Is there a proper way to use the fv4005

I believe you…but this happens also with 88mm guns (as an example) which are also not supposed to only damage an optical module or go trough trucks without making damage…
I dont really know if the stats are correct or not…but

  1. Lots of shots on lots of different guns seem to do much less that it would seem “logical”
  2. It goes both ways
  3. When i fire the gun on FV4005 i am not particularly afraid of the results…(not more than when firing APHE guns)
  4. I do dislike the reload and manoeuvrability…but guess it fits the BR (give or take 0.3)

Basically, the correct way to play it is you simply don’t.

why gajin was nerfed HESH and gajin go reviewed the hesh please.

I’m fed up to the point that when I play this shell I want to kill myself

There is no proper way. Its mean to be a powerful tank destroyer that sacrifices armor, mobility and reload to get to one shot any vehicle on the battlefield, but the thing is, it doesn’t. With proper aim it can one shot consistently just as well as any other gun around its br with like 10x faster reload, so the fact that it isn’t always oneshotting (which it should, even if the spalling doesn’t kill all the crew 20kg of hesh should structurally destroy any vehicle) makes it completely redundant.

you are totally right for example the fv it is slow no armor and we almost never finish in one shot even an average tank is that in real life it was made to destroy is 3 is that in the game we don’t even get a one shot of simple tiger 1. So YEAH GAJIN PLEASE responded to our request and please make the hesh be like 2 ago.

PLEASE IN THE NEXT BIG UPDATE PLEASE and a lot of people want the hesh to go back to how it was before there is no longer anyone who plays the hesh tanks and a lot of people have lost hope that one day they will see the hesh from before again (2 years ago).

Played it twice today and got 4 frags both times, it can do well when in the right spot however such a spot is almost never the reality, nor are you doing the damage you should.

not just destroy, wipe off the face of the earth

To make the matter even worse, you already get strafed by stupid planes before even get to first off your first shot. Even if you don’t die and you lost two crews, and your reload timer is now >1 min, might as well just J out

you’re totally right even the is4 is maus should be pulverized but you think gajin are going to do anything about it?

In theory it would kill the T90 just from cracking the hull out of force

you have right but in the game we can’t kill a tiger 1 xd

I still think and hope that this will be fixed in the next big update. But why the HESH does not have overpressure is for the fv4005 22kg = 65mm ‘overpressure’ only it is too little for what it should be at least 100mm of overpressure. End just what I would like is a lot of people would like it’s the hesh before when we could one shot of simple is2 or tiger 1 or tiger 2 or panther in a single shot





In other words a 15 pound slab of steel traveling through the inside of an enemy tank at over 400 feet per second.

This is for the 76mm gun on the scorpion couldn’t imagine what the 180mm HESH would do.

I think the steel plate will be literally destroyed lol
