Armor penetration values

[DRG]

ACC / KILL / PEN / HEAT / APCR / RANGE / WARHEAD
14 / 11:00 / 3:18 / 0 / 18 / 70:70 / 5

accuracy of the weapon is 14

The HE kill value is 11 ( first number ), AP kill is zero(second number )

Pentration for HE is 3 cm and for AP it's 18 cm

Heat has zero penetration so no heat ammo for that weapon

apcr is sabot and sabot for this weapon has an 18 pen

Range for both He and AP is 70 ( first number) and sabot is also 70 ( second number )

warhead is 5

As Andy says, more detailed info is found in the "Encyclopaedia Screen" link of the Game Guide and scroll down to the "weapon" block.

Gosh what a great post!

I have a question...

In SP1 you could pretty much tell accuracy and penetration values by comparing the length and diameter of the gun and if the length is 50% or over you have a more powerful and accurate type of gun.

Does that still apply to the accuracy ratings for the weapons in the superior Camo SPWW2 version?

Yup, generally AFAIK accuracy rating is barrel length in diameters divided by four.

5cm L60 PaK/KwK ACC = 60/4 = 15
7.5cm L24 ACC = 24/4 = 6

I'm not too sure about this game, but SPWAW had other things to help out the accuracy, such as the optics ratings for the guns, so I imagine this game does too.

[pdoktar]

Optics ratings for the guns are considered here as fire control and range finder ratings, the bigger the number the better hit chance.

So if you want a tank with an accurate gun, check out these: range finder, fire-control, acc and stabiliser.

Ya the Camo version rocks!
