Ukrainian engineer: so how much ERA do you want on your leopard?.
Ukrainian tankers: yes!

is it me or does that look thicker than K1?, also I wonder if it’s a normal Leo 1 turret or the blocky version under all that ERA, just going off the ERA placement I’m thinking it’s probably the blocky style
It’s predominantly K-1 with a special plate of Nizh-1M on the UFP. At least that’s what the expectation is, Nizh-1M is either fitted to K-1 blocks or has its own block.

Missed out the STRV 122
A Ukrainian ZSU-23-4M3 of the 36th Marine Brigade. The ZSU-23-4 has also underwent local upgrades which can be seen below and in early parts of this post.
This version is known as the ZSU-23-4M-A1 ‘Rokach’ which features a new RADAR, integration of Igla missiles, thermals, and a laser rangefinder. The ZSU-23-4M-A1 is in Ukrainian service albeit in limited numbers. The vehicle typically operates with its optical channels to prevent its RADAR signature from being localized. This vehicle would offer greater performance than the ZSU-23-4M4 in-game as it’s equipped with additional features that would put it at BR 9.7-10.0.

It’s gonna be so horrible at that BR
Yeah it’s just better than the one in-game with a lot of features. At least 9.7.
i wouldnt give it even a 0.3 BR higher, Shilka is just that horrible and new radar and IRST wont impact horrible range of autocannon, Iglas will still atruggle to lock onto helicopters for minutes long.
Seeing it at same BR as Gepard 1A2 that has everything better than it would be hilarious.
While I agree on it being high for a Shilka…unfortunately there’s no way it couldn’t be. Thermals, a new RADAR, and Laser Rangefinder would make it a level higher. In gaijin’s eyes
We already had/have vehicles straight up better sit at same BR, I dont see how this must be an exception if it doesnt actually improve anything significant.
It does though, a Laser Rangefinder alone is a large impact on performance, you’ll be able to accurately burst fire light vehicles across the map and engage helicopters a lot better. 3rd-generation thermals, IRST, and a 360-degree high performance RADAR with IFF does impact the vehicle’s capability quite a bit too. It’s superior to the M4 variant electronically, firepower is the same.
I wouldnt want to be vehicle hunting in Shilka, its no Gepard with insanely hitting APHE. Laser rangefinder wont do much
Only thing mattering, but even then it’s not so important due to radar already being better than thermals even in stock Shilka configuration.
Wouldnt help to improve the range, range is locked by poor autocannon’s caliber.
Shilka’s stock radar is 360°, if you can press more than just W and left click.
So only significant changes is thermal you dont really need and faster scan radar
Doesnt solve any of abysmal issues with low Shilka’s M4 firepower against air amd ground targets.
So I dont see how it should be same BR as Gepard 1A2 or highee.
