How do you know it's a defective product?

We are now living in a time when plastic from top companies is almost always better than resin

Look at the photo—even if we ignore the fact that the barrel appears crooked due to the crooked photo and the turret is not flat, at a minimum the cheekbone plates should not be arched at the edges.

Compare with the photo, + are the optics either closed or made without the ability to make them look pretty: the photo doesn't show either the transparent part or the groove for the sequin

Since I'm a fan of modern MBTs, I'd really like a Challenger 3, but I won't buy one for who knows what price.

Thanks for the interesting comments.

There definitely are photographs of a C3 turret with the chamfered edges (arched as you wrote) to the turret - similar to how Newland Models show it. There's also definitely photographs of a turrets with square edges (as you say they should be). I wonder if the earliest prototype had the chamfered edges & the later ones square edges?

I agree, for large assemblies such as tank turrets the top companies are producing quality that difficult to beat.
