The AG-30M are the two cannons on the side of the BMPT hull. Right now they only have the VOG-30 shell which is an HE shell. But they should also have the option to take the VUS-30 shell which is a smoke grenade.
The size of each shells smoke screen would be rather small, but the high rate of fire would make up for it. I also think it is needed after the constant nerfs to the BMPT via BR raises.
No. I can already see BMPT player spam them enough to make players leave the game (Inculding their own teamamtes if the BMPT player is just a troll). This could become very toxic
I don’t think it is a very good idea, seen how BMP-2M player and BMPT(2002) player uses it, poping 100 smokes in less than 10sec would destroy anyones FPS’s.
And if MBT’s smokes are between 66 and 80+ mm smokes, a 30mm wouldn’t be very useful.
For the effect, I’m basing myslef to the Arcus VOG-17 TPM grenade, that is as well a 30mm smoke grenade for the AGS-17 grenade launcher (the AG-30M are from the AGS-30 which is an upgraded variant of the AGS-17, using all the same amo’s.)
In this document from Arcus.CO, it is explained that those are used as training shells, to show where the shell fired is landing.
See in this video, at 0:50, you will see the impact of a quick firing of 4-5 of them by an AGS-30, and I’ m assuming smokes shells since as we can see the white smoke coming out.
