No, Warthunder only has the Italian version of the cannon and its Italian turret, but that one has manual reloading. They’ve just added the turret and cannon developed by IMI of Israel. The turret has the automatic reloading system. Chilean tanks use their own tank turrets, so reloading them manually takes 5 seconds. The only Chilean vehicle with that israeli turret with the automatic reloading system is the Piranha 6x6, but it uses a late version, so aesthetically it’s somewhat different.
The Chilean M-50, M-51 and M41 tanks had a new FCS called MSZ-2 with laser rangefinder and night vision, but that is something else.
Other foreign vehicles with the IMI automatic reloading turret are the Marder and the BMP. Both use the late turret, as does the Chilean Piranha.
Based on one of the Jane’s excerpts above, it should be capable of targeting helis. This should mean target tracking and HE-VT if I understand it correctly.
So far, we need more sourcing for reports on the following:
Honestly it’d be nice if it stayed the way it is now. A 5. Second reload is fast enough to deal with enemy heavy and it’d give Israel an unique 7.7 sense Israel has a very unique 8.7. I think even tho it’s not realistic and could be better. It’d be a nice fit for Israel “low” tier
Whether this is 7.7 or 9.0, it’ll be in my 9.3 lineup regardless cause there are no light tanks above AMX-13 right now and 9.3 doesn’t have a light tank otherwise.
It’ll just impact my 8.0 lineup and potentially temporary 8.7 lineup.
You’re forgetting the amazing and outstanding AML-90, I love that thing so much I bring it to top tier. But fast little rat boi that can cosplay a literal bush given its size
Jokes aside I find it to be a quite adequate light tank, that also happens to be 7.7. It’s extremely fast, has a decent gun (especially for the BR, and since it’s HEAT-FS equipped you can take it up much higher), small and hard to spot while being easy to mask, and it’s a scouting machine, and it can be trolly against .50 cal sometimes especially headon. Ratiest rat boi and I love it to death, GE’d a crew slot and crew xp just so I could take it with me in every lineup lmao.
