Comparative Lethality in AH
« on: October 16, 1999, 03:45:00 PM »
In another thread I was discussing the comparative lethality of the planes in AH, and thought I would post them in a seperate thread so that other interested pilots could see the data.

***********************
Using Shaw's Lethality formula +Plus explosive component, and assuming a conservative 50% of explosive energy from cannon shells is applied to an airframe, you get the following Lethality in kilo-Joules from the planes in AH so far.

Me109G10------------------------- 3309/2136/1924/750
(30-x2(20)/20-x2(20)/30/20/)
Fw190A8-------------------------- 2773
Spitfire IX---------------------- 2105/1852
(.50/.303)
N1K2-J--------------------------- 1512
La-5fn--------------------------- 1373
P-51----------------------------- 1322/881

Or if you assume that the x6 .50MG's P-51 as the standard firepower of 1.00 you get the following

Me109G10------------------------- 2.45/1.58/1.42/0.55
(30-x2(20)/20-x2(20)/30/20/)
Fw190A8-------------------------- 2.05
Spitfire IX---------------------- 1.56/1.37
(.50/.303)
N1K2-J--------------------------- 1.14
La-5fn--------------------------- 1.01
P-51----------------------------- 1.00/0.65
(x6MG/x4MG)

Verm,

Are you saying this is how AH models lethality or how it should be modeled?

This is approximately how it should be modeled. All the data came from historic numbers.

I have nothing to do with the creation of the game and am just a player myself.
