Unit 007, AMX 13/90, still has an APCR of 0, which is a problem since it carries mostly sabot rounds for use against afv's.

Narwan

I think there's been a misunderstanding

Unit 007, AMX 13/90, still has an APCR of 0 becasue it's the 1967- 1982 version with the 22 HEAT ammo. Unit 008 is the 1982 - 1990 version with 15 sabot and 7 HEAT. The Panhard EBR 90 uses the same gun and also is HEAT equipted.

HOWEVER..... are you talking about the sabot PENETRATION number in the weapons stats of the ammo loadout of the unit?? You write this from the unit perspective but methinks you are actually refering to the weapon ( weapon 126 ) and NOT the ammo load of the unit

Yes, Don, apparently Narwan was mentionning the weapon stats.

I cannot speak on his behalf though, but I've just been checking (there had been some mention of this problem beforehand), and it appears that unit 007 AMX-13/90, running from 1/82 to 12/90 uses {b]weapon 126 "90mm Gun F2[/b] as you said with 12 HE, 7 HEAT and indeed 15 sabot/APCR rounds. (just underlining so there is no confusion on the references)

Now when you look at said weapon, both sabot penetration and sabot range are =0... which should make things difficult for killing anything with it. Incidentally the AP penetration is null as well.

I've fixed that now and will be available in the next upgrade

Thanks, PK, that's indeed the unit 007 I was referring too.
Glad to see it'll be fixed, I like the AMX13/90 a lot!

Why some vehicles or units are not updated with news weapons?

- VCAC Mephisto with HOT-3
- P4 Milan, VCAC Milan, VBL Milan with Milan 3
- Some infantry units with FA-MAS F3

In the GIAT Industry web site, the VBCI seem to be similar to the German Boxer. In SPMBT the VBCI's armor is lower.

Hmm - absolutely right that needs looking into (OOB designer seems not to have updated the later missile user vehicles - the leg milans have M3).
