Tank info for ver 4.5 MBT
Open office & works download included plus a couple of preview pics
Done to make selecting opponents faster as can check quicker if you have any chance of penetrating & easier to find than some encyclopaedia entries.
Know your enemy
Notes
Info taken straight from OOB dump may be a few errors as had to set up to import gun data but looks okay from initial check.
Things are generaly left blank rather than entering a zero so if has no HEAT round leaves blank rather than entering zero, forgot vision.
Heat armour rating is only listed if it differs from steel.
Only front armour ratings are listed.
APCR is best penetration for AP or APCR round if carries both did not list AP separately.
Note some tanks esp T-50 series carry few special rounds in a lot of cases AP for is 19 early 21 late when run out.
Ammo loads are listed at far right.
To do
Have not looked yet but some entries will be able to be deleted as same tank with different ammo loadouts, not important if reasonable loadout.
Did not include CS tanks but some are still in there as listed as MBT.
Also on classes will sort for instance Green includes light tanks in MBT class this will be done later as add light tanks SP Guns SP ATGM etc.
Will add other major threats & it should be noted till do early years some powerful TD SP Guns & of course modern Kuerassier & the like
If anybody has the time suggest splitting into decades & doing a few macros to see what it can kill & be killed by.
Post back here
Most vehicles start & end dates cover the year so selecting in year blocks is close enough for most as only a few start or end mid year.
Will get round to eventually but hands full at the moment deciding what to add & any suggestions on how to lay out for sorting will be listened
If somebody can do better please do I am by no means a database wiz
New Microsoft Works Version available a few posts down

TF = Turret AP rating
HF = Hull AP rating
TFH = Turret Heat rating
HFH = Hull Heat rating
TERA = Turret ERA 1 before is advanced
HERA = Hull ERA 1 before is advanced
Any way of having the first line stuck so that when you scroll down the list it remains visible? I am talking about the Open Office version.
Must be to be honest not looked probably better converted to an open office database just posted that way as its free.
The works one has headers as work in progress not done yet try sticking a header if cant lock it. Or post answer if find one as said busy at the mo.
Thinking about setting up default nation order as follows any comments
If my geography is up to much think I have placed most near there neighbours.
Canada & Aus on there own but would normally be a peacekeeping / fast reaction force I think so possibly lump with USMC
