    Yes. Of course, it depends on the design of the autoloader. The CCVL/M8 is a good exemple. On purpose is to achieve compactness so naval design are not the best.

    Made my day.

    To permit manual reloading. With autoloader, the breach must be very close to the loading door. Like with the Type-90.

    Do you have link to Abrams or Leopard -2 firing on the move tests ? Real tests.
  5. Serge
    Leclerc was designed to achieve fire on the move at hight speed, whatever the target is doing. The « who knows » is nonsense. This has been proved everyday for more than 20 years. Both Leopard-2 and Abrams can’t fire like a Leclerc.
  6. Serge
    Good mobility is of no interest if you can’t fire on the move.
  7. Serge
    Laser cut ?

    This is a Leclerc turret on a Leopard -2. Trials on the firing range were good. The French 140mm is very different but is said to be proposed for the MGCS.

    Leclerc turret. Trials were good

    This is a KNDS brand. Nexter already communicated about AFV they will showcase at EuroSatory (TITUS with UGV kit, Jaguar....). Shareholders were calling for a rapid common project between Nexter and KMW. Here it is.

    You have plenty of countries with archipelagos, wetlands, large deltas. They don’t call for a very expensive EFV like solution

    It already have a turret But, maybe, there is a big surprise in the design.

    Each munition’s got its proper point to be destroyed.
  17. Serge
    When I was tank commander I had special grenade to destroy such a thing. Even the tank by itself.
  18. Serge
    So, a loader’s hatch less tank, put a tube on the loader side to carry a misfired ammo. And the best : the tube cover the turret roof (in case of explosion...) to threaten episcope and the tank commander by ricochet. Why not.
  19. Serge
    The cost.

    It was designed with protection in mind but it’s not useful for family of vehicles development. More basic shapes are far better.

    They are shy.
  24. Serge
    It can be useful after light damage on the front to keep moving. The PASEO sight. Yes. He didn’t quote ECLIPSE but BARRAGE. The turret is « ready for - not fitted with ». He quotes DIAMAN.

    I don’t know companies uninterested in producing for customers. I may be wrong but...
