iirc no photos exist publically, but it’s confirmed to have happened, it’d probably require a trip to the national archives.

Quote from Parliment

T80U Tank

Dr. David Clark : To ask the Secretary of State for Defence if he will make a statement on his Department’s receipt of a tank from Russia for research purposes.

Mr. Aitken : In 1992 a Russian T80U tank was imported for defence research and development purposes.

Mr. Menzies Campbell : To ask the Secretary of State for Defence whether any department of his Ministry has taken delivery of a T80U main battle tank.

Mr. Aitken : Yes. A Russian T80U tank was imported for defence research and development purposes.

Thoughts on the placement and size of the emblems for this skin I'm working on?

And should I include a regular SADF logo?

I can never understand whether he’s pro or anti Challenger 2.

Loadout option for the Spitfires?

I unlocked the European camouflage for one of my favorite tanks for free via the Pages of History crates - it’s a shame all of Britains camos get locked behind rng/paywall when nearly all of Germany and Americas camos can be unlocked by playing

John_Sneeeeeeeew · February 27, 2025, 12:12am

Very real, actual pisstake that our best camo’s are behind paywalls

EddieVanHalo-live · February 27, 2025, 12:34am

This is the big one that is missing.

Tim_TeaDrinker · March 15, 2025, 2:38pm

Does anyone even have information about this?

Master_Teaz · March 15, 2025, 2:48pm

IIRC its the Warrior 105, It’d probably behave similarly to the TAM

Tim_TeaDrinker · March 15, 2025, 3:43pm

Well)) i see its 105mm but any specific data?

The sky looked quite beautiful on American Desert today - I took some glamour shots of my Challys. Hope you guys will enjoy them as much as I did : ) I especially like the 2nd one.

(Sorry if the quality is a bit poor. Had to take these photos by hand since I play on console).

Played a classic old zombie game which has London as background, developed by the french a few days ago.

The ending was a boring classic.
The protagonist escapes London, Then RAF comes, bombs and burns London to the ground right after the escape.

Just wondering which plane was in that ending cutscene. :/

Phantom? The tail is too big.
Tonka? no variable wing.
Jaguar? Harrier? Hawk…??
Nah… looks similar to nothing.

I am just damn confused about them.
AFAIK, I think there is no plane shaped like that in the RAF arsenal.

I feel a little stupid thinking about what that is as long as it would be just another silly fictional plane though.
But it keeps bothering me. :|

Ehhh… damn, is this look like a modified F1C which is pretending to be Tonka?
