And whats the difference i thought they were all based of the one thats in Leopard
I have spaded the HMS Orion now. Final verdict isn’t stellar but certainly not terrible. Best BB in the rank yes, BR for BR colossus is a better ship IMO. But alternatively, you are better than Dreadnought.
Some issues are the crew drain.
-
You have incredibly low protection for the secondaries, as they are casemate mounted they can be HE spammed by just about anything.
-
Another issue is the engines. They are tall and as a result, not hidden under the waterline such as on German dreadnoughts and the Marlborough, this means high penetration guns at the same BR can pen through the belt and absolutely will wipe out 2-3 of your engine blocks in one salvo, which absolutely destroys your crew.
-
Next part of this is the elevated rear superstructure, it is constantly being set on fire by even something as small as Moffett HE, and if you do not put this out promptly, it can spread to the magazines or secondary magazines and detonate them, didn’t happen to me luckily as fires are auto extinguished.
Next issue would be the gun
- You end up with the lowest penetration possible. In fact the Marlborough’s tier 1 round is better than your APC which makes no sense because the Marlboroughs first round was in service before Orion was decommissioned in 1922 yet Orion does not get the MK.IVa Greenboy rounds which were an alternative to heavier rounds that she was incompatible with.
Next is the vulnerable turrets, they’re easy to knock out simply put, you do not have enough pen to be effective past medium range, but closer than medium range you can not only have your belt penned, but also your turrets.

I’m going to be frank, there’s not much reason why it is 6.7, you get marginally more penetration than something such as SMS Kaiser at 6.3 (or any of the other German BB’s), with a thinner belt, no turtleback behind that belt such as these do (which is bugged as APC doesn’t cause flooding which is the only way to eliminate turtlebacked ships). You also have a drastically lower DPM affected even more by your poor survivability (less crew= slower reload).
For those naval connoisseurs i’d be interested to hear your respective takes.

As a singaporean, if they ever add any singaporean vehicle or sub tech tree i say they should put it in israel since Singapore and israel relation are super close (probably more close than Chile) like the Singapore military is literally modeled of the israel defence force because the Israeli basically help to plan and make Singapore military.

I see maybe that would be better
It’s a compact design made by Swiss Ruag, ment to take up the same space as a 105.
The German 120 is made by Rheinmetall and is L44 or L55 while the RUAG one is L50.

I need help, Which centurion is this mockup based on?
From the look of the gun i think it can be narrowed down to one with the 84mm ill have to look further
This is not a centurion (there are few rollers), and not a Vickers, not a Caernarvon (there are too many rollers). The cannon with a protective casing of the gun is really a Soviet 125mm.
The investigation is ongoing but…
I already reguest it

Apparently it is a centurion. The centurion MMWR, a test platform later converted to an OPFOR tank for exercises.
Apparently it is in the bovington tank museum.

From what i was able to find, it is a Centurion that underwent DEEP modifications, not the vic 7
Hull is a mix of Centurion and FV4202 prototype
