Smaragdadler Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 I tried to make some 'grog-table' for the red tanks in CMSF. This is what I can come up with. Feel free to post your thoughts/found mistakes/critic. + CMSF Red Tank Cabability Table + by Smaragdadler version: 1.0 The tanks are ordered as classes and after technology level . The rating of a tank 'good/bad' makes only sense against members of his own class. Classes from low to high are: uncon, reserve, regular and guard. Tec level follows decades and goes up with time. Comparison of tanks (worse/better) from different classes should only made in same tec level. "+equipment" -> item in question is added newly with this upgrade "equpment(+)" -> item in question gets upgraded version "version(+...)" -> number of crosses shows the number of upgrade of this particular model [blabla] -> more specific info about upgrade 1950's tec T-54B (immobile): original Russian base model: 100mm Gun, 7.62mm coaxMG, 12.7mm AAMG, Gyrostab, Radio, Wpn Controls, Optics, Tracks, static[!]; T-55 (immobile): original Russian base model: ammunition(+) 1960's tec nothing -> all upgraded to at least 70's tec level 1970's tec T-55-1970: upgrade original version(+): 100mm Gun(+), +gyrostab, engine(+); *worst red reserve / standard red uncon* T-62-1972: upgrade original Russian model(+): 115mm Gun, Gyrostab(+), Optics(+)[NV600-800m]; *rare bad red reserve* T-55-1974: upgrade original version(++): +Targeting[KTD-2]; *standard red reserve* T-62-1975: upgrade original version(++): +Targeting[KTD-2]; *rare above-standard red reserve* T-72M (Early): base Russian export model: +125mm Gun, +Targeting[KTD-1], *good red reserve* T-72M: upgrade Russian export version: +appliqué, +skirts, +smoke; *worst red regular* T-72M1: base Czecoslovakian export model: appliqué(+) *extremly rare very good red reserve* 1980's tec T-62M : upgrade original version(+++): +ATGM[AT-12], +appliqué, Targeting(+)[Volna], Engine(+),Optics(+), +skirts, +smoke, ; *very good red reserve* T-55MV: upgrade original version(+++): +ATGM[AT-10],Targeting(+)[Volna], Engine(+), +Skirts, +Smoke, optics(+), +smoke, +ERA[Kontakt]; *very good red regular* T-62MV: upgrade original version(++++): +ERA[Kontakt]; *very good red regular* T-72M1V: Russian upgrade Czecoslovakian export version(+): +ERA[Kontakt]; *über red reserve* 1990's tec T-72M1V (2001): Russian upgrade Czecoslovakian export version(++): +GPS, +ATGM[AT-11(laser)], 125mm(+), 12.7(+)[remote], optics(+)[iR3000-3500m], targeting(+)[coop optics, new fcc+stab],ERA(+)[3dKontakt5], suspension(+), engine(+); *standard red guard* 21cent tec ('modern' = fire-on-the-move-hunter-killer) T-72M1V TURMS-T: Italian upgrade Czecoslovakian export version(+++): targeting(+)[TURMS-T FCC], optics(+)[iR peri©], targeting(+)[iR+LRF+ digiFCC]; *very good red guard [CzechT-72M4 equal]* T-90SA: Russian export model Algerian version: ATGM[AT-11(laser), 125mm Gun (modern), 7.62mm coaxMG, 12.7 AAMG, LRF, dual-axis stab, digiFCC, IR-Optics, CSGS, ERA[3dKontakt5], Shtora(export); *über red guard* Explanation of equipment and in game function (not finished yet): Fire Control Systems / Sight Systems Gyrostab = Gyrostabilisator -> prescision Targeting = Laser Range finder (LRF) -> time fire control computer (FCC): analog(old) or digi(modern) -> precision stabilisation (stab): normal (old) or dual-axis(modern) -> precision CSGS - commander slaved gunner screen optics = night vision systems: active NV (bad) or passive IR (good) periscope panoramic Armor appliqué = armour consists of extra plates mounted onto the hull or turret of an AFV. The plates can be made of any material and are designed to be retrofitted to an AFV to withstand weapons which can penetrate the original armour of the vehicle. ERA = Explosive Reactive Armour 'Shtora' (Russian: ‘curtain’) is a Russian electro-optical protection suite for tanks, designed to disrupt the laser target designation and rangefinders of incoming anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs). CMSF features the less capable passive export version with anti-IR smoke auto launcher. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damian90 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 T-72M1 is not Chechoslovakian version but Soviet, it was just better export tank rather than T-72M, both were export versions of T-72A. Of course T-72M and T-72M1 were produced in numerous countries, like Poland, in my country in Bumar-Labedy (Bumar-Łabędy) factory were produced T-72M's and T-72M1's, i 90's some of them were upgraded to PT-91 Twardy (Hard, Strong) standard. So as I said, T-72M1 is a soviet export version of T-72A but produced on licence in some countries. The T-90SA have basic Shtora-1 EOCMDAS system but without IR-Emmiters, so T-90SA have better front turret K-5 cover (worth to say is many Russian T-90A's also have not installed IR-Emmiters), but have laser warning equipment and smoke granades disargers with anti FLIR smoke or something like that. T-62M have BDD aromor on front hull glacis plate and front turret, it can be called an early multilayer armor, it is similiar in how it works to British Stillbrew armor installed on late Chieftains. There were also T-55 models like T-55AM Merida (was used by Polish Army) that were equiped with BDD armor. And one thing more, T-54B have an, well how to wright it in English? An course (?) machine gun for driver. