Default Re: MBT's

APPARENTLY there are 2 versions of this assault vehicle...... One with a 152mm cannon and one with a 125

This MAY be the 125 version. The turret is smaller than the previous one but it has more things hung off of it ( the bright green bits



On one link the point was made that creating 125mm version would be simpler as there is already a 125mm carousel auto-loader whereas there isn't for 152

And then there is this



which aledgedly shows the 125 mm version as a completed test vehicle

and this



I have not attempted an icon of this yet

Fallout Re: MBT's

Still learning on what turned into more of a new "rig" than in an updated one.

Anyway some MBT news out there concerning the Ukrainian M1A1 tanks.

It turns out I was right about the configuration being unchanged from what Australia got from us.

I'll just provide the bullets from the ref. below.

1. "Fortunately for Ukraine, the tanks eventually arrived from Australia, underwent servicing, and are now being put into service with the 425th Assault Regiment."

2. "The new batch of formerly Australian tanks may fare better than the American-supplied tanks from two years ago."

3. "The armored vehicles have received the M1A1 AIM SA upgrade, which includes a digital fire control system, thermal imaging capabilities, and an enhanced communications suite. The MBT's gas turbine engines were also reconfigured, allowing for the use of standard diesel fuel rather than the JP-8 aviation kerosene typically employed by the US military." (Speaks to their expertise in building excellent tank engines.).

4. "The tanks were also updated with an armor package that does not contain depleted uranium (That should be a given for everyone by now.)"
https://united24media.com/latest-new...regiment-11173


5. "There is speculation that the tanks could also receive anti-drone protection such as cage or grid systems, while it is likely they will receive electronic warfare (EW) equipment to counter drones."
(There is plenty out there to support all of the above already being put on their tanks to include Drone EW systems.)

Fallout Re: MBT's

The following was an issue about 4-5 months ago I tried to describe. I just came across the following video which does a better job because you can literally see what how this system works.

I feel that what this video shows is not the full capability of this system. It does show a lot but why would this video be on the net if there isn't more to it?

I was also very impressed by the ROF at 12-14 RPM with an experienced crew. This 120mm is a RUAG MG and can shoot any 120mm round fielded now and on the design boards now.
This is what we need for our paras.

I'm NOT smart enough to change details on equipment, I'm requesting someone please to modify a CV-90 and add EW-20 to see if a couple of tanks can see it and shoot at it. This would require the CV-90 not to shoot. This was a thought Don suggested at the time.

Request 3 players for this exercise in both open and light cover with no woods as that is some protection until it shoots if in AMBUSH mode.

As a final thought, if for some reason this works keep your tanks advancing until they make contact as we would need to know what the ranges were.

Please post results in this Thread.

You are. It's simple
  • Pick the unit you want to change
  • Press Copy to paste Buffer ( top row of MBT MOBHACK under "HELP"
  • The first slot of the copy/paste Dialogue will appear---PRESS OK
  • GOTO an unused slot and click on the Copy to paste Buffer again to paste that unit into the new slot
  • Press the check mark along the top row and you will have cut and pasted a unit to the game
  • MAIN MBT screen--Change the name of the unit to TEST ( you will want to delete it when you are done and TEST makes it easy to find) then press the check mark again to save it
  • On the main MBT MOBHACK screen , between SWIM and RADIO is EW
  • Change EW to 20 and press the check mark again to save it
  • If you do not want the TEST unit to fire any of it's weapons go to your new TEST unit and change all the weapons to ZERO and it will not fire
  • PRESS THE LOAD/ SAVE TAB then when the main screen with the nations appear press SAVE ( bottom right)

Simple Ja?

You are done
Now test

BUT....... to answer your question YES they can be seen with EW 20
