The maus

Nice way of dodging the argument after getting called out on your lie.

Being able to destroy a tank is not good enough.
Or are you telling me that a T-34 should go down in BR because a Pz III at 1.0 can pen his turret with 37mm APCR?

The Maus is simply not an easy to destroy vehicle.

One time I was sniping in my T32 and shot like 10-15 HVAP rounds against a Maus at some distance, with several penetration. Yet I wasn’t able to destroy him.

Another time I it took me 5 or 6 shots of 100mm APCBC from my Somua SM to take out a Maus at 300m.
Even with an auto-loader that was like 20 seconds, and emptying most of my ready-rounds.

If I wasn’t in a good position to disable him first, it would have been near impossible to kill him.

I’m not saying anybody about moving Maus
My post was response to people crying
“Nothing can pen Maus”
If you pen Maus anywhere on front arc…it means gun is disabled ,it goes down to three crew members and gets minimum repair of 37 + seconds …afterwards 18 seconds reload .

When it comes to 85mm gun (RU), it doesn’t stand a chance frontally as it should’t (-1 B.R. lower).

When it comes to 100mm gun (RU), it has a chance of penning front of the Maus turret at smaller distances. workes better at side.

When it comes to 122mm gun, it has similar situation as 100mm gun (RU).

Ho-Ri Prototype as -1 B.R. tank can’t kill maus frontally as it should be.

Ho-Ri production can pen Maus frontally at smaller distances and workes better at side.

AMX-13 can’t pen maus frontally as it should be (-1 B.R. tank).

Chart 25T is an overtiered tank.

Both guns are realistically not going to penetrate a Maus through the turret.

They can do it.

Yeah but at 100m. When the Maus is also aiming at them.

I find 76mm APHE killing Tiger II Hs with cupola shots more likely to happen than this.

If You drive in front of any vechicle while he is aiming at You then that is Your fault.

Yeah so no one does it, therefore the guns can never pen.

You know, You can first destroy his gun or attack him while he is reloading?

It can’t do anything to the Maus even from the side.

Both can at 0m. Will never happen ingame.

230mm max pen vs 232mm of armor. It’s impossible to pen. Again you can gamble the pixel weakspot with HE but it’s not a realistic shot to hit and is entirely up to luck.

Never said there was a problem with the Maus having strong armor but it’s still a fact they can’t pen it anywhere.

If it was 7.0 it would still have no chance at killing a Maus.

I don’t where this is suppose to lead.
Yes, it’s possible but the likelyhood of that happening is near 0, so what’s the point?

Imagine that any tank could penetrate a Jagdtiger from 100m, if the angle was between 0-5°.
How often would players be in range to do that?

Not impossible due to RNG pen modifiers. But It’s not reliable. At 100m it’s probably a 50% chance or less.

If You get close enough, APCR can pen his side and ammo-rack him.

Of course it will, done that.

Game analysis allows You to simulate it and there is a chance of penning.

AMX-13 can pen his side if he gets close enough, same situation as T-44.

Frontally? It shouldn’t as 7.0 light tank.

So it is possible to pen it, that was the case, not how reliable it is.

The APHE shot is 100% impossible and HE is random damage depending on the pixel it hits.

It is possible, You can even check that in game.

The APCR will most likely not even set of the ammo.

Prove it.

Do it ingame.

Frontally it can’t.

Doesn’t matter if it should be able to or not. That was never the point.

Any tank can get killed by anything if they drop down from above and shoot the roof. Is it possible? Yes. Does it happen? No.

Do it.

Well yeah, they can pen frontally, but so can the Maus.

Because?

This is from protection analysis and this is what will happen in game (sorry, not gonna spend a lot of time just to have 1vs1 fight with a maus in such vechicle.