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smaragdadler Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 Thanks for info, I will implement it and name you in the credits. All type designations are CMSF-specific and in the manual is written, these particular SYR T-72M1 are Chechoslovakian export models (license build of course). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian90 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Thanks for info, I will implement it and name you in the credits. Ho ho ho! I don't expect that but thanks! :-) All type designations are CMSF-specific and in the manual is written, these particular SYR T-72M1 are Chechoslovakian export models (license build of course). So yes I agree if Syrian T-72M1's are licence builds from Chechoslovakia not an original T-72M1's builded in Soviet Union. But I must say something, my speciality are western III/III+ generation MBT's, especially M1 Abrams series, on Sov tanks my knowledge is mostly well, advanced basic if I can use such statement. ;-) But if you have any questions, just ask, I try my best to make many things clear. :-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smaragdadler Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 made a little quick list for scenario designers: CMSF Red Tanks Quick List (by Smaragdadler) T-54B (immobile): static 360° AT-bunker T-55 (immobile) : static 360° AT-bunker (more ammo) ------------------------------------------------------------------ 1970's tec T-55-1970 : standard uncon / worst reserve T-62-1972 : bad reserve, rare T-55-1974 : standard reserve T-62-1975 : above-standard reserve, rare T-72M(Early) : good reserve T-72M : worst regular T-72M1 : very good reserve, extremely rare ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1980's tec T-62M : best reserve T-55MV : standard regular T-62MV : best regular T-72M1V : über reserve ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1990's tec T-72M1V (2001) : standard guard (night hunter) ------------------------------------------------------------------- 21centTec T-72M1V TURMS-T : very good guard (hunter-killer) T-90SA : best guard (fire-on-the-move-hunter-killer) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian90 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 T-90SA : best guard (fire-on-the-move-hunter-killer) Whoa! Wait, T-90SA doesen't have real H-K capababilitie. Only tanks that have real H-K are M1A2 and M1A2SEP, FV4034 Challenger 2, Leopard 2A5/A6, AMX-56 Leclerc, K1/K1A1 and K2, TK-90 and TK-10 and Merkava Mk.4A/B. Partial H-K have M1A1SA and M1A1FEP thanks to TIS for CWS, but it is not a real H-K, Leopard 2A1/A4 have H-K only in day, FV4030 Challenger 1, M1, M1IP/M1A1, M1A1HA and M1A1HA+/HC have only Gunners Primary Sight Extension (GPSE) for TC so he need to use Gunners Primary Sight (GPS). Russian tanks have optics in TC cupolla but without TIS and it is common that they doesen't have even GPSE, so capabilieties are similiar to Leo2A1/A4. Besides this all tanks with main gun stabilisation, Fire Control System and stab for sights can fire on the move, accuracy depends on FCS quality, gun and ammo quality and gunners skills. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smaragdadler Posted August 5, 2009 Author Share Posted August 5, 2009 So, no red H-K in CMSF? TURMS-T? Battlefront? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian90 Posted August 5, 2009 Share Posted August 5, 2009 Oh yeah, I forget, sorry, TURMS-T have H-K capabilities. :-) Well, the whole problem is very complex, and I don't know if my knowledge is good enough. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian90 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 And I forget something else. This is very important. In western tanks TC can override gunners instruments and take full control on FCS from his position, so he can use main weapons from his position even if gunner is kocked out. In Russian/Ukrainian tanks (I don't consider here new T-84U Oplot-M with CITV and other upgrades) TC can use his optics and special switch to designate a target for a gunner but he can't override his instruments and he can't use FCS, main gun and coax from his station. So i.e. even if M1A1SA doesen't have full H-K TC still can engage targets by himself so reaction is very quick, in comparision T-72M1V with TURMS-T even if have full H-K TC can't use main gun also in situation when gunners is dead or seriously wounded, and beelive me, in Russian tanks changing position in battle is almost impossible, even in western tanks is difficult. ;-) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Battlefront.com Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 Great stuff! The T-72M and T-72M1s were purchased from Czechoslovakia, IIRC, from domestic production. But Damian90 is correct that, technically speaking, it's a Soviet tank. After the fall of the Soviet Union most countries making Soviet tanks kept at it but started adding their own changes to them. The TURMS-T is an early example of this. Steve 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smaragdadler Posted August 6, 2009 Author Share Posted August 6, 2009 I don't understand this fixation about the czech build T-72 beeing a russian (better than 'soviet' to hit the point in this case) design. Best Warsaw Pact tec-quality comes from DDR and Czechoslovakia. I thought you have made some modifiers for steel quality or similar for the czech build T-72? (like late war German steel quality got negative modifier for production quality decrease and sabotage in late war.) Counter case: If someone wants to sell you this new china build Leopard 2, your main consideration for purchasing this special offer or not, don't rest with the fact that it is a german design. For tanks spec the 'material production environment' is more important than where the blueprints come from. