Military Ground Vehicles of Your Nation [NO FUN] Mark IX

[Imperializt Russia]

There's a reason for that.

Not hanging twice the length of the vehicle over the length of the vehicle is probably that reason.

The biggest problem is that Ford's vehicle won't be able to traverse much more than a very gentle incline without rapidly burying its gun in the ground. Gun balance and total gun weight problems are also likely.

[Gallia-]

I foresee catastrophic gun balance problems to the point of the entire vehicle being unstable.

but muh wide tracks

Asking out of curiosity, what sort of attack would result in this level of catastrophic damage?

This is a destroyed Jagdtiger, which has sustained damage to blow off its entire heavily-armoured superstructure leaving only the front face, and also apparently dislodged the gun from its mount.

poor thing

no one should cry when you put down a maneater rly

Well my hull is like twice the size of that little thing and most of the gun's weight is over the hull. That should count for something.

Inclines shouldn't be much of a problem with elevation

[EsToVnIa]

i mean you still can't really climb up anything

[Fordorsia]

3m high 30 degree slope

[EsToVnIa]

bc it's going to end right there

And if your tank rocks forward ever so slightly, as one might expect when traversing potentially rough ground...

What I'm saying is that is the max it can do. How often does a tank need to go over sloped as large as that?

[Padnak]

So all I need to defeat the Ford army is a bunch of large dirt piles

neat

Make sure to put them in a circle and put some roofing over your head, maybe a few strong planks of wood in case they call in a sword bomb on your position

Since it's a popular meme around here apparently, guess what caused this tank to be destroyed:

[Imperializt Russia]

I only asked because I was aware of simply how heavy the Jagdtiger superstructure was, and was impressed that an attack could cause the entire thing to fly off the tank. And also that I didn't know what that attack might have been.

Don't care, please answer

You can't even afford dirt let alone the shovels required to make piles

Well you see, the wheels fell off

of course he can't, hes a anarchy which implys he doesnt have money

[Padnak]

I've got money! It's just spent on my over bloated internal security apparatus and decent wages lol

[Imperializt Russia]

Would anyone know how to track down the explosive fill weight of the British 20pdr APCBC round? I'm really struggling to find it, I suspect because it was hardly issued.

I should have that info at home. I'll take a look in a few hours when I get off work.

Sorry for the double post.
The answer for your question is 0.00 grams of high explosive. It didn't have any.
That might explain why you can't find anything online.

The British and their solid shot weirdness. Always having to do it in a dumb way that no one else does.

They were clever enough to realize the bursting charge didn't work properly.

[Gallia-]

One of the few British inventions not tainted by Anglo self-destructive wiles.

[Dostanuot Loj]

The British and their solid shot weirdness. Always having to do it in a dumb way that no one else does.

You see, the British came to two conclusions:
1: The bursting charge was ineffective.
2: A non-bursting projectile penetrated more.

So they said "Why would we put useless HE in a shell to make it penetrate less?" and decided not to.

Was this the determining factor behind the 2pdr's main/only AT round being solid shot, or was this decision postwar?
