FPPlayer 117 Report post Posted January 18 It is about the PaK 43/L71 cannon. The Waffelträger and the Nashorn have the same gun and same ammo. I noticed when I'm shooting at IS-2's that I easily manage to pen the turret with the Waffenträger but struggel to do the same with the Nashorn. Even on the Test Range I had similar experiences Protection Analysis is too flawed to give a satisfying awnser. Do someone of you have the same impression?

Maybe the height of the vehicle affecting the angle of the shot? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Thodin 2,301 Report post Posted January 18 One of the content partners said something like there are minor adjustments of vehicle performance according to their BR/rank. So just having the exact same weapon system in different vehicles doesn't mean it performs exactly the same way. For lower ranked vehicles it might be toned down. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Waffentrager is really short and the Nashorn is really tall. It's just your angle that makes one easier to use than the other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KH_Alan 4,694 Report post Posted January 19 (edited) It shouldn't matter. Even if height difference is 2 m at 1000m angle difference is 0,11°, at 500 m 0,22°. Edited January 19 by KH_Alan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think he is talking about how the shots connect. So it's probably not an ammunition issue but related to aiming and where the shell actually strikes the IS-2.

The only problem i see is that the gun on both has the same stats. Even the Ammo is the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
