MMW MkV thread. It's been fun.

[Yes Im Biop]

Won't penetrate any modern top attack composite.

Sauce?

The round's width is thinner than the armor its trying to kill, Its mass isnt enough, and the Gun is capable of running for about 5 seconds before emptying the entire reserve

[Spreewerke]

I present to you this.

Quoting my bottom-pager (with some editing to get to the best part, of course) because, bottom paging sucks. It's almost as bad as paging that guy who lost his bike.

Won't penetrate any modern top attack composite.

Sauce?

Armor penetration
69mm at 500 meters
38mm at 1000 meters

SADARM
US
155mm cannon
35 Ghz MMW Sensor (Active and Passive), 8-14μ IR sensor
130m (est) 165m (est) P3I
135mm RHA penetration @ 100 meters
INA
24km
Limited Production

Motiv-3M
Russia
300mm rocket
2 color IR sensor
100m
(est) 70-mm RHA penetration @ 150 meters and 30°
Copper penetrator, Ball slug
90km
Full Production

Modern top attack armour such as AMAP-R provides protection against SADARM, or at least Motiv-3, which renders modern main battle tanks mostly immune to GAU-8 gunfire.

You'll still fuck up optics and guns, but that can be done with a 20mm Vulcan.

That could probably be done with that cool 15mm FN or whatever.

1) Not an aircraft gun.
2) It could probably be armoured against. It's still more .50 BMG than 20mm Vulcan.

1) He's talking about mounting it on a tank. As a tank destroyer.
2) Yeah, but I'd imagine that it's sufficient for any current RL tank.

Mostly intended it for Rule of Cool, it would never see actually use in a war RP, just be something fun to design

That still doesn't make it a tank destroyer, since it couldn't destroy tanks.

30mm getting gun for spewing explosive ammo. That would suppress any infantry I know of...

Yeah, but so does the Leatherneck's 20mm Coaxial

How about turning entire SPAAG formations on infantry? Dear god, the screams...

Well, that's the Anti-Air Loggerhead's main defensive tactic against infantry



4 fully automatic 50mm flak cannons... must be damned painful

It looks rather small for a 50mm.

Maybe, I didn't really bother too much with scale on the turret

any particular reason for the downwards-pointing fume extractor

Optics and what-not tend to be armored against .50-ish ammunition at a minimum.

I mean it would work well but something about the 30mm gatling gun speaks to me, plus it could do service as a SPAAG

I liked the look of the Abrams turret and the Merkava chassis. Decided to slap them together, given that I'm not overly familiar with tanks. Personally, I like the result.

Liked the look. Is there something wrong with that, functionally?

rly? o:

i thot they were just armoured against shell fragments, hence the whole shooting small arms at vision blocks and sights on tanks as a last resort type thing

ofc that is a last resort type thing so yeah youre probably right you know more about tanks >:

So. . . eh. . . quick question. I'm currently rethinking my gyrojet rifle, and I was wondering something. Exactly how much damage would a 13mm self-contained, self-propelled rocket fired from a gyrojet rifle actually do?

At short ranges it wouldn't be able to do much damage (no enough velocity) at medium and long ranges I would imagine it would be rather devastating.

You could theoretically make a gyrojet rifle with higher launch velocity. The biggest problem would be accuracy; the originals had little. (Oh, and the gyrojets did accelerate really fast; 1250 fps by 30 feet is good enough to hurt at basically any range you should actually be at.

That's the weakness of the gyrojet, sadly. I use them for longer range battles, such as in deserts and whatnot, along with use by snipers. Erm, exactly how devastating are we talking, here?

The originals had pretty decent accuracy (for what it was: a mini-rocket) until the manufacturing process of the rockets went all screwy. Then they sucked. Hard.

Eh, from what I've gathered, it was a matter of poor technological availability. They were too complex for the sixties, and suffered from poor quality, coming out of manufacturing.
