Summary	0005465: PM vs SR-1M vs PYa damage

Revision	2020-01-22 03:49 by BlackCokeDown
Description	The PM does too much damage and it effectively defeats the helmets that are supposed to protect them against. I have tried this against the Altyn and the ACH both at 5m, and the PM instantly kills the wearer through the helmet shell. https://youtu.be/G5rUL1itA00 [^] [On that note, I've seen the round for the PM fly way above the sights when aiming at targets beyond 50m, and I have had to aim for the upper torso to land a shot on their head) Additionally, the SR-1M performs better against armour than the PYa right now. But according to GOST R 50744-95 and GOST 34286-2017, the 7N21 round is actually the more capable AP round, with Br 3 protecting against 7N21 and Br 2 protecting against 7N28 (Br 1-6 != class 1-6). It would be great if this was addressed such that 7N21 is capable of penetrating IIIA/class 2 armour just like 7N28.
