Russian weapons v4
Dear Don and Andy, thanks for your big work spent for creation of the last patche for this remarkable game.
Unfortunately in our OOB there are errors and discrepancies. Here all list with links on information sources. The weapon: 1. The weapon 003 - name M1944 is a rifle has a wrong name, correct name M1930. Name M1944 in Russian army has a carbine. Carbines in Russian army have not received a wide circulation, such as for example Ak-47 Or AK-74. I would unite them under one name. english link: http://world.guns.ru/rifle/rfl03-e.htm 2. The weapon 005 - name AKSU-74 - has the wrong name, correct name AKS-74U. This weapon is not used by our army special troops. In Russia there are many forces of a special purpose, for example - army specnaz, specnaz MVD (militia), specnaz GRU, etc. In army are the weapon use basically crews, AT and ATGM sections and other. Also this weapon widely uses militia special troops (MVD - OMON) against gangsters. Actually in game spetsnaz with rifles AKS-74U is militia spetsnaz (OMON). But it is wrong - militia is not army formation. Also rifles AKS-74U are not used in engineering parts of Russian army - para pioneers. english link: http://world.guns.ru/assault/as03-e.htm 3. The weapon 006 - PPS-43 - wrong range - 150 metres - correct range of 200 metres. english link: http://world.guns.ru/smg/smg03-e.htm 4. weapons 007 and 008 -AK74 and AK47 -correct name AK-74 Rifle and AK-47 Rifle. english link: http://world.guns.ru/assault/as02-e.htm 5. weapon 014 -5.45mm RPK SAW -wrong name, correct name 5.45mm RPK-74, wrong accuracy 28, correct accuracy 27 English link: http://world.guns.ru/machine/mg16-e.htm 6. weapon 015 -RPG-2 -wrong penetration 170mm, correct 200mm. English link: http://world.guns.ru/grenade/gl01-e.htm 7. weapons 018 and 019 -RPG-7 and RPG-7V -wrong penetration 330mm and 600mm -correct no more 260-300mm and 500mm. Grenade PG-7V and VL -see link (iam have book RPG-7 40 years in arms): http://www.artillerist.ru/modules/my...oryid_260.html http://world.guns.ru/grenade/gl02-e.htm http://belostokskaya.ru/weapons_mp/antitank/rpg-7/ http://www.army.lv/?s=1465&id=485&v=1#info etc. 8. weapon 024 -RPG-18 Myxa -wrong name, correct RPG-18 Muha (transkrip to English) 9. weapon 026 RPG-22 Netto - wrong warhead size, correct 4. 10. weapon 027 and 028 - A series of grenades RKG-3, RKG-3M, RKG-3EM - was made after WW2. We do not have exact data about that in what precisely years these grenades were made, but we precisely know that at last RKG-3EM was penetration 220mm, RKG-3E 170mm, RKG-3 125mm (in game if to approximate 13). With these grenades armed only paratroops and mech infantry. http://www.militaryparitet.com/nomen...relruchgran/1/ http://army.lv/?s=629&id=105&v=1#info 11. weapon 030 - 122mm M30 L22 - in game it is used SU-122. Su-122 with such weapon were issued in the USSR from December, 1942 till August, 1943 - all 638 pieces have been let out. Quantity SU-122 with such weapon has remained and till the end of war, but already were issued as well others SU-122 with other weapon. I am assured this weapon it is necessary to clean. http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A1%D0%A3-122 12. weapon 042 -120mm 2B Mortar -wrong characteristic, correct -weapon range 142. Correct name -120mm 2B11 Mortar http://www.artillery-mz.com/en/products/03/120/ 13. weapon 043 -RPG-29 Vampir -we think, correct weapon size = 4. 14. weapon 044 -9M918 CM Rocket -correct range 220 15. weapon 045 and 046 - Why such range? 16. weapon 047 -AZP-23-4 CS Gun - This gun the gun clone - number 057 - it is necessary for cleaning. Shilka without a radar can shoot on any purposes, less precisely. 17. weapon 048 -SPG-9 73mm -correct range 1300 meters = 26. 18. weapon 049 -30mm AGS-17 GL - This weapon is better for renaming in 30mm AGS GL. It will probably use for AGS-17 Team and AGS-30 team. AGS-30 weight AGS-30 much easier than AGS-17 differs from AGS-17 that that. 19. weapon 058 - 57mm M1950 Gun -correct range 6000 meters = 120 hexes http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S-60 http://pvo.guns.ru/s60/index.htm http://www.rusarmy.com/pvo/pvo_vsk/zak_s-60.html http://fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/land/row/s-60.htm 20. weapon 059 - 2x57mm AA Gun -correct range 5500 meters = 110 hexes http://pvo.guns.ru/zsu-57-2/index.htm 21. weapon 063 –7.62mm PKT TMG -wrong accuracy, correct accuracy = 24 (length barrel 722mm) http://world.guns.ru/machine/mg07-e.htm 22. weapon 068 - MON Mine - This weapon needs to be cleaned. It is a defensive mine. In game already there are such mines which we buy in defensive missions. http://www.arms.ru/mines/mon-50.htm http://tewton.narod.ru/mines/mon-50.html http://tewton.narod.ru/mines-3/mon-90.html http://mega.km.ru/Weaponry/encyclop....picNumber=2574 23. weapon 069 and 070 - 14.5mm KPV BMG and 14.5mm KPV CMG - This weapon needs to be cleaned. At tank T-10M 2 machine guns 14.5mm KPV TMG (080 no CMG) and 14.5mm KPV AAMG (056) are used. There are no data about that that on SU-100 the machine gun 14.5mm KPV BMG was used. 24. weapon 072 - 76mm D56TM A -correct name 76mm D56T, aim range 4000 meters = 80 hexes, sabot range 2000 meters=40 hexes. http://www.rustrana.ru/article.php?nid=741&sq=19,27,64,82,100,606&crypt= http://armoured.vif2.ru/pt-76.htm 25. weapon 073 - 100mm D10 44 -correct name 100mm D10T Gun -correct range 80 hexes -4000 meters, sabot range 40 hexes.

