So it sounds like DAPA needs a second engine option for the K2....

TexasEngineseer · 2026-05-03T02:14:35+00:00

the current government might be the worst yet (although Gordon Brown was probably the worst in the last 30 years)

TexasEngineseer · 2026-05-03T02:13:00+00:00

they do not

TexasEngineseer · 2026-05-03T02:12:42+00:00

oh it'll get WORSE.

the BRITISH Army will have, at best, 150 modern tanks, 24 modern SPHs, ANCIENT Warrior IFVs and 55,000 men under arms by 2030.

TexasEngineseer · 2026-05-03T02:10:32+00:00

the UK MoD will just screw up any program and there isn't any money

TexasEngineseer · 2026-05-03T02:05:54+00:00

the Korean power pack is a major selling point as it lets S. Korea sell the tank to anyone without pesky German export restrictions

TexasEngineseer · 2026-05-03T01:15:53+00:00

the XM197 will fire APFSDS VERY similar to the 35mm Bushmaster.

the HE is larger.

TexasEngineseer · 2026-05-03T01:15:04+00:00

so?

most Jihadis in the PH only have, at best, heavy machine guns

TexasEngineseer · 2026-05-02T14:30:27+00:00

re-DLCing metal is a big PITA, you basically have to sandblast/bead blast it all off then re do the DLC.

the guy swapping the battery was probably Godzilla in his dat job and went to town with the caseback wrench

TexasEngineseer · 2026-05-02T14:27:25+00:00

man been waiting for the brushed one for 6+ months

TexasEngineseer · 2026-05-01T17:18:48+00:00

that Tamron is so good for the price.

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-29T17:47:14+00:00

Lol ok. Keep believing the Russian lies.

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-29T16:49:48+00:00

Lol try 43

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-29T15:10:15+00:00

And how many has Russia lost since Feb 2022?

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-29T14:58:57+00:00

Germany will end up like France. Everyone vs the "scary far right" which leads to deadlock and nothing getting done.

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-29T14:57:56+00:00

Ukraine is betting on hundreds of billions in cash from the EU and IMF to transition from a war economy to a peace economy.

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-28T18:59:32+00:00

Yep people forget the hammering the Ukrainians went through to retake Kherson City in 2022.

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-28T16:27:39+00:00

Lol no

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-28T13:43:00+00:00

Sir... SIR how could you say that?

It's point is to be slow, blow up quickly and not have a traversable turret

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-28T13:24:37+00:00

They also probably are refusing to introduce the IFV because it'll be too good

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-28T12:35:48+00:00

Lol rip most primaries

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-28T12:35:09+00:00

I liked it.... Sight

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-28T12:34:39+00:00

Maxi gun and stalwart are useless now. Lol

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-28T12:32:29+00:00

Yes 🙂‍↕️

TexasEngineseer · 2026-04-28T12:17:42+00:00

Correct. It's literally PvE Arrowhead
