Hopes and dreams

Russian Vihkirs are only 800mm penetrating values, yet irl they are rated for 1000mm…
So no, somethings get nerfed for the sake of balance.
I highly doubt it was 1000mm RHA

Its the same like with the stinger debate.
Only cause russian cant develop stuff with this kind of characteristics doesnr mean the west cant.
Gun and the round are from rheinmetall just upscaled
More likely a case of not enough reliable sources for the vikhers bug report it.
The spikes have the same problem
This source doesn’t mention anything about a 1000mm long penetrator nor a 1,800m/s velocity. The former is physically impossible in any case: the standard established by NATO for 140mm ammunition was for two-piece ammo - one part 1000mm in length, the other 500mm in length. So a 1000mm long penetrator isn’t fitting anywhere lol.
You think your sources for the RUAG 140 will hold up against something that’s actually in production? That doesn’t make much sense, this is all hopes and dreams.
And I mean if it is the case, then the CATTB and Object 195 will have the best point black penetration values in the game for high caliber Cold War prototypes, It would be chefs kiss if Gaijin implemented non formulated penetration values for them.
Sounds like a you problem
The round cannon and tank are in the swiss Museum, literaly anyone can go there
I told you the calculated penetration values the way gajin implemented all apfsds.
What u do out of that is a you problem.
Cant say anything about those, i dont know enough about them.
I am only talking abiut the factual stuff we know aboutbthe leo 140mm
They use the Lanz-Odermatt’s formula.
Sounds like an eyesight issue for you, champ. Here, I even labelled it for you:
Still no source for a 1000mm long penetrator, either? Or is the source really just your hopes and dreams?
I am aware, which was used in the calculation
This?
How about you read what it says:
It is claimed tungsten penetrators up to 1m in length can be fired at around around 1,800m/s
This little tidbit only puts forth a hypothetical. Nothing to suggest it was ever actually accomplished. And again, 140mm ammunition was two-piece (you’ve attached a source for this as well lol) - with one part 1,000mm in length, the other being 500mm. A 1,000mm penetrator isn’t fitting anywhere.
Here is a source for the 140mm being in two parts:
Spoiler
You did something wrong then, it’s comes out to about 805mm of penetration. The rod has a length 1000mm and has a diameter of 26 a frustum of about 80mm at a velocity of 1800m/s
That doesn’t even give you 1000mm at point blank range.
I’m of the opinion that Gaijin will just balance these higher caliber tanks with a number they see fit, it’s exactly what they did with the 292.
Calculation done by Dragoon whose suggestion you praise yourself in your high caliber thread.
You have some values wrong like the diameter
It does come around at like 960ish, thats why i say close to 1000mm all the time i am aware its not the exact number but easier to say
French sources are pretry useless when kobody else csn check them.
I send more then enough stuff.
It stays a you problem
Too stupid to use google translate?
Like what? You have provided no evidence the rod used by the Swiss is 1 metre in length and fired at a velocity of 1800m/s.
