Ok, here is the scenario. I'm on a training server on Al Basrah, and I'm trying to see how fast the CR2 can go. So I go to the area with the bridge to the Island tat has the destroyable fences. I gun the thing into one of them and....look at figure one

I was like OMGWTFBBQ!?!111 (not really) so I go back to my starting point and try again
THis is the after math...

If I ever have to join a battle on either a platoon of CR2s or a platoon of fences...Im betting on the fences....

Has always been a problem with the destructible fences at high speeds.

we found a new tactic !

didn't they had the same problem in .7 ? with cars.
and it's pretty , pretty badass to jump 50m in the air and sometimes land good with no damage

i managed to get ontop of the bridge on OGT one day with the apc. funny as hell at the time. something got to do with the vehicle contact points squishing the object your going accross and catapulting you into the air.

I think this happens with all vehicles. My guess is if you hit a non-static object in some way, the engine freaks out trying to get you unstuck, and launches you in some direction. In your case it was towards the heavens.
It has happened to me against fences, in an APC on OGT (like Psykogundam above me), maybe once near the bunker complexes on Kashan, they are unpredictable I think. Just don't crash into anything destructible, and you will be fine.

Your team might appreciate the intel you can give from up high, but probably won't appreciate you landing the challenger in the river.

Ppl do this on purpose all the time, there are tons of old school PR vids on youtube using it.
