Denis1973 Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Are there any data on how many rounds of different calibers (or at least 75, 88, 122 mm) required to destroy a wall and a whole buildings of different types? What building is more tough? Modular or individual? One store or multistory? Is any matter in "wooden" vs "brick" building? AFAIR this data was very determined in good all CMBB times. What is for now? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A co Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 You might have to set up a test to find out. I do know that the 'barn' category of buildings is easier to destroy and provides very poor cover for troops inside it. Also, different types of 75mm guns, for example, have different amounts of explosive in their HE shells, so that is another factor to consider. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
womble Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Modular are tougher. Larger is tougher. A co is correct that different models of any given calibre might have different HE effectiveness. The German KwK42 l/70 had unimpressive HE performance, compared to the shorter barrelled 75s that were its contemporaries, and the 17lbr (a 76mm gun) had worse HE than the Russian 76. I've not seen anything about whether the longer 88mms were less useful as HE-chuckers than the shorter ones, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
