  4.  @LeeTillbury  Challenger 3 is an upgrade rather than blank sheet tank design. It's not necessarily what the British army think is the best tank, just the best they can get for the cost.

  5.  @LeeTillbury  no one said they weren't great, just not the best. Upgrading is undeniable cheaper than a new design would be.

  7. Overstating it. Challenger 2 needs some updates but it's getting them with 3 but regardless it's still in the top tier of tanks.
