Normal Iranian Scorpion without night scope:









Tosan tank, in a few different configs:















It is also worth noting that like the version of the Scorpion sold the Iran (and Jordan in its orignal config) that didn't have a night sight is also how our one is ingame for the MEC:





Where the British Version in the Falklands has its night sight (to the right of its cannon):





Its also worth noting that the British no longer have the Scorpion, they where sold off long ago and we only the Scimitar which is why you don't see the British Scorpion on any modern maps.





But yes, we really should change the HUD to say "HESH" round in place of the "APSD" and also the coding of the round to make it do less damage vs strong armour, more damage vs light armour and also better vs. infantry and buildings but a little low on the priority list, but will add it to our to do list.

We did consider making this for the MEC but decided that a fully automatic 30mm version, with 4x AT missiles was a little too much for a vehicle as small as this

It will be possible to land a lynx on your deck ?

And the radar will work? It can be a valuable tool for cooperation and guidance to the CAS / jet squad The frigate will be multi- manned ? I find incredible the idea of ​​three or more people using a frigate systems in PR !And received all his AA capacity ?

It will also be possible to take off and land the Lynx on the flight deck, shot during testing of that in an early version quite a few months ago:





and how the radar will work you will have to wait and see as we are trying out lots of ideas on it and we have yet to see what works well gameplay wise and may not have any kind of radar system if nothing works out well. The MEC Scorpion is actually based on the Iranian version since they have 80 of them and they are now producing their own version of the FV101 Scorpion called the "Tosan tank" which is more or less exactly the same as the orignal Scorpion that was sold to them, without night scope, other than they also feature a few different versions of it with other turrets along with the normal 76mm turret and a supposed 90mm turret version (can't confirm it), as well as possibly a 30mm version too.Normal Iranian Scorpion without night scope:Tosan tank, in a few different configs:It is also worth noting that like the version of the Scorpion sold the Iran (and Jordan in its orignal config) that didn't have a night sight is also how our one is ingame for the MEC:Where the British Version in the Falklands has its night sight (to the right of its cannon):Its also worth noting that the British no longer have the Scorpion, they where sold off long ago and we only the Scimitar which is why you don't see the British Scorpion on any modern maps.But yes, we really should change the HUD to say "HESH" round in place of the "APSD" and also the coding of the round to make it do less damage vs strong armour, more damage vs light armour and also better vs. infantry and buildings but a little low on the priority list, but will add it to our to do list.According to my sources all Jordanian Scorpions where upgraded by JERSCO, replacing their 76mm guns with 30mm automatic guns, adding 4x AT-14 Kornet-E launchers on the side of the turret, as well as adding day/night sights (to some of them on that list bit and not on the normal block it would be mounted) and they look something like this, note it is still mostly the old Scorpion turret with the old night sight block and the coaxial MG hole has been blocked up etc:We did consider making this for the MEC but decided that a fully automatic 30mm version, with 4x AT missiles was a little too much for a vehicle as small as thisYes, each weapons system on the Frigate will have its own player seat requiring a player to use it, and yes it will have all the weapons it had during the Falklands War, which doesn't include the LY-60N Hunting Eagle SAM which is a Chinese weapons system based/inspired by the American AIM-7 Sparrow missile system.It will also be possible to take off and land the Lynx on the flight deck, shot during testing of that in an early version quite a few months ago:and how the radar will work you will have to wait and see as we are trying out lots of ideas on it and we have yet to see what works well gameplay wise and may not have any kind of radar system if nothing works out well.
