What? Why nerf turret rotation speed when its accurate to real life? They already nerfed the reload speed, should be like around the 4 to 4.5sec mark. But they nerfed it ages ago.
The C2 does not have a turret basket. Theres multiple images.
it’s on purpose mate,to neff leopard and m1.Otherwise why other vehicle still Not getting their turrent basket after so many update?

I believe the reason the Challenger 2 doesn’t have a turret basket is because when they were thinking about the C2 in the 90s, the UK MOD testes the Abrams. They stated the Abrams has an 80% fire risk if hit from the side due to all the Hydraulics that runs through and around the turret basket, additionally the chances of the tank being able to fight back would be lower.
From what i know, This is the reason the C2 uses an electricity operated revolving floor where the Charge Bins, Spall Liners, seats and everything else effectively make up the walls. It just turns in accordance with the turret.
So effectively, the basket is in the hull, just not a basket. Imagine a big circular floor, the walls are made of the charge bins, seat, spall liners, boxes, railings. We can see from images of Chieftain theres a big ring that circles around the top if the hull roughly at the top level of the charge bins. I believe the electrics and hydraulics run under the floor towards the back of the hull between the charge bins and engine’s, this is just guessing from looking at chieftain and 1 or 2 pics of C1. Theres not much evidence to suggest the proper layout or how it actually is for C2.
Personally i dont see this changing. With the constant nerfs that seem to hit western countries and the constant buffs thats hit either russia or china i dont see them implementing anything that would improve the situation.

They can only be applied to tanks that have them.
@Grossaaaa
The autoloader module is a nerf to T-series tanks. not a buff.
Autoloader cannot stop rounds from hitting ammo and cooking off the tank.
@CHARM_3
Powered turret traverse can be disabled if hull present autoloaders, rotating floors, or baskets are damaged, and it’d be fine.

Adding Pantsir equivalents to all tech trees would’ve kept IR AGM CAS OP.
I find it unfortunate that Stona closed two of the discussions without giving much of any reason. As well, it’s unfortunate that Gaijin decided to temporarily disable the FCS on eastern tanks until more get them, but hasn’t done so for the Abrams or Leo. (To my knowledge, this still hasn’t changed months later either). These systems should only be applied once all top-tier nations are affected.

I was more talking about if the turret floor gets damaged as a way to implement a turret basket like system bc it doesn’t have one
Yeah, I am not fully sure and did just assume they went with the same system as the chally 1, but I wasn’t sure bc I have heard some people say it does have one. Those people being former tankers, but they might not know how it exactly works
Could you share the source for that? It sounds like an interesting read.
Yh but we have no evidence of it. We cant just imagine oe guess.

So most tanks at top tier do, the chally 2 is the exception so I understand if it doesn’t get one.
gaijin just cant admit that western systems are superior in any way and eastern stuff need big buffs to be even comparable to western ones.

Leclercs also lack turret baskets but I know you won’t cry about it because it doesn’t fit your narrative.

i dont have one but hearing the french the leclercs miss a lot more than just a basket
You sure do.
uhh… no i dont have a leclerk
I’d like the baskets removed/reduced massively in size so they’re comparable with other tanks, like before.
