What was the reasoning behind the choice of gun for the warrior?

What was the reasoning behind the choice of gun for the warrior? Why did they decide to go with a non stabilized main gun that fires from 3 round clips? The warrior had 12 ready rounds before the gunner has to manually load more clips. I compare that to something like the Bradley that has 75 AP ready and 220 HE ready and it just doesn’t make sense

    it works without electronics and the bradly doesnt. Also stabilization was not a priority as these things rarely shot on the move anyway. Both stupid reasons but they went with it. CTAS is overly complicated and shows the other end of the spectrum.

        "The vehicle’s computers are too slow and overheat in desert temperatures or freeze up at critical moments, such as “when large units are moving at high speeds simultaneously” and overwhelm its sensors."

        seems pretty important

            I mean if you are not trying to see the argument might as wel close your eyes. Stabilization can bring problems and it often does. If there are little redeming factors in the mission set then there are little returns having them (with 90's tech).

      wrong and wrong. A stabilizer is also valuable for shooting quickly after stopping rather than waiting for the gun to settle after a stop.

        why stop when you can shoot on the move? its a stupid argument. If you decide to stop with a stabelizer might as wel not have one...oh wait.

    Because fitting a decent number of people and moving faster than 40mph is important. Plus it's a far more powerful gun in a better protected chassis. Enjoy your ban.

        36mph on road is a joke, it's pathetic. Plus it's not like it's carrying a big armament, lots of troops or heavy protection, it's just slow.

        It wouldn't even be able to keep up with a challenger 2 lol

            Bradley doesn't cruise at it's top speed either moron lol Probably sub 30mph, humiliatingly slow.

          I’d rather be a little slow than not be able to fire on the move, change ammo types rapidly, or have a manually adjusted only turret. You lost this one

    Having +45 -10 elevation is far more important than a stabiliser as combat in Ukraine has shown. Bradley would be cucked in Urban operations - it was during Iraq.

      Yea if the Bradley ever is at the base of a skyscraper and needs to shoot directly up we will call in the warriors. Other than that elevation is fine on Bradley. Bradley’s replacement will have this ability to deal with drones

          Didn't Bradley lose to Warrior the only time they went head to head for orders?

          no, the warrior has never been exported. Kuwait bought some but demanded that the turret be removed completely and replaced with an LAV-turret. The Bradley has sold more units and to more countries. The most recent Bradley purchase was this year. Croatia ordered nearly 90 of them

              So what are you arguing. The premise of the thread is that the warriors turret is shit and the fact that none were ever exported without ripping out the turret supports that fact. The Bradley beat out the warrior when both were offered to Saudi Arabia.

                That Bradley is slow, carries too few troops, is poorly protected with a less lethal gun than Warrior while also being pretty ugly tbh. And no matter how many times you make this shitty thread, thats what the consensus will be. go shit yourself again, i'm bored to talking to a NEET.

                And get the Bradley still outperforms the warrior on paper, in combat, and in export sales. I’m sorry you are so upset by the lackluster specifications of the warrior but that simply isn’t my problem

              • 2 years ago
                Anonymous

                It only outperforms the warrior because the warrior has the gimped turret. Had the British designed the weapon systems better the warrior would be better than the Bradley

                bradley has better optics, stabilizer, more ammo

                Also has a top tier ATGM and a smaller logistics footprint
