Bufo Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Situation: an infantry squad (regular training level) walking in the woods finds a Bradley sitting. The Bradley didn't notice them, and will also be unable to note where fire is coming from. So my squad doesn't have any incoming fire whatsoever. Nothing bothers them. Distance: 225M. What do you think, how many PG-7 rounds he needs to fire until finally he was able to hit it? Closest bet gets a free virtual beer! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Codreanu Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Trick question, he misses with every single rocket. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Either: Hits with the third. or (more likely IMHO): Fires one, misses, Bradley 'god-spots' & turns him into mince-meat. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MikeyD Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 I wanted to get a better handle on just how far away 225m is. See attached, from the firer's perspective without 'zoom', and a side view of the scene. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jace11 Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 A bit early for the defense council to be submitting evidence isn't it? We don't even know the outcome yet.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halmbarte Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 If I'm playing the Soviets they need to banzai charge with their RPGs and stab the tank to get a kill. If I'm playing the Americans then RPGs are devastatingly accurate out to 900m. H 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Bradley is under my command then one and done. If the infantry are under my command then they will run out of ammo first. That is based on my experiences in the game - that I remember. I forget all the rest. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bufo Posted September 27, 2021 Author Share Posted September 27, 2021 Okay, so what happened. He was able to hit the Bradley with his 11th shot. That's right, *eleventh* shot. All 10 grenades fired before that missed. No incoming fire, no harassment at all. There's your regular Russian soldier. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not hitting 10 times at 50% or even 70% chance is fine within the world of statistics / probabilities. A bit of an outlier perhaps. Anyway in game the RPG is more accurate under 200m. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lethaface Posted September 28, 2021 Share Posted September 28, 2021 28 minutes ago, Bufo said: You realize the chance to hit goes up with every shot, right? Not necessarily. Are you talking about RL or ingame? Do you realize that if a chance for something is 50% than it doesn't matter how many times you run it, it will remain 50%? For example in roulette the chance for red isn't higher if you just had a black number. Although in RL the operator might learn to aim a bit lower or higher. But between reloading and the rocket standard inaccuracy not sure how much that would mean. In game I don't know if chance gets bigger. But what's your point anyway? you haven't made one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
