What's with the raised roof of Strv 122?

[Gallia-]

Applique for bomblet and EFP protection.

Designing a 158mm gun tank.

Gun barrel is still too thin. That's like a 90 mm gun at best. Probably not even that.

Yeah just did the calculation, i need to make it 6 pixles

More than that, because the barrel isn't made of tin foil.

The metal itself is quite thick and adds at least an inch on all sides, so that's at least two additional pixels if you're using an inch scale. Probably at least three to account for the barrel shroud.

So 10 ish?

Around there, I'd guess.

Should i increase turret height accordingly or is it good

[The Akasha Colony]

Should i increase turret height accordingly or is it good

I can't tell because I don't know what sort of gun depression you want, where the trunnions are, or how long the breech etc. is.

But at this point, it's probably not necessary unless you want extreme gun depression or have a very long breech.

I'd say extreamly gun depression but I'm not married to it. Also what's the max mm for a revolver loder

My unlearned 15 year old ass coming out, what are trunnions

[Austrasien]

Where the gun pivots.

[The Akasha Colony]

I'd say extreamly gun depression but I'm not married to it. Also what's the max mm for a revolver loder

There is no random physical limit at which suddenly a revolver mechanism stops working.

But there is no reason for a tank gun to use it, it's an extreme waste of space and mass and obturation is generally more complicated in larger guns with greater power.

The mounting points for the gun, where it pivots when elevated or depressed.

Thanks for the help.
What kind of penetration would I expect from a 158mm tandem warhead atgm.

At most probably only marginally better than that available from existing 150-152mm class ATGMs like Kornet and Khrizantema. 6-8mm additional diametre isn't really gonna lead to big jumps in pen power

True, but tandem warhead (think of a guided rpg 29 but guided) Pretty good at extreme ranges.

Kornet and Krizantema are already tandem-warhead weapons. The first precursor charge isn't often meant to be as penetrating as the main warhead, as its designed to be a cheap trigger of enemy ERA first.

Also, HEAT warheads (whether guided/un-guided, rocket and/or gun-fired) have the same penetration power regardless of firing range.

1, Ahh was not awear the kornet was tandem.
2. I understand the principle of a Tandem. Smaller first charge to trigger era, main charge after it.
3. I know heat always has the same pen power, Guided is just more accurate and allows for fire on move.
Question Are there any Fire and forget or infrared homing gun fired anti tank missiles?

[Taihei Tengoku]

Modern Western infantry ATGMs (Javelin, Spike, LMAT, maybe MMP?) are infared homing.

[Chinevion]

new barrel
Need to make barrel evaluator smaller.

Any tank launched ones?

[Fordorsia]

Crew of two, 20mm stehl all round, a 20mm and two ATGMs. How did I do

I think I might be able to add another crewman as a dedicated gunner. Worth it? Or is the Commander fine with using the turret as his primary sight and just so happening to shoot it too?

No more than 5 degrees for the ATGMS when aiming forward, about 7 degress for the cannon. 15 degrees aiming off to the side.
