clear when directly translated
Read, read, lead, lead, etc
in any case, they really wanted a new tank destroyer
Yeah
Coz TDs still have value in todays combat world, they're just not appreciated because MBTs do their job well enough in most cases
also wonder why they went with kannonenjagdpanzer when all the previous jagdpanzers aren't named as such
unless they needed the differentiation between the raketenjagdpanzer
That's literally why
I was typing it out and then you said it lol
then they learned to put ATGMs on tanks
and it became irrelevant...
Nah it's still used today lol
strange
the Jaguar and Jaguar 2 are still in service IIRC they're just modernized RJpzs
i guess they might as well keep them if they have them
cheaper than new IFVs
They're considerably lower profile than IFVs as well
Aside from the Weasel
but the Weasel doesn't have the fuel capacity and driving range that the Jaguar does
so
tbf the twin-gun design could have worked if they mounted them side by side
Give each one an autoloader revolver magazine
Could still have a decent range of fire
Although it's gonna get hot. Like REALLY hot. REALLY fast.
My tank looks pretty in the snow.
But does it actually run?
Looks like static display
And suddenly everyone becomes an expert on real estate law
Trying to gather up the parts to get it restored.
Nice I am hoping to pick up a armored vehicle some day just need to save my pennies.
BTR-80?
I would love a BTR but I am more into tracked vehicles I want a BMP or a tank from WW2.
very nice either way
Tracked vehicles are honestly shit
Unless you plan on running off road constantly
And even then you're probably better off with a wheeled APC
They're a LOT easier to maintain while having similar ground pressure.
