Summary

0005446: M3 MAAWS Zero is only acccurate for HEAT rounds

Description

FV441 HE and FV502 HEDP roudns for M3 MAAWS will undershoot zero.
Zero is only accurate for FV751 HEAT.
Zero is inaccurate for both iron sights and M3 scope (rhs_optic_maaws).

Fix:
1. Make optic mode able to be changed. Clearly show which optic mode is selected. Seems like there are configs for this but unused.

2. Zero should detect round loaded and adjust zeroing based on that OR all rounds should have same ballistics.

Steps To Reproduce

1: Load FV502 HEDP into M3 MAAWS.
2: Fire at target 400 meters away with 400 meter zero.
3: Notice HEDP round land short of target

Additional Information

Using TC 3-22.84 published july 2019 as source.

The ingame M3 MAAWS features the Picatinny fire control
device (PCFD) for ranging and mounting of the telescopic sight.
The PCFD features adjustments for range AND ammunition type.
The open sight also feature ammunition selection and ingame the model even clearly shows the the FV501 HEDP is selected.But that zero is not used.