Re: Russian weapons v4
"AK74 and AK47 -correct name AK-74 Rifle and AK-47 Rifle"
Maybe you don't see how ridiculous complaints like this look ?? NO.. obviously not. And "3. The weapon 006 - PPS-43 - wrong range - 150 metres - correct range of 200 metres" NO, correct range for SMG's using pistol ammo in this game is 3 hexes max, not 4 and I don't really care what sources you list that say otherwise. You already complained about this previously. Obviously I ignored your recommendation and it's not going to change so if we release another upgrade next year and it's still 3 hexes I supposed you'll include it on the next list as well ? and "22. weapon 068 - MON Mine - This weapon needs to be cleaned. It is a defensive mine. In game already there are such mines which we buy in defensive missions. " MOM mine is in the game for the same reason the claymores are in the US and USMC OOB's. Sorry you disagree but I have no intention of "cleaning" it from the OOB. "89. weapon 238 - 9M119 Refleks - this is weapon clone weapon 172. I suggest to clean this weapon. " Yes, I'm well aware of the duplicate Refleks. There were other weapon changes that resulted in a number of minor scenario problems which I corrected and issued new versions of . Removing one or the other of those would result in much more serious scenario problems so the duplicate stays. "weapon 047 -AZP-23-4 CS Gun - This gun the gun clone - number 057 - it is necessary for cleaning. Shilka without a radar can shoot on any purposes, less precisely. " Yes but it's supposed to represent a vehicle only used against ground targets and if you give it a flak gun it will react to aircraft like a flak gun and when used as a CS it's not supposed to. Look........ Anyone really interested enough to be concerned that we call and "AK47" an "AK47" instead of a "AK-47 Rifle" will use your OOB and we allow you the space to offer it. 99% of the other players know an AK47 or and AK-47 or an AK-47 Rifle are all the same thing. Worrying if we have a hypen is just a bit too much but thanks for taking the time to do so. Just because you find a source that says an RPG-2 had 200 mm of penetration ( for example ) doesn't mean I have to accept if I check other sources and find differing opinions I make a design decision and go with that. I went though most of the list you published previously some things I changed, some things, obviously, I didn't but I will certainly tuck this list away and when I can actually look at an OOB ( especially that OOB ) again without getting a headache I will go though it and anything I agree with I will change and anything I don't , I won't and then next release we can go though this all again.

