We need misslie guide.
HEATFS symbol is a bit wrong, shouldn't it have the same "arrow" as HEAT has, it has the same penetration effect after all.
In game I only get shot at with one type of round, I'll let you guess which one. This could be mitigated if tanks had the ability to unload ammo and swap ammo types in the gun.
I love the animations. Nice compact little video going over the basics.
lol apdsfs creates more fragments than aphe shots, hesh somehow works like heat shell. Do u even play this game and try stuff before you post videos bro ?
Could've also mentioned that APCR and APDS doesn't really work against sloped armor. Some APDSFS might struggle aswel.
I wish this much thought actually needs to go into shell selection, all you need is APHE since the shrapnel from the explosion does significantly more damage then a direct hit with APCR or APDS to the same internal modules, APCR and APDS are more or less useless for the costs vs armor sloped more then 30 degrees, which is a large portion of sloped armor encountered, and HESH does not always work the way it should on plates well within its ability to cause spalling on
If the HEAT-FS is supposed to penetrate and kill everything INSIDE the tank... and if its supposed to work like you are explaining it (wich is pretty accurate to real life working) then why the fuck has the russian 3BK18M HEAT FS shells SPLASHDAMAGE????? only to bias russians to make it easier kill abrams? a heat shot onto the mg on top of a turret shouldnt kill the inside unless its HE... and a shot to the frontal turret armor shouldnt kill the driver sitting below guarded by metal...
Where is ATGM????
Should you explain why APFSDS raises HullBreake? Then stop turning off the inclination of APCBC.
