Which shows stugs, with the 75L24 HE chucker trying to engage char-b at 1250 metres, where the AP round has no chance of penetration. So as it has an HE shell with a useful HE pen, it uses that as the ammo evaluation is that this shell (mix of WH size and HE-AP value) at this range is a better bet. Might blow a track off.

The P3 HE shell is not worth firing at armour (unless it runs out of AP when it will) so it fires AP at that range.

Just as I said in the first reply, so not a bug.

Cheers

If the AP shot has no chance of piercing the enemy armour, then HE will be fired to preserve the AP ammo loadout (it may well break the track). This is not a "bug".

Maybe you right but it occurs even when a low armored unit is aimed (say frontal armor 1 or 2) and the firing unit use shell with warhead of 3 or more...

Nevertheless thanks for reply
