[@chiefturion7134]

They said the TTD is representing Britain, yes they could have been more thorough with the introduction and say, "The South African TTD will represent Britain." How I see it is they probably didn't bother with specifics since they assume anyone watching these videos plays the game and is aware the TTD is a South African mbt

I hate to tell you...as someone who was in the Cav for half my career, The Bradley CFV's function is to scout for the enemy target, fix them in place and let the Abrams move up and destroy. Its called the Hunter/Killer team concept. Their role is NOT to support but to move forward. Once they ID the target and the Abrams moves up, then and only then are they to fall back so that they dont get destroyed. Whenever they are in a Troop setup they move forward of the tanks and conduct a screenline defense and are out there all night observing the battlefield for enemy movement. If they can strike the tank safely they will engage. if its a small force they notify the rest of the unit so that they leave the hide position and join the scouts and engage on contact. Ive been in both the Cav and Armor Battalions, have done both roles in support of the scouts and Infantry. There has never been a time in my 18 years where a scout supports a tank from the rear. scouts lead the front since they are our "eyes and ears". Its doctrine....unless they changed the tactics in the doctrine which have yet to see publication for it....If Im not mistaken the bradley is also having a firepower upgrade soon. the 25MM bushmaster gun is being upgraded to a 30MM gun on a M2A3 Turret.

I would like to address an issue regarding the Ratel 90. In RB a fully upgraded Ratel 90 struggles to move at speeds of over 30km\h on grass, this is highly unrealistic as according to South African National Museum of Military History the Ratel 90 was able to comfortably move at a speed of 50km\h on rough terrain ( the comfort is referring to the crew's comfort when driving not the vehicle's performance capabilities as Ratel 90 was would move at speeds of 60-70km\h on rough terrain when in combat subsequently disregarding the crew's comfort as to not get killed ).

Can you add these to war thunder 1.make it easier to land RB. Reason: I can't land an aircraft in one piece. 2.allow Golden eagles easier to get 3.Can you get more realistic physics like the physics in IL2 Sturmovik 4.allow any vehicle to be test drive or flight even though it's rank 5 even your still in rank 1 5. allow implemented custom camouflages in-game 6.A crossout style constructing combat vehicles like when you destroy an enemy aircraft you get parts of that aircraft to build a custom aircraft 7.More countries 8.More vehicles Example: WW1 Biplanes, Modern day aircraft like the F-22, F-35, A10 Warthog & B-52 9.More Damageable Vehicles like an entire portion of a tank can be blown up revealing portions of the tank 10.More animations such as PanzerJager 1 loader actually loading the gun 11 Realistic teams such as if you choose any allied countries your teammates are vehicles from allied nations and the enemies are vehicles from axis nations and vise versa
