I preferred Noodle when he was part of Gorillaz. This new Jesus fad is annoying.

Maybe he'll try to convert Murdoc xD

Primitive as hell.

If you want to consume the Body of Christ, you need only to attend mass.

Hello friends.  Have you accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as your savior?
Eh... no
You don't want to suffer eternal damnation, do you?
Why not? I suffer it every night. EVERY. NIGHT. Take THAT to your god!

You don't know suffering.  You did not suffer nearly as bad as our Lord did at calvary.

I'm the opposite opinion with Smashy. Hate coffee, and I like tea.

ohai guys. After my old avatar to troll GF, I now don't know what to have as my avatar. Has anyone got any sensible suggestions?
I'm in a random drawing mood after doing so well on my Second Alice Suzaku picture, I could draw one for you... if you wanted, of course. It'd be in the same style as boss'
Draw a giant mecha negro with a monocle and top hat.  Now.

Sorry, ACAMS beat you to it.

M1 Abrams =/= Challenger 2
Tanks are usually rated on firepower, mobility and protection, so I'll have a look at those stats on both tanks and compare-
The Challenger 2's main armament is very good, with plenty of potential to fire future natures. It can also do bombardments because of its rifled gun. Split ammo is safer, but takes longer to load than the M1 one-piece. The M1's smoothbore defeats anything at present, but would need a longer barrel to get faster projectiles.
Infantry suppression is poor on the Challenger 2, whereas the M1 has a total of three Machine Guns for dealing with close-range attackers, and may be fitting a remote weapon system for the commander.

The M1 wins hands down on mobility; it has a very powerful and reliable petrol turbine which consumes fuel like Smarties, but goes on and on, compared to the somewhat slower engine in the Challenger 2. On the plus side for the Challenger 2 however, it can go much further than the M1 on a tank of fuel, and even further with its extra fuel drums.

The front of the M1 seems more-or-less invulnerable to most weaponry, while the sides are are weak- numerous M1A1 were lost to RPG attacks. However, I remember a Challenger 2 that that took 8 direct RPG hits and a hit from a MILAN, but still fought on. In comparison, the only Challenger 2 lost to date was due to a friendly fire incident from another Challenger 2 (and even that was left a mess after what had happened).
The strength of the Challenger 2's front is questionable-hence the ERA (Explosive Reaction Armour), but has excellent add-on Dorchester/Chobham Armour on the sides. Plus, you're more likely to survive a turret strike in the Challenger 2, due to its split ammo storage and its electric gun kit- therefore, no Hydraulic Fluid to ignite.

So yes- from what I know, they've both got their advantages and disadvantages- the Challenger 2 specialises in reliability, crew safety and defence, whilst the M1 specialises in speed and attacking capability at varied ranges. Even still, I do see them both as great tanks to have, particularly considering they're both on the same side.
I do hope I haven't missed/misrepresented anything though, as it's been a while since I've last been near a tank.

(Although for me, Challenger 2 just wins out of the two, as it has a boiling vessel   :approve:  )

Do keep in mind that the M1 Abrams has been in service since 1980 and the current Challenger 2 has only been in service since 1998.  This means that comparing the losses of the M1 to just the Challenger 2 would be rather unfair, as it would not account for any losses of Challenger 1's in the Gulf War.  Plus, you need to keep in mind that the US has been heavily involved with the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and thus are put to the test a lot more than the challengers are (I'm not sure how involved the British got with those wars, but I'm going to assume that it wasn't nearly as much as the US).

In addition, only 800 or so Challenger 1's and 2's have been built whereas 9000+ Abrams have been built.

Great, more 12 year olds spamming you with how good they were at getting two frags in a row. -.-'

This.

I just can't wait for JewTube to be flooded with videos of 13 year olds running around with throwing knives and whacking off at how brilliant they are.
