=== Fire control and sights === [[File:Challenger 2 Tankfest 2009.jpg|thumb|A close up view of a Challenger 2]] The digital fire control computer from [[General Dynamics|Computing Devices Co]] of Canada contains two 32-bit processors with a MIL STD1553B databus. It has capacity for additional systems, such as a Battlefield Information Control System. The commander has a panoramic [[SAGEM]] VS 580-10 gyrostabilised sight with [[laser rangefinder]]. The elevation range is +35Β° to β35Β°. The commander's station is equipped with eight [[periscope]]s for 360Β° vision. The Thermal Observation and Gunnery Sight II (TOGS II), from [[Thales Group|Thales]], provides [[night vision]]. The thermal image is displayed on both the gunner's and commander's sights and monitors. The gunner has a stabilised primary sight using a laser rangefinder, with a range of {{convert|200|m|abbr=on}} to {{convert|10|km|abbr=on}}. The driver's position is equipped with a Thales Optronics image-intensifying Passive Driving Periscope (PDP) for night driving and a rear view thermal camera.
