Have you ever used the AHEAD round?
It literally only works if the target is flying towards you, if they fly away or even tangent to you good luck doing anything to them, AHEAD is certainly not as good as HE-VT
Literally just not true, AHEAD has 40 ish mm of pen and no explosive and if youre smart youre taking the AHEAD and the 40 rounds of APDS so it doesnt matter if your APHE has 10mm extra pen than other 35mm APHE cause you wont be using it
Wrong, the damage range of AHEAD is a fan while HE-VT is a circle, they have essential differences and the explosion range of HEVT is significantly larger than AHEAD
Dont forget that ahead is not a proxy fuse round the fuse range is set when the round leaves the gun so if the target makes any course corrections they will 75% of the time not take damage, it can basically only shoot down targets flying in straight lines
Ok, so you clearly don’t understand how either of the rounds work. you’re enirely wrong.
The XM822 detonates and all of the preformed fragments eject in a ring, there is almost no parallel fragmentation.
AHEAD rounds have their fragments at the front of the round and eject in a cone.
Apart from that they both use pre-formed tungsten fragments.
You clearly don’t understand what I’m saying
He either is trolling or is just an idiot. Either way, no need to pay any attention to him.
