HE is very wrongly coded, and heres some examples of what HE did irl!
75 m4a4 sherman aphe
SU/ISU 152s ir
tank is GONE
122 he shell to a panther turret
heres ap 17 pnder (ty flipallthetables) example just to prove how deadly kinetic energy can be if smtn bounces, or is hit repeatidly
3 75mm he shells to this thing
heres what happens in wt(and ill use panther G since it has the most armor)
heres what happens if you hit a t34 ingame with any he shell, ill use the m55 for a perfect example
no damage. when irl the tank would be REDUCED to atoms or half of it gone.

This image is very well known and it literally has “17 pounder” written on it.
Like yeah, HE is strong, 75mm M48 HE could disable a Tiger with a lucky/good hit, but c’mon.

yea at the small holes. not the giant chunk missing
Yeah, which, again, is well documented to have been caused by repeated 17 pounder AP hits.

yes very strong, even wot knows HE should do some damage. if not killing the tank consideribly weakining the armores structural integrity

that just strengthens my point that kinetic energy should be doing alot more than in does ingame considering its a lower caliber. just proof gaijin doesnt know what they are doing lol, thanks for the correction aswell.

given that the most destroyed tank in your photos is still more then half there, you are objectively wrong.
if HE actually worked the way it does IRL everyone would just camp corners cause one hit and the half the crew is unconscious the new meta would be howitzers like vidar and panzer haublitz
to much realism kills the game
this was ment to refernce the t34 thing with the m55, should clarify that better
tbf, you say that like they arent already some of the most meta vehicles at their br
i unfortunatly agree with you on this
yeah wanna make them more meta ? its hard enough to push a howitzer camping as is
tell me. do you honestly think a t34 should be surviving a direct m55 hit?

no but it shouldnt survive half the rounds shot at it but it does cause gaijin doesnt model armor quality and a good bit of volumetric

also agreed, the turret cheeck eating the round and the breech eating every explosive gas shouldnt be a thing. irl the crew would die to explosive gas pressure, if not all atleast the gunner loader, and spall
more talking about drivers port its absurd on the T34

YES iv had a t34 survive my 4k pound bomb because guesss what. it hit the driver poirt
when irl it often was shot off due to poor welding
ive seen it bounce long 88s
