History

Class: Light Tank
Developed: 1966-1970
Service: 1971+
Vehicles Built: 466
Operators: United Kingdom, Latvia, formerly Belgium

The FV107 Scimitar is a close relative of the FV101 Scorpion. The biggest difference lies in its firepower since the Scimitar carries a 30mm RARDEN autocannon instead of Scorpion's 76mm gun. Despite being just as obsolete as the Scorpion, the Scimitar remains active in British service simply because the military has nothing to replace it with. Recently, an upgrade program was launched to keep it operational until at least 2023.

Vehicle Traits

• Harder to Spot: When moving slowly, this vehicle does not lose any camouflage and can effectively creep around.
• Designate Target: This vehicle has the ability to designate targets that are within its line of sight. Designated targets are marked to other players and take increased damage.
• Autocannon Only: This vehicle is armed only with a (usually more powerful) autocannon.
• HESH Rounds: This vehicle can fire special Squash Head rounds. These are extremely effective against angled armor that is typical for Soviet tanks.
• Recon Package: This vehicle's set of advanced optics provides an improved vision range when stationary.
• Improved Reverse: This vehicle can drive backwards much faster than other vehicles can.
