I want better T-34
« on: June 01, 2008, 02:28:42 PM »
I want T-34 with 85 mm turrett and 5 men fast action crew and less Vodka to them. Tank commander should have got "Proletarian Hero" red star at least twice :salute  and crew should be nkvd soldiers with uber sovjet attitude  :devil

It is ridiculous that I must shoot about 8 times with my T-34 hvap under 4 to 800 yds. to firefly to get it down.

Just remember...the HVAP's are lighter, they will not cause as much damage to a heavy tank as regular AP's will.

HVAP is for longer distance, AP is for shorter distance.  :aok

The wind for their watcher, the wave for their shroud,
Where palm and pandanus shall whisper forever,

HVAP = High Velocity Armor Piercing

It was designed for extra armor penetration, not extra range.  The allies did not need range, they needed better armor penetration vs German armor.

Ya got that backwards chief. HVAP slows down quicker because it is lighter.

HVAP is only good for about 1200yards.

HE works better on light skinned vehicals for me.

AP is like punching a hole thru a soda can with a pencil.
