120mm B1 Centauro wheeled tank destroyer - Live Fire Trials

[@craigross341]

Imagine something like this with a V-shaped hull and some anti-RPG cages in an environment like Afghanistan. In asymetric warfare, where you can reasonably ignore the possibility of facing main battle tanks with skilled crews, then this would be the kit.

They actually made version with add on romor armor with era packages when they went to somalia.

[@baronebianco]

💥💥 excellent armament with 120 mm gun, shame about the light armor but in case of war it would probably mount additional plates

[@seoulkidd1]

ill take that to war

[@dominicviner6619]

Yeah you van make good use with it. Good transport. Decent offense. Can scout too if need. That chasis is great. Can put a aaa gun on it. Mortor. And so on and so forth. Good for urban or hilly areas

A milennia better than the M1128. Doesn't shake like someone drinking a 6 pack while firing.

[@Ezekiel903]

shaking diminish the forces that get transferred to all other components! study before comment!

[@dominicviner6619]

War thunders needs a 9.7 romor with 120mm. And improved armor. Shiiiit I'm sure the last version made can be a 10.0

[@emmanuel.c1888]

war thunder need B2 Centauro 😉

This is fine in warthunder at 10.3 but yes need the B2 at 10.7.

Whats the point? Just use a regular tank.

[@calogerohuygens4430]

Matthew Smith the point is that centauro is not a tank. Precisely It is a wheeled tank destroyer. His primary roles are escorting, defence and reconnaisance. A tank primary role is Attack.

[@craigross341]

Much heavier, much more expensive, much greater drain on the supply chain - especially fuel - and tracks just aren't made for long distances. I think there's a lot of merit in wheeled armoured vehicles.

@Legio XXI Rapax I don't think point 3 is entirely valid. tanks are stilll a necessity, if you remove tanks, the enemy will exploid that. and weeled vehicle like this could be knocked out by a RPG, or even a low tech towed AT gun or auto cannon. while mobility is the future, armor will always be necessary to break trough enemy lines.

[@Cheezymuffin.]

@Legio XXI Rapax Ah I see, sorry, I read your comment and thought you meant that tanks where completely obsolete. :)
