Give Jason a thanks hes had 20 downloads already.

Hi Imp,
The calculator only deals with warhead size 2-5 because most WW2 AP weapons only use warhead size 2-5, with very few exceptions.
Anti-tank rifles are warhead size 2, and weapons above warhead size 5 mostly fire HE and HEAT, not AP.
I only know of one warhead size 6 weapon, and that’s a gun-pit fortification.
I know of two warhead size 7 weapons, one is Russian, the other is the German Jagdtiger with 12.8cm gun with a penetration of 24. Why would you need to know its penetration at 1000m?
I’m only aware of one warhead size 8 weapon that fires AP rounds. It’s a Russian 152mm gun.
I’m not convinced of the value of adding these, but I guess I could test them when I get a chance.
Cheers,
Cross
