but who knows it could change
What I don’t understand is why Sweden got dm53 for all strv 122s. They actually use Israeli 120mm ammunition irl.

Ive heard enough, 3 more Abrams to China 2 to the UK and one to Russia just because!
Apparently, the Leopard 2A8 is only getting DM53. That really killed my excitement. At least give it DM73!

So basically 2a7 with trophy? Got it.
Idk what you guys all expected. The 2A7V is already at the max br, and modeling the 2A8 to be significantly better would just compress top tier right after br decompression
I get the balance concern. I was just hoping for a firepower upgrade too. If DM73 warrants a higher BR, I’m fine with that.
DM73 would only be like 10mm more penetration? its not all to big.
The next big thing would be that the ammunition turns inert, so no more exploding
Indeed. But some nations always get the candy. Swedish comm is well connected I suppose. Its interesting to see how some get stuff from all around the world via subtrees and strange decisionmakting, while certain donor nations rarely get something from abroad.
idk the point here if you are referring to all the soviet stuff and shit, as germany operated all of that…
Cant you see the swiss line?
a subTT? thats air only rn?
So they do get vehicle from abroad…
he said “rarely” not that they get nothing, its 8 swiss vehicles total…
4 Swiss jets no one was asking for are what I referred to be ‘rarely’.
When was the last time Gajin simplly said here…this shell or missile can be theoretically used with Ger system, so here you get it. Here’s your e.g. US dart or proxy shell for Rheinmetall 120mm gun? Similar for German jets, which could theoretically fire alot ordnance from GB, US etc. But it almost never happens. While othere get it easily from Germany.

L2A8 might let you down

Maybe they should postphone the German Leopard. The rollout version is definetly not supposed to be the service model. Just using the “out of factory” rollout ceremony A8 is really poor. Then lets just wait until its transfered to the tank units. Complete with new ammunition DM83, LWS, rumored anto drone stuff, MG etc.

The DM83 will easily pierce Russian vehicles, don’t even think about it. Giving Germany the DM63 to improve ballistic performance is still possible though.
