  1. good find. One of the major lessons learned from op desert storm was numbers mean very little in modern warfare its the quality of the equipment And crew training/ competent leadership.
  2. showing my complete lack of knowledge on the subject. But could you simply import a model and integrate it in to the SB next update/grade What about the switchology aspect.etc
  3. Licenced production would be a good option for poland It also opens the possibility of export sales from european customers.
  4. To much being spent on aircraft carriers and F-35s I have to wonder why the UK invested so much on two new carriers and a submarine fleet. I release carriers have a prestige and project power. But at what cost. IMO, Carriers are really just very big very expensive high value targets. With a whole range of missiles designed to take them out at very long range the russian have a hypersonic missile with a range of 1000 miles That can be air launched from a SU-30. at ranges far beyond there detection by the carriers
  5. I came to a similar conclusion. Such a AFV would only have limited operational range due to the limited space for ammo and supplies Etc . To purposely design such a vehicle it would require a very long hull I think the Russian /Israeli concept of using Tank hulls to build very heavily armoured hulls is a better concept
  6. What do you guys think, Is it a good idea for a heavy armour platform to carry its own infantry. As good as modern APC/IFV.s are they do not have the armour protection of a tank. I can see advantages and disadvantages to the concept.

    Modern ADA

    Been doing some research on ADA lately. The rate of fire from these beasts is phenomenal with radar/computerised tracking systems. I would hate to be on the receiving end of a burst from one. So i have decided to start a topic listing some of the most advanced systems. I will start with the 2K22M1 (Tunguska-M)
  8. I did wonder if/why the MOD did not evaluate. The Desert warrior purchased by Kuwait after desert storm. stabilised M242 Bushmaster 25 mm chain gun Two TOW ATGM launchers Delco turret
  9. Ref no 6. Whats the alternative for the warrior. Would new builds or an off the self solution be cheaper.
  10. A few proposed versions of the CR-2 life extension program The new Ajax platform will come in a few different variants allegedly has very sophisticated sensors on the recon veriant The boxer APC/IFV. The much upgraded warrior IFV fitted with state of the art fire control and other sophisticated systems. Brimstone ATGM can be used by land and Air platforms. Lets just hope recent economic disturbances do not effect there introduction to the British army's land forces.
  11. Megaforce must be destroyed.
  12. If were going to have a megaforce we need an arch enemy for them say spectre or the ( mysterons who remembers them LoL)
  13. Really enjoy your videos guys, keep up the good work I always like them on youtube.
  14. And more importantly what about the ammo supply. The CR-2 biggest weakness was its120mm rifled barreled gun, The gun its self was good but the rifled ammo did not keep up with its contemporaries compared to the 120mm smoothbore ammo With multiple nations developing ammo for the gun. IMO the MOD wont risk it with a new 130mm unless there is a guarantee other major militaries will adopt it
  15. I have read many such cases of humanity in the face of inhumanity. From all side in WW2 One such story involved a German paratrooper being given a gurkhas blade by a dying gurkha who he showed mercy and aid too. In the battle for monte casino. the para survived the war and later gave the blade to his grandson.
  16. LoL I think the guys comments above about summed it up( DON'T )try to fight at night in the real world or the SB virtual world for that matter. Unless the later variants of the T-72 are modelled from the T-72 B2 onwards are equipped with thermals. If they do include the later B variants in the next update especially if they model the ATGM capability. it would be a game changer IMO anyway. PS, you could use the T-72M4 CZ: variant via the mission editor its thermal equipped but not playable I used to edit a platoon and replace one tank in the platoon with a T-72 B1 if you want to see what a more modern T-72 can do
  17. Trying to fight one to one in a T-72 you will always be at a disadvantage, But if you apply soviet doctrine (IE Massed and fast) With a rolling arty barrage you can negate there advantage some what. I used to be part of a VU that practiced using soviet equipment and tactical doctrine. And many times the unit was able to overwhelm are opfor with this tactic.
  18. Unfortunately engine generated smoke is not as effective as it once was due to thermal cameras on most modern Tanks and ATGM,s Its a bit of a doubled edged sword it can give you cover from older AFV,s and older ATGMs but it will also impair you vision especially in a T-72. Better to use terrain when possible. Also smoke dischargers are not much use unless there equipped with thermal defeating grenades.
  19. The round could have deflected of the armour Also the warrior is a very well armoured IFV.
  20. LoL. I know if you had done that to me i would have made you. A nice refreshing cup of coffee with my secret ingredient in it. LoL
