Eh, in the beginning British stuff was pretty shit on account of fitting piddly guns. Lot of the designs Britain came up with would have been excellent if they put both a gun and an engine in it, instead of picking one or the other.

Churchill was alright at a few things, abysmal at others. The upgrades black prince brought were incredibly lacking on account of the whole having half an engine in it. I like the black prince, but it was a bit of a daft idea to try and make it without a real engine.

I’m British .I own a Volkswagen : ) .If had to fight in WW2 and could choose my ride it would be a Sherman everytime.

I knew you were a yank as soon as you said “y’all” which is why I’m calling you a Teaboo. and if the car you own is actually British-made and not Indian or Chinese in a British skinsuit I hope you kept the receipt.

british tanks got most things right, its just the one detail they didn’t was catastrophic. Churchill was a good infantry tank but hopeless against tanks

nah hes driving a Corsa B thinking it is the pinnacle of britbongery

Well its American built, But with entirely British Engineering.

Lincoln LS, a 300hp Jaguar with a American body.

Id have bought a full on Jag, But this thing was $1000 and i love it with every fibre of my being.

Hey, if it was introduced earlier, the 6 pounder might not have been the worst thing on the planet. The churchills are my favourite series of tanks of the time, but they weren’t exactly good at doing anything but getting shot at and climbing hills. Britain’s come a long way since the stuff they’ve put out in that era to having some of the more effective heavy armour of the competition tho.

If you keep encouraging the yank to pick up the shovel, I doubt we’ll ever see them through the hole they dig for themself.

Centurion is a cool platform, aye. But it doesn’t have the look of a chonk tank. Churchill does.

If only that look came with a cannon.

Most of the Ford Jags rotted under the sills like good old UK cars of old and the diesels were terrible. V6 Petrol was OK .

Its no surprise we lost our car industry.A bit off topic mind.

What we do well is invent tech.LED,NVG,Radar etc etc then we give it away to the Yanks lol .The UK invented so much that every other nation claim.We had the RSRE works near where I live now and we invented so much there after WW2. It became Connetic once they privatized it. Its a housing estate now…
They did Chobham armour etc

Eh, armour of the Brits at present is amongst the best in the world if not the best. Specifically chally is one the best for doctrine designs, and one of the most survivable for the crew. You lot did eventually work out what you were doing. Only took the better part of a century.

AJAX might be good, if incredibly overpriced.

Does the “yall” include me?
Just in case, the BP is my most played vehicle… :)

Quite inaccurate and bloody inconsistent output. That shot is rather a lottery…
