What does /k/ think of the EBRC Jaguar and of it replacing the AMX-10RC and ERC90, the French military doctrine of speed and low weight over protection, and the French Army overall?
>>64213912sexiest vehicle on planet earth
>>6421391240mm gun is going in the right direction as it leaves more space in the turret, is big enough to disable an MBT by mobility or sensor kill, and small enough to defend itself from drones.
>>64213912Is burnt bronze the new hotness for .mil vehicles these days? I saw a couple M1083 Oshkosh FMTVs driving down the road painted in almost the same color.
>>64213923wouldn't they use the ATGM for MBT?but I'd like to see the launcher upgraded for kamikaze drones, because the French do combined arms at the platoon level it subdivides into an armor section with these and an 'investigation section' with VBL scout cars - them driving ahead to spot for drones the Jaguar launches would be neat
>>64213925France does a lot of operations in the Sahelhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Serval
i fucking love armored carsthey are so sex.I don't care if /k/ hates them they are so handy in the anti helicopter /recon role/ insersion2nd line vechicles don't get enough love t.b.h.
>>64213991the way france uses them they are very much frontline
Can't hit anything when firing on the move at the momentSo it's shit until that gets fixed
>>64214002Can the AMX-10RC or ERC-90?
>>64214031No, but it's not the 1970s any more and one of Jaguar's advertised advantages over those older vehicles was its advanced FCS that was supposed to allow such thingBritain's Ajax has had the same problem when firing the gun on the move at 90-degrees to the vehicle's direction of travel. They found it was because the GIAT barrels were flexing sideways, and they installed a barrel shroud to reduce it. However, Jaguar already has a shrouded barrel, so the cause in France's vehicles was unknown and they're struggling to resolve it.
J'aime la France, if only because they're the only western Euros to keep their military and supporting industry in a passable shape, even if they're severely retarded. Far as the Jaguar goes, looks a lot cooler than the ERC-90, but gayer than the AMX-10, so ehhh.
>>64214002>>64214101You're about a year out of date buddy, the half baked first batch issued for training purposes couldn't. There are literally videos of it firing on the move for validation purposes. It's still WIP with several steps toward FOC planned.
>>64213926Ideally but if they only have 1 missile then it's not unlikely they'll need to use the gun on an armoured target
>>64214202>gayer than the AMX-10as far as i'm aware that's a very high bar to pass for armored carsI can't think of one that can pass it
Doesnt this thing use the 40 mm compact telescoped ammo gun? It supposedly has very high barrel wear because the shell hits the rifling at high speed.
>>64213925it's because they can use this tone of colour for both desert and forest camo, they just have to add blakck and green or orange-ish to deploy to either
>>64213912Based and sexo.
>>64214338It has four missiles. Two ready for firing in the deployable pod.
I want it in War Thunder so bad I want it so bad it is the only thing that could convince me to play top tier again I want it so bad
>>64213912>What does /k/ think of the EBRC JaguarSinglehandedly capable of winning WWIIIDon't mind me posting the competitor who was dumped for being less protected, less armed, with a lesser range, barely as good at crossing all terrain, while also failing to instill fear in the enemy.
I think that all the vehicles of the scorpion program go hard as fuck
>>64213912It's bigger than I thought.
