    I don’t see how that makes it necessary to post every minor development in weapons industry to this community. And I find it especially weird that it is so often an account from a canadian instance posting these news.

      I would not describe the Challenger 3 as a minor development? I would rather say it is one of the larger developments?

        Challenger 3 is just an upgraded Challenger 2. For the most part is just integrates subsystems already in use in other European systems like Leopard 2 and Puma(Rheinmetall is heavily involved, so it is a lot of German stuff) and puts them into the Challenger 2. The big one is the new gun(same as Leopard 2 and Abrams).
