This explains clearly that there is a problem with HESH today.

I hope gajin will review their hesh because today it is really bad. If your more information on the hesh of the fv as are explosive because before the fv had 28.9kg is that today it has 21.76.

his video a little near the middle (6min50 to 9min50) literally shows that there are problems with the hesh even the youtuber at the end of the video says it https://youtu.be/nlid-Um5Pdo?si=zNDzHUSFIlXMSaIp
gajin please do something.
There is no point in repeating the same request/complaint every day…
FV4005 is not a great vehicle…but not as bad as some claim…it is a Tank Destroyer with slow reload…many like it in game.
As to HESH…i personally don’t feel it is as bad as claimed…but i guess it can be “modified”…just be careful what you wish for…improvements on weapons effectiveness may cause increases in BR for the vehicles using them…
(I really don’t know it is a fix…)
well just what we would like is what is not buggy is what is overpressure because in game the overpressure of the hesh is random in any case whether the fv4005 goes to 6.3 or 7.3 it changes nothing as long as I play better games in 8.0. Then also 22kg for the fv4005 I find that a bit tight for what it should be it should have something like 25kg or 28.9 like before but above all 22kg = 65mm ‘overpressure’ I find that much too tight. but otherwise it’s all
just look the video that I sent it explains everything
the fv4005 has ~22kg of tnt like in the games or more? Because 5 years ago the fv4005 had 28.9kg.
No one has really answered the OP question tho’
Of course there is a proper way to use the FV4005 - that way is to leave it in the hanger and never bother with it again.

it’s too easy to say this and play it knowing that before this droll tanks to play.
Aim to overpressure by hitting plates above the enemy roof armor.
It shouldn’t have to, but Gaijin can’t comprehend how much damage that gun SHOULD do.
even when touching plates that are supposed to do overpressure, it doesn’t work
yeah, cause Hesh is wack
gaijin forgot the HE part of HESH
(out of TNTe alone it should overpressure better than ANY 152/155mm round in game (21.76KG TNTe Vs 14.8KG TNTe on the Type 99s L15A2, which is iirc the highest TNTe HE shell in game outside the Sturmtiger)
If it overpressured it would be sorted, but we can’t have HESH we only have SH
What HESH does IRL, thats a lot of internal damage
Here a Centurion was hit by 183mm HESH at a testrange

the fv4005 had 22kg of tnt which seems quite small to me because before it had 28.9kg?
hen 22kg = 65mm of overpressure which does not exist with the hesh and for the type 99 15kg = 64mm that seems strange to me. Only 1mm difference for 7kg more TNT is it shameful? What do you think about it?
Another issue is that spalling generated from the 183mm doesn’t go deep enough. They need to add the same buff missiles got with their damage.
For example, hitting the King Tiger’s front plate with the 183mm HESH shell will usually only kill the Driver and Bow Machinegunner. It should reach significantly further and kill all the crew, at least.

its got 21.76kg TNTe now
i don’t care much for the missing pen it should have, i just want the HE part to work, i shot a Tiger 2 on the mantlet the other day and it did nothing, a 155mm HE would have overpressured the roof
its shameful considering it should have around the same performance as the American 100lb bomb, Russian 50kg, or Japanese 60kg in terms of Overpressure
that has happened to me so many times and it drives me up the wall
