How far is your tank?

300, yards away.

I'm well within kill range. It should be defeated. You stated you have 150mm RHA armor. RPG-29 penetrates 750.

plus the uranium lining with kevalar and that is with steel as well, so no not really. but still did some damage.

whats is your total RHA value on that tank? On your stat block?

vs KE(MM)
Front turret: 180-240
Glacis: 210
Lower front hull: 180 (7) Turret: 190-260

vsCE(MM)
Glacis: 210
Lower front hull: 180

this was the origanal, hold on

well, that is the same as the SOL versions except, it has layers of 2 inch DU and inbetween is steel,

the weopon impacted the ERA, went through hit the steel, hit 3 layers of DU and then hit another 5 inchs of steel, and then ramed into 4 layers of DU.

Just answer the RHA Value.

im not even sure i thought i wouldnt have to worry about these little details. i will in a minute.

i gtg and type a report right now, i will be on tonight or tomarrow.

What he wants is RHAe, essentially you need to calculate the equivalent amount of rolled homogeneous steel that your combination of materials can provide against his round, which he has said is a tandem warhead RPG-29. ERA which you have stated is on your tanks is one of the best ways to reduce penetration of a High-Explosive Anti-Tank warhead. Unless you gave a bunch of complex calculations for RHAe performance against certain rounds when you introduced your tank, I think you can get away with saying the tank was only disabled (mobility kill) or heavily damaged, since many real life anti-armor weapons would not have anything close to 100% 1 hit kill capability against NS tanks. Some modern real life tanks with ERA have near 2000mm RHAe against HEAT rounds, so its not crazy to think an rpg-29 is only going to damage or disable the tank that it hit.

OCC: Good, but its an upgraded T-62. If that weapon can destroy T-80 and T-90, even with his upgrades, it should score a kill.

okay well say you hit my tracks and im immobile i dont want precise calculations.

The RPG 29 could not destroy T-80 or T-90 that had ERA in one hit to the frontal armor. The 2000mm figure i stated was for an upgraded T-72 and the RPG-29 is only capable of penetrating around 750 mm after going thru era

The RPG 29 could not destroy T-80 or T-90 that had ERA in one hit to the frontal armor.

Sources would say you are wrong.

From the source, that your source got its information from:

Each weapon was fired 5 times at each target, for a total of 20 shots per weapon. The total number of shots fired during the trials thus exceeded 150.

The trials yielded the following outcome:

* ATGLs
o T-90: RPG-29 produced a total of 3 penetrations.
No other RPG rounds could penetrate even the stripped target.
o T-80U: RPG-29 penetrated 3 times with ERA, all 5 times without ERA.
Of all other grenades, one PG-7VR penetrated the stripped target.
* ATGMs
o T-90: No ATGMs could penetrate the ERA-equipped target. One Kornet ATGM penetrated the stripped target.
o T-80U: 2 Kornet ATGMs penetrated the ERA-equipped target, all 5 penetrated the stripped target.
No other ATGMs could penetrate.

I had a different source, but okay.

can we get back to the thread, i will say you took out my treads.
