My Gripe About M20/Greyhound Small Arms Penetration


Recommended Posts

The MG-42, K98, G43 are NOT going to penetrate m20 or greyhound frontal armor, hatch or not. If you say the bullet enters viewing ports its not going to fly either the reasons are the ports are offset and the driver and radio man has to lean toward the center to use the ports meaning there is room with pretty thick hatch armor in the way. For the greyhound, the guys in the turret are out of the small arms question as the turret has the thickest armor.

The MP-40

Come on guys 9mm? It's not even AP. Go ahead and rule out mp-40 distance shots, You probably couldn't even hit the entire vehicle with a whole clip on an mp-40 over a certain distance let alone the 9mm smg hitting slits would be 1/100 chance and a person being in the way of the tiny hole makes it even slimmer. In the game it's an extremely high chance of hitting someone through armor in the scout cars with the mp-40, that is ridiculous and needs to be changed.

The STG-44 Weaker than the mgs and rifles so it is also out of the question.

The K98 and G43

Nope again, the frontal hatch armor would stop it. hitting the slits would probably go through but the periscope is higher then what the driver looks at which is the bottom half of the periscope so low chance again.

MG-42 / MG-34

Frontal hatch would stop it again.. really starts to degrade over distance especially

 

check the thickness of those hatches!
