a big, big grain of salt
I would’ve preferred the Warrior CSP as well … but something is better than nothing
Still not sure if the desert warrior’s gonna be premium or squadrdon … but the CSP’s defo gonna be in TT in future.
Who got the last Canadian stuff ? Germany and US, right ? since Germany already has plenty of Leo 2A4, US might actually get it lol (or as a squadron tank for Germany, which would be even funnier)
Even if it did, I have reasonable doubt that type of FCS would be replicated in game, so we’re stuck with them being wobbly goblins. Admittedly I find it interesting for this part of French military history they went so long without gun stabilization.
First reason is because they did not believe it was useful at first. Then it simply because they were stalling for the Leclerc as they did not want to spend money upgrading AMX 30 only to have them removed from service shortly after
Tbf, lots of countries were late to that, F-22s still don’t have it yet operationally and US F-16s got theirs only in something like 2016 or some sort.
I’m 80% certain that the lack of gun stabilization was because doctrine was more static. You’d speed over to one area and stay there as you essentially leapfrog each other.
I doubt there’s a single soul playing WT that wants to see F/A-18B or D in game. All of them would be just unreasonably hard to balance unless they use some Gaijin magic to make these jets worthy.
Imo F/A-18A with late engines could possibly come as an event jet with 9L and 7M while C and C+ could be added to the tt with different variations of FOX3+FOX2 missiles + other small changes.
