    @domokun, no, I didnt bother putting in the ballistic cap because it doesnt help much if at all in penetration

    Tovarishch: Oh, is that the ballistic cap then? I might've been mistaken lol

    @domoKun not exactly, when an apfsds round hits armour, if the tip of the shell is pointed, it increases the amount of the shell that is just bounces off the armour without penetrating. this was a problem with early russian apfsds, because they had their penetrator right at the tip of the shell, and when it struck an angled surface it would often bounce off.

    Shouldn't the penetrator be sharper and not round?
