Did the 76.2mm rounds today.
Did you know that East China had a long-rod APFSDS round for their modernized Walker Bulldogs?
I didn't.
I also discovered that tungsten is almost the same density as depleted uranium, a little heavier in fact.
I knocked out the 75mm German WW2 tank guns too. They were very considerate using the same projectile in three different length cases. Just had to change the velocity to get the stats.
The 75mm HEAT round they came up with in '38 is truly pathetic. At least by modern standards.
The Hl.Gr.38B only does 6d+1(10) cr ex with a linked 6dx3 cr ex.
The improved Hl.Gr.38C does 9d(10) cr ex with a linked 6dx3 cr ex.
6d+1(10) penetrates a mere 220 DR, just a tad over 3" RHAE.
9d(10) will get past 315 DR, or 4.5" RHAE.
While that's adequate for early WW2, I'd gotten used to Twilight and the M456's 6dx5(10) cr ex linked 6dx3 cr ex. That punches 1,050 DR or 15" of RHAE.
