Honestly, with its Giraffe IRST only and it’s shortest range missiles, it wouldn’t be far off TORM1 / Pantsir
IRST has 85 km (120 with radar on a separate vechicle) range, CAMM has 25km range
Huh? IRIS-T SL is only 20KM
That is not the same missile Land Ceptor uses CAMM that originate from ASRAAM
Oh I thought you where talking about the swedish Giraffe IRIS-T launcher
Well, we talk about Giraffe IRST, not the IRIST launcher. Land Ceptor uses Giraffe IRST
You can see it here, The higher one is a data mast and the smaller one is IRT
Yeah ive seen this, some neat shit
Early T-80U (Object 219AS) variant … without any turret ERA but K-5 on the hull
even without ERA, the T-80U looks pretty good.
This or the T-80A at 11.0 would be amazing. Honestly any Soviet T-80 at 11.0 would be welcomed.
Edit: they should split the current T-80U into the U proper (no thermals, BM42, 11.0) and the UM as is at 11.3.
No thermals version already sits with 3BM46 is at 11.0 but with outdated APS. Theres swedish one with thermals and 3BM42 at 11.0 as well, so if you would add version without 3BM46 or thermals you would just make a worse version than these two. Also removing thermals would mean its pre T-80UM model, so for historical accuracy 1250 HP engine should be switched to 1100 HP engine instead.
I do support the idea though.
Not really, there’s early and late T-80U’s with either engine.
Either would be historically accurate.
edit - actually technically only the 1250HP engine is historically accurate for the 3D model.
They’d have to remodel the engine exhaust grill to one like the T-80B’s for a 1100HP engine.
Yeah what we have right now is a T-80UM basically just not in name.
I just want something at 10.7/11.0 in the TT for the T-80, it sucks that the only one for the Soviets is marketplace.
Isnt it Agava 2? Agava has been mounted on one or several (probably one) T-80B, while Agava 2 was mounted on one T-80U as tests in 1987 and then on T-80UM.
I just was lazy to write “2”
Fair.
The T-80U we have has the thermal no? Like the T-80BV, it’s prototypical, not the standardised variant.
Ideally they’d be split into separate tanks.
