    The turreted version was filmed sounding distinctively better:

    An interesting thing is that there is an iron vision-esque sensor cluster sitting over the left shoulder of the driver on the IFV.

    David Moyes reacted to Alzoc in French flair   
    Printscreen of the second video in the thread (+ other screen of the Caesar management system) :

     
    @BeerSeem like the shells they are using are of French origin.
     
    For the fuzes I can guess that "FRAPPE FR" stands for impact fuze (Fr) while "RALECF3 FR" stands for Radioélectrique F3 (probably programmable fuze for airburst/delayed/proximity fuze?).
     
    As for the shells they are the OEF4 and OEF1. The OE (Obus Explosif) F4 is apparently the LU211 in Nexter's catalogue with a range of 40 km (base bleed) when fired from an L52. As for the OEF1, my guess is that it is the LU107 which is a derivative of the US M107 with a slightly improved range (22 km claimed) and that can be fired from L52 gun using a reduced propellant charge.
     
    So all the range to the target claimed around 20 km could be the result of using the LU 107 which caps out around this range.
     
    As for TCM, it stands for Top Charge Module.
     
    In the second video, in the status screen, on the gun side (right) the "Trajectory correction" can be seen in red, which could mean that the Ukrainians didn't get guided shells or SPACIDO compatibles ones.
     
    If anyone can understand what the guy is saying that would help^^

    They wasted 6 years on this.
    Everyone knew Day 1 that JLTV could never be accepted by MoD or Government but the Army kept pushing.

    I posted this a year ago:

    David Moyes reacted to Żółć in Polish Armoured Vehicles   
    Soooo... Polish Armaments Group just signed a deal for the production of a new tank destroyer armed with Brimstone missiles. Thus Poland becomes the fifth customer for the missile, and the second one (after Ukrain) to field it in a ground launch version. It will look similar to the one on the graphic, although it is meant to use a different chassis. 
     and here is the new chassis 
    Here is the link for the official statement about the establishment of a consortium responsible for the production of said tank destroyer, and here is a link to the statement talking about cooperation with MBDA and the usage of the Brimstone missile.
    And what is even more interesting is that according to the MBDA press release, Brimstone missiles are going to be produced (under licence?) in Poland.
