Playable Challenger-2 is coming!
News from SBP.
A compromise - censorship requirements made them deciding against modelling a dedicated 3D interior, but the fire control system they claim to be precise - and typical British. Quote:

Maybe it gets updated with the coming release, too.

Are you sure? I thought the CR2 has always had the L30?
The two part ammunition prevents burying the Sabot round into the propellant case as in the Rheinmetall gun, and the stowage limits the size of the projectile - the L27 is thus apparently only a bit larger than the 1980s M829, and L23/Jericho is considerably smaller. Similar considerations that limit the performance of "Soviet" 125mm rounds to their lower values. Something like M829A3 is in a totally different class. |

I noticed it due to comments made by Ssnake. They were surprised to see the Challenger being so weak in gunning, but that they were sure of their numbers, also that they had modelled the first version of its gun. Current models are equipped with a stronger one. Find the thread in the steelbeasts forum somewhere.

New SBP upgrade, amongst other content including the playable Chally2, is planned for release in Q4 2011.
As always, timetables given by eSim should be understood to have been given with an element of humour. Means: the word to watch out for is "planned".
