Default Re: Wasting High Explosive Anti Tank Rounds
You are confusing a feature with a bug.HEAT rounds are used against soft targets ALL the time in real life.

HEAT RPG-7s rounds have been and are being fired against personnel in every situation imaginable.

Most current western MBTs have only APFSDS and HEAT commonly available. Do you think that Abrams in Iraq have never used their main guns except in an emergency? Think again.
