| Summary | 0006650: Ah-64 Apache M230 gun has too little penetration | ||||||||||||
| Description | The Apaches gun seems to only penetrate around 25mm RHA when it should have closer to 50mm penetration. Even the Ah-1z guns penetrate more at 36mm . https://youtu.be/RCGKUc7E8Rg [^] | ||||||||||||
| Steps To Reproduce | 1. Place a millitary Cargo tower into the Editor and shoot the walls with the AH-64. The tower has around 30mm of armor but the apache can not penetrate it. 2. Compare it to the Ah-1z which can penetrate those walls. 3. See video | ||||||||||||
| Additional Information | https://www.gd-ots.com/munitions/medium-caliber-ammunition/30x113mm/ [^] Lists apache gun penetration at least 25.4 mm RHA at 50degrees which is about 40mm RHA flat penetration. | ||||||||||||

"25.4 mm RHA at 50degrees which is about 40mm RHA flat penetration." it is closer to 30mm - 33.16. Are you actually calculating 40 degree angle? |

" Yes it should be 40 degrees it seems. 33mm rha would match what is presented here https://ndiastorage.blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net/ndia/2003/gun/roth.pdf#page=10 [^] where they seem to have about 1.5 inches or 38mm of penetration. |

ah, I see, they are taking plate at 90 degrees as their point of reference. Some of the military materials are treating 0 degree value when plate is lying flat, not when it is standing at 90 degree from the ground |
