IrishHussar Posted February 21, 2008 Share Posted February 21, 2008 Just found some awesome pics of some Uparmoured Chally 2s. It looks like in addition to the toe armour, extra turret side armour and thicker armour on the sides it has also aquired a remote machine gun with independant thermals for the loader.http://www.jmcmtank.angelcities.com/images/mil/ch2toe1.jpghttp://www.jmcmtank.angelcities.com/images/mil/ch2toe2.jpg It also looks like its got extra mine protection undeneath and some kind of rig on the rear of the turret, maybe for ECCM is my guess.Irish 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IrishHussar Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 What are those things attached near the front of the tracks?Edit:Here is a pic of the backsideI think they could be part of an electronic suite which, if I am guessing right, is not for conventional warfare but more for use against IEDs and the like. The British Army gained massive experience in that direction during the troubles over in Northern Ireland so it would not suprise me if they have started to apapt certain hardwares for MBTs.Irish 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooker Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 The metal work is for detinating RPGs befor hiting the tank. We used chain link fence on our vechiels in Vietnam for the same reason. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
