Panzerschreck Penetration values

Post by Wiedrock »

This US intel/trial report suggests, that the penetration was quite a bit larger than the 120mm currently used in game.

So either 150, 200 ....or 175 (inbetween).
Not sure if Soviets used face hardened steel at all, didn't they do all the way cast iron? Should be easy 200mm if so.

Someone sent me this link which may be relevant: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panzerschreck

Different angles seem to have a big impact, but Jim would be the one to speak to why it is what it is in the game.

Yes, Wikipedia is using this sheet as one of its Sources.
All other penetration values from what I know are point blank (<10meters) values at 90° ....or 0° angle of impact.