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damian90 Posted August 6, 2009 Share Posted August 6, 2009 I don't understand this fixation about the czech build T-72 beeing a russian (better than 'soviet' to hit the point in this case) design. This is not a fixation. T-72M and T-72M1 were soviet designs, a export versions of T-72A for WarPac countries like Poland, DDR or Chechoslovakia. I don't know like other countries but Poland also recive original T-72's before we purchase T-72M's and T-72M1's, later in Poland, DDR and Chechoslovakia this tanks were produced on licence and also were sold to many countries, i.e. Poland sold some T-72M's and T-72M1's to Iraq. But one thing that is worth to say, T-72M/M1's for non WarPac countries were even more downgraded. Best Warsaw Pact tec-quality comes from DDR and Czechoslovakia. Yes and no, besides you forget Poland. ;-) We also make some good stuff in coop with Chechoslovakia like TOPAS or SKOT. :-) The best weaponary was reserved only for Soviet forces in WarPac, well, soviets never beelive it allies in WarPac, especially us, Poles. ;-) But export variants and domestic weapon designs were best in DDR, Chechoslovakia and Poland as you say, yeah Poland forces as soviets planned were choosen to attack Denmark. ;-) Oh well, I only hope that my terrible english is not so hard to understand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The tanks are ordered as classes and Tech-level . The rating of a tank 'good/bad' makes only sense against members of his own class. Classes from low to high are: Special: tactical usage diverts from original intended use Uncon: diverse trained civil, paramilitary, military and non-state actors -> heroic front-line/rear-line guerilla tactics with unpredictable but generally low-tech equipment Reserve: trained conscripts/retired state-professionals -> worst front-line-defensive/ weak rear-line-offensive tactics with mostly second-hand equipment Regular: trained standard professional 2nd/3th-world state-army -> standard rear-line-offensive/standard front-line defensive tactics with average equipment Guard: elite trained and political reliable professional 2nd/3th-world state-army -> up-standard front-line/rear-line offensive/defensive tactics U.S.Army: professional 1th-world superpower standard army -> standard front-line offensive/defensive tactics USMC: professional 1th-world superpower imperial army for force/power projection -> up-standard front-line offensive tactics U.K.: professional 1th-world standard defensive army -> sub-standard-front-line-offensive/ up-standard-front-line-defensive-tactics Tech level follows decades and goes up with time.

flamingknives Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 No night H-K, FV4034 have CIV no CITV for TC. Both, M1A1SA/M1A2SEP with T.U.S.K.-1 and FV4034 Challenger 2 with Street Fighter kit are strong urban, CR2 (enchanced) doesen't have night H-K. To be picky, the panoramic sight used on all CR2s has an II channel, so to say that it has no night H-K capacity is a bit disingenuous. The lack of TI capacity means that H-K ability is degraded in poor weather conditions though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cambronne Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Smaragdadler,in your post I saw the T-55-1970.I simply cannot find it,the only nonstatic T55 I can find is the "1974"one. Where can T-55-1970 be found??? Thanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smaragdadler Posted August 8, 2009 Author Share Posted August 8, 2009 Seems it is forgotten. But T-55-1970 is explicitly mentioned in the manual. What in turn is not mentioned in the manual - but can be found in game, is the immobile original T-55 static AT-Bunker.

Smaragdadler Posted August 8, 2009 Author Share Posted August 8, 2009 I have come to the conclution, that the static T-55 Bunker in the game is actually a T-55-1970. Seems there was never the intention to implement a operational T-55. On the UI-picture in the describtion of the T-55-1970 in the manual is written T-55 (static). It's seems in some patch some ammo was added. I also use the scipio ui-mods and my static T-55 is just marked that - T-55, without (static). Sorry, my mistake. that means we have no mobile lateWW2like upgraded100mm/gyrostab MBT in the game and the Special section is now: +1950's Tech+ T-54B (immobile):standard Special (static lateWW2like) -> N -protected 360°100mm/gyrostab-AT-bunker T-55-1970 (immobile): good Special (static lateWW2like) -> NBC-protected 360°upgraded100mm/gyrostab-AT-bunker No "old rusty Tank" for Uncons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lack of TI capacity means that H-K ability is degraded in poor weather conditions though. If CIV of FV4034 have night channel but this is not TI this means that not only in poor weather conditions visibility is limmited but also in normal conditions is limited, the visibility range of nightvision is lower than TI so full night H-K is good only to, hmmm probably 800m. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
