    The VOG on the bmp 2 m has so little explosive filler that it doesn't actually break terrain objects like fences or trees
    It also doesn't do any damage to tracks at all or very very little. It's practically useless other than using it for blinding the enemy if you shoot them so the gernade detonates and makes a very small dust cloud

    So quick thing, APC shells do NOT normalize, this is a myth. The purpose of the cap is to slow the round down on impact to prevent the shell shattering at high speeds.

    • @fabians7751
      @fabians7751 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

      Youre correct. However, skdoger is also correct. There are different types of those caps with different effects.
      In terms of gameplay however, it's not wrong to assume that all APC shells normalize, as the shatter protection caps fell out of favor soon after WW1 due to needing low armor angles to have any impact, as well as improved metallurgy negating the effect of those shatter protection caps with tougher armor.

      It is wrong though. Out of all the basic AP types (uncapped sharp nose, capped sharp nose, uncapped blunt nose), capped rounds have generally the worse slope modifiers at higher angles.

    A cap doesn't improve the angled penetration at high angles compared to an uncapped round. It's the opposite, actually, since when hitting angled armor the nose of the uncapped round has a higher tendency to break off and effectively make the round slightly blunt.
    This is very clear with rounds like 90 mm T33 having 175 mm of penetration at 0 degrees but 67 mm at 60 degrees, while 90 mm M82 has 185 mm at 0 degrees and 65 mm at 60 degrees.

    Small corections
    1 only the american APFSDS and some other AP rounds are generally made out of DU. Other nations pretty much never used DU. The USA is also moving away from DU penetrators as far as im aware. Problem is that its still radioactive. It does not have huge effects on the crew but the same can't be said when it hits a target where it realeases significant amounts of radiation through the heating. Enough that it is not recomended to go near a vehicle thaf is destroyed with DU.
    2 HE shells have 2 penetration values. The value of the shell and the value of the explosion. The value of the shell changes over distance.
    3 Im not sure about the implementation in warthunder but HE does have a fuze sensitivity. Which would be 2cm of plywood for the 2cm Minengeshoss.

    Very nice to see this great video updated. As a small addition, smoke shells can kill open topped vehicles in-game with the low amount of HE filler contained in them, and I suppose the smoke wouldn't be very healthy for the crew in real life either (on top of the disorienting explosion, even if it didn't do much physical harm).

  • @Kuschel_K
    @Kuschel_K 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    The myth of shell normalization of APC round persists…
    The cap serves a single purpose: Distributed the impact force on the nose of the shell to keep it from breaking or shattering on impact.
    This is most likely to occur at 30° impact angle or against face hardened armor.
    It serves no point after impacting armor at greater angles than 45°, at which the nose shape becomes pretty much meaningless.

    I will note that there is another kind of ATGM, notable by the name TOW-2B (TOW: Tube launched, Optically Tracked, Wire Guided). It's a SACLOS style missile that flies over its target and fires a shaped charge down through the top. Similar to the OTA type missile, except it doesn't need to gain altitude and does not require contact with the target to deal damage, which I figure is enough of a difference to be classified into its own category.

When the sabot gets discarded, it stabilizes and acts like a normal APFSDS round. Hope that answers your question

    The French OCC 105 F1 HEAT round you get in all the amx30’s differs to a standard heat round. As the CN-105-F1 was a rifled cannon, the shell has an outer casing separated from the inner shell by ball bearings, allowing the outer casing to rotate and stabilize the shell without spinning the liner and jet.

    @KekusMagnus 8 หลายเดือนก่อน

    In-game, APBC outperforms APCBC (assuming equal mass and velocity) for angles around 25-50 degrees, which are some of the most common target angles you will encounter. The exact angle range where this happens increases with the overmatch ratio, Gaijin made public the exact formula they use a few years ago so I wrote a little python code to test it out. It's questionnable whether this is realistic or not, but the result is that large-caliber APBC shells (such as soviet 122mm ww2 shells) have unreasonably good performance versus thin sloped armor. As a result, they are actually a better choice than APCBC for most scenarios

    I think it would be important to mention hesh has received quite a significant buff to penetration on solid, homogeneous armors (such as late war German vehicles). Now it will be much more effective against these armor while still being mostly useless against composite, multi layered, spaced or reactive armor were it will rely solely on the overpressure mechanic to kill

    It's sad that you didn't mention that (some) APFSDS rounds DO experience normalization, you can very clearly see it in game.
    Their penetration at 60° will be more than half of that at 0°.

    Normally american smoke shells like the 75mm sherman cannons shell should include White Phosphorus, which is also highly poisonous so can be used for open top hunting (but is a warcrime to do)

    Small thing, in the missiles you didn't talk about the missiles that fly straight above the target, then when the time is right a HEAT charge on the side of the missile fires downward to kill the target (Tow-2B, and the other swedish one)

    i watched the original guide like 2 months ago. this showed up in my recommended just now, a mere 15 hours after it was uploaded. i did not search for this, i am not subscribed, i have not watched any videos since that first guide a few months ago. i went from watching that when i started off with reserves to now being at like 5.3 or so. the youtube algorithm works in mysterious ways

    Armor piercing caps can also sometimes be harder than the shell. In this case the hardened cap will gouge out the armor, then shatter. But the shattering cap will not hurt the main shell body.

    12:55 it is noteworthy that ATGM OTA has 2 types of systems to do this,
    For example the spike-LR/MR found on KF41 and vilkas will do exactly what the video said, and usually just fire and forget, meant that the target needs to be locked before launching.
    Meanwhile there's ATGM that will do OTA without the atgm itself has to dive like in the video. Namely the BILL ATGM (sweden: Pbv 302 BILL II and strf9040 BILL) and the TOW2B found on bradleys. These type of ATGMs need SACLOS guidance till it reach the target, and has to be aimed slightly in the target's top (preferably at the turret's top) . This is because the warhead is designed to be launched to the bottom, not to the front (CMIIW).

      @@Keep3r1438 Well, like you said, there's really no information on it whatsoever. I'm not gonna argue that it's one way or the other because I have no idea. I briefly looked KEMs up and didn't find any information about a rod penetrator, but if you found some, I'd believe it. Both is possible, although the rod is probably more likely

    Full caliber shells don't normalize like that with ballistic caps.
    It just helps reduce the effective angle of a plate by reducing ricochet chance.
    It's easier to think of it like this, the plate is at 60 degree, the cap would technically effectively reduce it but roughly 5 degrees
    Increasing penetration at angles
