Yesterday i shot OSA AKM with my two reliable hesh on CCVL. Twice hit the cabin, twice zero damage at all. So i ask then, why even bother carrying them…
Gaijin really needs to fix HESH again. Its not even a joke. It does not work as HE, even being particularly one. It does not work as AP.
Yet another bug with HESH. lists 4mm fuse sensitivity, but fails to detonate on 4mm armor. Not just that, but when the armor is sloped and the effective armor goes up far above 4mm, it still fails to detonate. Yay ‘features’.
That is because it is stuctural steel which is 0.45ke modifier! There is a lot of suspect issues with armour type in ground tbh, like how HHRA is mostly seen on Russian tanks and for some bizzare reason modern HHRA is worse than standard HHRA. I dont mind HESH not fuzing on 4mm though that is ok. Better to get past skirts if anything.
Which i get it, Thin skinned SPAA, but i legit HAVE to have my Radar up to DO anything, So someone shouldn’t be able to shoot a piece of it 10-15 feet above me and overpressure my entire crew, and not only that NUKE the entire vehicle, Not a single module survived despite that round hitting that far up.
What HE even rivals the FV4005 in explosive mass, that round should be DELETING everything it hits with no Contest, the 4005 should straight up a “FUCK YOU” Canon.
I mean even the 165 HESH performs better than the 4005s for some reason.