Re: Russian weapons v4
11. weapon 030 - 122mm M30 L22 I have no intention of debating this entire list but perhaps you can explain to us all how the gun used by the SU-122 and the ISU-122 were the same ? Perhaps you have a photo of an SU-122 in service post war with the ISU-122's gun ?? Don |
Re: Russian weapons v4
Quote:
It's used exactly the same way the claymores are used in the USMC and USA OOB. It's there to defend against close assaults. If an enemy unit gets within range the weapon will discharge. YOU may not see the point in it but I will remind you this isn't your game. Don |
Re: Russian weapons v4

From the middle of 50th years on the basis of tank T-54 chassis it has been developed SU-122-54 with a gun 122mm D-49 - this gun is similar to a gun 122mm D-25T. ISU-122 Use a gun 122mm A-19. Further this gun modernised also it has take name D-25. |

We consider that this list needs to be investigated attentively and if necessary to discuss it at a forum. Best regards |
Re: Russian weapons v4
It would be desirable to wish SP Camo fruitful cooperation with developers national OOB, they deserve that !
Start up even in a year, in new patches we shall see more realism in WinSP. |
Re: Russian weapons v4
Quote:
I see. So explain to me why your OOB has SU-122's using the same gun as a IS-2M and a IS-3 and a IS-4 and a T-10 and a T-10B and a ISU-122 in from 1946 to the end of 1954. Please do provide photos of this version of the SU-122. I would be quite interested in seeing them. You imply thatALL SU-122's had the short M30 L22 gun removed and replaced with the D-25T starting 1946 ??? Prove it. Don |
Re: Russian weapons v4
Why we in this theme discuss our OOB?
In this theme I have written that from more 600 made SU-122 with this gun, have a little reached the war end. By the Soviet designers of down M30 it has been recognised by unsuccessful for SU-122 and in August, 1943 manufacture SU-122 has been stopped. Also in design SU-122 there were lacks, for example there was no machine gun. If in this theme to speak about our OOB we never and did not speak that we OOB does not contain errors - the list of changes in it and the found out errors we always published at this forum. We are always ready to discuss errors or discrepancies and to correct them. I will study a question about SU-122 and if we are wrong in more details, we is made changes to our OOB. Best regards. |
Re: Russian weapons v4
After a quick search, I found some pictures of the SU-122-54 aka IT-122.
http://www.dishmodels.ru/wshow.htm?p=457&lng=E SU-122 and SU-122-54 are two different vehicles because one uses the hull of a T-34 and the other uses the hull of the T-54. Additionally, I believe SU-122-54 was developed to be a tank destroyer. I have no clue how many of them were produced (one translated Russian site says only 77). I haven't found anything about World War 2 SU-122s having their howitzers being upgraded to the 122mm D-49. During World War 2, the Russians tried to replace the howitzer but those tanks failed during the trials. |

Why we in this theme discuss our OOB? [/quote] Why ? Because you're the one claiming the SU-122 as we have modeled in the Russian OOB did not exist with the 122mm M30 L22 gun and that we should "clean" that weapon from the OOB but if we "clean" that weapon from the OOB something must replace it in the vehicle.. yes ? So I took a little peek at your OOB and lo and behold you give your SU-122 the same gun as the IS-2M the IS-3, the IS-4 , the T-10 , the T-10B and the ISU-122 in from 1946 to the end of 1954 so I ask you to justify that with proof and the Russian Wikipedia entry isn't very good "proof". I figured since you posted a list of 93 mostly trivial "errors" in our OOB you wouldn't have a problem with my questioning your work. You really don't consider that MAYBE we don't always think your info was passed down on stone tablets. The range of the RCL's is just one example. So.. show me information on this other weapon the post war SU-122's are supposed to have used. A photo would be a good start especially one of an SU-122 carrying the gun from a T-10 Don |

Yep... I've seen the photos of that SU-122-54. I would be happier if there was something other than one set of photos in a museum setting. What I'm really curious about are the upgraded post war SU-122's which, as you also discovered, there really isn't anything to be found about them. Don |

A problem only in that that you cannot clean in general SU-122 with gun M30 from game. Also it is not necessary to ask from me proofs of presence at SU-122 guns D-25T - I have already written to you that I will study this question and in need of our OOB I will make changes. But from the middle of 50th years appears SU-122-54 is the fact. But in this theme I did not write about identity of gun D-25 and M30. Range of shooting RCL - I have presented to you to proofs of the table of shooting of these tools which are made together with these guns and stand out to soldiers for trainings. But you have ignored them. In this case iron - but you them do not accept my proofs. |

