We are looking at something a little better than M829A1, so a little over 600mm of pen. 620 if i had to make a bet (in game)

Get the hell out of here with your bull****
They haven’t done anything about this report, so I guess they just don’t care?
it should be one of a few shells that should be able to pen ERA blocks. But that mechanic isnt modeled

Well, i guess they will look at it with the giant Cr2 lookout

Modelling it would be hard on the game engine, all the possible polygons crumbling ect…
Yeah… but they’ve done nothing to counter its loss. Like reducing ERAs effectiveness or increase ERA perforating shells pen by a flat amount to compensate.
yea…
I was just mocking and paraphrasing the announcement made by Gaijin to the players.
They either “don’t care” or “believe it shouldn’t ,” this kind of situation occurs nonetheless.
Ik, and i said that as a joke. They stick too much to their beliefs
I would consider it a miracle ,they were to formally issue a response announcement.

They have now committed to a statement (though 50/50 chance if we actally ever get one) , but like we saw in the past year, they go out of their way to find tiny pieces of information that shut down anything for Britain. Like the BAE EAP. Even when evidence was found to satisify their requirements, it was shut down.
Im doubting CR2 will get any fixes and all reports will be picked apart with no evidence as to why and without any sources. Only, “we say no”
EAP might have been fitted with RWR, possibly a working radar, and other systems from Tornado → It was never wired to actually mount live hardpoints. Nor was it ever meant to. EAP is a aerodynamic test bed, so I totally agree it shouldn’t be in the game. It’s an unequipped civilian jet pretty much
While I don’t disagree with your assessment, I’d have much rathered a homegrown jet than a South African Gripen. That said beggars can’t be choosers.

100%. Having an All British Lineup feels really weird, sticking a SA jet in there out of the blue. It’s a welcome addition, and I can slap a few RAF roundels on it to make it look better, but its still odd.
That said, EAP isn’t a combat jet or was ever planned to be. We would have been way better off with a Eurofighter DA.2 or something similar.

700mm RHA penetration probably means 150mm plate at an extremely high angle.
The penetration for M829A1 in the document lines up close enough to what M829A1 is in game. So it’s likely 60deg penetration.
That is RHAe
So I was reading the Wikipedia article on the 32 pdr and apparently a mosquito was armed with one.
“At least one 32-pdr was developed as an anti-tank gun on a wheeled carriage and a single example using a novel form of muzzle brake was installed in a de Havilland Mosquito FB Mk. XVIII as an up-gunned version of the ‘Tsetse’, in place of the 57 mm 6-pounder Molins gun. While flight trials did not take place until after the war had ended, the aircraft flew and the gun fired without problems.[4]”
Am I reading this right or can we get a 94mm armed mosquito in game?
