Column of Indonesian Leo2A4s in formation during preparation for the TNIAD Fair starting tomorrow & for the Armed Forces Anniversary on the 5th of October next month

During the Fair the P8 Light Tank will be showcased so ill try to find some images of it once the event is open proper.

Also slightly interesting, the 2RI’s camo is slightly different to the 2A4+ with it having a bit more of the tan coloring near the roof and rear compared to the mostly green and dark grey of the 2A4+

My June suggestion is still just gathering cobwebs in pending rn, highly doubt itll be processed soon.

My Cobra IFV one was suggested in early June and has only been approved last week, a full three months later 😅

Looks like Malaysia might look at some new toys:

The image also clearly shows the difference of the AC compartment near the right rear side of the hull

Marder 3 has a new camo with a lighter tone of the brown (seems to be the same shade used in the new Leo2RI camo)

Here’s a comparison between the Leo2A4+ & Leo2RI


Lines to make it easier to see the differences

Basically the entire right hand corner of the hull is different, additionally the Sideskirts is also not the same. The stowage box on the rear of the turret of the 2RI is also noticable larger compared to the 2A4

Atakas was probably omitted due to balancing for the BR, which is fair enough, but why is the FFAR not in-game? its not like itll be anything groundbreaking its just 24 70mm rockets, but its still a unique thing to add to an otherwise bare bones standard C&P heli. So sad.

I don’t get why they want the BR to be 9.7 though, why do that when we have 2 9.3s and a 9.7 already? There’s just a massive gap waiting to be filled between 9.7 and 11.7

The ID Apache can help around there, its just I think the AH-64E, being a shiny new toy is released only for the Americans first and the rest of the countries will follow at a later date

Mi-35 just doesnt have advanced enough optics etc to compete around that BR unfortunately

NOOOOOOOOOOO! NOT MY BALNIG!