Re: Russian weapons v4
Maxim
That's fine you gave the details about the SU-122-54. Its very helpful and FYI I have already built a new Icon for the vehicle but that's not what I was asking "billybob2002" about. OK ? Right from the start it's been about the M30 L22 gun on the WW2 vintage post war Su-122's you want me to "clean" out of the OOB and replace with..... ?? As I already pointed out, you "replaced" that gun in your OOB with the same gun as is mounted on the SU-122-54 and THAT is what I want to see proof of. OK? Right now I'm only interested in hearing about the gun mounted on the WW2 vintage post war Su-122's that existed AFTER WW2 ended and BEFORE the introduction of the SU-122-54. Don |

Re: Russian weapons v4
Hi,
may be I can help with some info on SU-122. Bronetankovaya tekhnika SSSR 1939-45, page 22: "Self-propelled gun SU-122. Self-propelled gun for infantry support. Based on chassi of medium tank T-34 with 122mm howitzer M-30. Accepted for service on December 2, 1942. Serial production in UZTM (Sverdlovsk). From December 1942 to August 1943 built 638 pieces." According to polish "monography" on SU-85/100/122 states, that there were 637 pieces. Other modifications of SU-122, though built in as much as 10 machines, were not accepted for service. Since August 1943 thus there were no serial SU-122 in production, until 1955. During 1955 and 1956 there was a small scale prodcution of about 95 SU-122-54, which are a completely different vehicle, than the old venerable SU-122. About the new SU-122-54: "Self-propelled gun SU-122 (object 600). The last soviet self-propelled gun for special purposes based on tank chassis, that was in serial production. Developed since 1949 as a tank destroyer. Accepted for service in 1954. Serial production ran in small series in 1955 and 1956. SU-122 (sometimes designated in literature as SU-122-54) was quite modern self-propelled gun, measured by standards of fifties. Powerful gun, strong armor protection and not bad speed guaranteed it good fighting qualities. It is not possible to determine the number of manufactured machines, but it is known, that factory No. 221 "Barricades" manufactured 65 guns D-49 in 1955 and additional 30 in 1956. In 1957 there was no production. Evidently accepting for service of first generation ATGM, which were much more effective anti-tank weapons, have made further production of SU-122 superfluous. In the middle of sixties it became clear, that blunt nose projectile Br-471B does not penetrate either turret or hull front of American M60 or British Chieftain at any distance. It did not even penetrate front turret of American M48A2, and it came through hull front only under 100 meters..." (Bronetankovaya tekhnika SSSR 1945-95, part 2, page 15) The main gun of these new SU-122 was D-49. As the same text states elsewhere "inner construction of gun barrel, ballistics and ammunition - the same as for D-25T." To summarize - 637 SU-122 based on T-34 had M-30 and were in service from 1943 on (end date not known to me, as well as number that actually survived the war, if any). They were not modernized in any way, AFAIK. 95 new SU-122 based on T-54 had D-49 (essentially the same gun as D-25T) and were in service from 1955 on (end date 1970 or earlier - vehicles were disarmed and used as MTP-3 and other auxiliary machines). Hope that helps a bit. I may look for further details, but I guess there is not much surprise waiting. Regards, badger45 BTW - many many thanks for continuous upgrades and patches. Unbelievable! |

Re: Russian weapons v4
Here the reference to history of creation and history of war of this gun - SU-122:
http://www.bronetehnika.narod.ru/su122/su122.html http://armour.kiev.ua/Tanks/WWII/SU122/su122.html In the end of this history it is written (machine translator): "... However howitzer SU-122 still remained on arms of samohodno-artillery regiments. In such to a regiment was available 16 SU-122 which up to the beginning of 1944 continued to be used for support of infantry and tanks. However its such application was insufficiently effective because of small initial speed of a shell - 515 km/s - and, hence, small indirect its trajectories. Arriving since August, 1943 in much considerable quantities in armies new SU-85 has quickly replaced the predecessor in the field of fight and nevertheless it is necessary to notice, that capacity of 85-mm of fragmentation shells was insufficient for breaking up of strips of defence of the opponent. Therefore, for example, armoured management of 4th guards tank army in April, 1944 persistently asked the higher organisations to find at least 20 SU-122 as SU-85 were unsuitable for struggle against the strengthened machine-gun points. ... " I suggest to clean this gun # 030 - 122mm M30 L22 from game and SU-122 before occurrence SU-122-54. |
Re: Russian weapons v4
You can do whatever you like with your OOB. In the games OOB the SU-122 with the M30 L22 stays in until the SU-122-54 enters service. What you offer here says NOTHING about it being removed from service after the war and only reinforces it's value in dealing with strong points.
