I would never claim there is no room for improvement in CMCW spotting or any other CM spotting but pitting thermal sights (M60 TTS) against normal daylight sights is apples to oranges. I just ran a M60A3 test vs T-72A and got the following spotting times at 2000 meters: M60 spotting T-72 (in seconds) 8 52 61 84 139 148 169 223 259 T-72 spotting M60 (in seconds) 9 30 32 46 115 146
