but it looks like germans used FlakPanzer's were used to cover HQs and strategical points instead of supporting tanx on battlefield.

Yes, they did. In the early stages of war they only had some regular cars upgraded with machineguns for air protection. But then after inviting the real Flakpanzers end of 1943 they planned to have one platoon of them in every staff unit of the Panzerregiment.

Come on! Some Flakpz 38(t) had to be put in "regular" action! Confused
What about Allied Air Superority? The PZ needs help on the field!
Please! I love em' so much! Crying or Very sad



And yes!
The G-43 is gone. Crying or Very sad
Should be lot of them hanging around. Espescially the Snipers should have them ( at least the SS )

German panzershrecks and panzerfausts are not very effective in this "total realism mod"... my shreck round bounces off front of churchhill tank at 65m (2 times)... it has range of 150 m and 200mm pentration
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panzerschreck (churchill front armor at most 102 mm) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Churchill_tank

Moreover, fausts are now ONLY effective against vehicles!? how is that realistic... could penetrate from 150mm to 200mm of armor depending on version... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panzerfaust#Panzerfaust_150_and_250

Lastly, I had a flame halftrack that flamed a stuart light tank 9 times and not one crew member even wounded... thank God is AI or else my track would been done!

Besides these, the sounds are very cool and I think the infantry teams are much better balanced.

Hedges13,

that's german data.
soviet, finnish tests showed like 100mm penetration and 100m effective range.

Quote:

why did u come to such conclusion?

Quote:

german data again....

it was virtually impossible to burn WW2 tank(built after 1938) with flamethrower/molotov if it was buttoned and in order.

in my GCs as allies, Fausts/PzF/RPzB were real threat to my tanx. But not overdominating like it is usually in CC. Stop thinking of Faust/PzF/RPzB as ultimate AT source but as last ditch AT weapon and u'll c that they r pretty effective if u use them rite.

Btw germans themselves didnt really think too good about Inf AT weapons, they relied on ATGs for AT defence.

well they did, especially when unit was stationed next to factory or had capital repair workshop.
examples of moding in Norm (just from top of my head):
12.SS-PzD transformed 4 of their PzIVH to AA tanx installing 2cm FlaKVierling instead of tank turret.
it was pretty common practice to remove muzzle breaks from PaK39 in PLD.

But why didn't they do anything with PzIVC they had in 21Pz, u ask?
1)They just couldn't install KwK40 in PzIVC turret. If u mean new gun.
2)They were awaiting for beeing reequipped to PzIVH. If u mean additional armor.
During spring PLD gave all it's PzIVG and some H to 21Pz as they received new ones. In early June big lot of PzIVH came to 21Pz so they've traded their Somua's and Hotchkiss'es in II./22.PzR and crews went to train. In July it was awaited that another shipment will be commited and they would replace PzIVC to PzIVH but reality messed all the plans and in June 6th they had to enagage enemy with what they had on hands.

I have found through all versions so far, the german 20mm is a truely awsome weapon, to strong?

I always loose with tehtrah's,i lost some shermans!,and killed some shermans, yes even front on, takes a few minutes though....

20mm taking out shermans...think about it, front on at 250m....

never experienced KO with frontal shots with 2cm or 3.7cm Flaks actually...
pic shows 2 3.7cm Flak37 fired some 20-30 shells at Sherman III at some 150m. Immob Sherman and incap 1man. Tank didn't KO AAG with one shot...

Dima do you know if this is true/accurrate?

"The Canadian forces that landed on Juno Beach faced 11 heavy batteries of 155 mm guns and 9 medium batteries of 75 mm guns, as well as machine-gun nests, pillboxes, other concrete fortifications, and a seawall twice the height of the one at Omaha Beach. The first wave suffered 50% casualties, the second highest of the five D-Day beachheads."

from wikipedia

Cause Juno seems like the easiest beach for Allies not hardest in game.

The german 20mm 115 cal ver was able with SP Ammo at 100m to penetrate 106mm!!!!
they knocked T34s on the russian front as well and were used in common use to do this late in the war after 44.

i will supply info soon.


Tank and Anti-tank Guns Shell Type Penetration
2 cm L.55 KwK 30/38 A.P.H.E. (Pz.Gr.) 24 mm
A.P. (Pz.Gr. 39) 31 mm
A.P. (Pz.Gr. 39-1) 40 mm
A.P.C.R. (Pz.Gr. 40) 52 mm
Apparently, there are pictures of the FlaK 38 on a low carriage for use as an anti-tank gun by Volkssturm militia units. It is very likely that this gun had substantial anti-tank capabilities or at least stocks of good ammunition to commend it for that role. The gun was also popular during the early Russian campaign for firing at Soviet T-26 and B.T. tanks. There are photos of Sd.Kfz. 221 light armoured cars mounting this weapon, instead of the light machine gun they had previously been armed with exclusively.
2 cm L.112.5 FlaK 30/38 A.P.H.E. (Pz.Gr.) 49 mm
A.P. (Pz.Gr. 39) 57 mm
A.P. (Pz.Gr. 39-1) 81 mm

keep in mind when the germans were in stalingrad they already had a serious tungsten shortage.As all nations did as they couldnt mine it as fast as they could use it.
And sometime in 1943 an order was given that it be used only for tool building purposes.As so to be able to keep on making weapons,which was considered more important (and fair enough too).
DDay happened in the middle of 1944,at no time between stalingrad and DDay did the germans get Tungsten delieveries.
And if they did,im sure some general in charge somewhere would of slapped (executed) down the idiot who gave the order to turn their last tungsten into ammo for a 20mm/37mm flak gun.

Yer this is true but they must have made up stock piles of this ammo if to be use in the cases i have read about.
The 28/20mm AT gun was the one i know were Tungsten was in the most use and they stoped making this gun because of this shortage.

Also it may have not been Tungsten they were using for the ammo?

Quote:
The first wave suffered 50% casualties


I have heard of this myth before.

I think if you look at this a bit closer you will find that in fact ONE of the assault Companies actually suffered this casualty rate over the whole day.

Total losses on 6th june for Juno sector were in the region of 900 men.
The first wave consisted of the Rifle companies of 4 battalions, approx. 3,000 men.
True there were high losses in the first wave, due in part to the armour landing later than the infantry instead of before them as planned. However by midday the rest of the front 2 Brigades had landed and were pushing inland, and taking their share of losses too.

By the end of the day the great majority of 3rd Canadian Division was ashore, 20,000+ men, and they had made the furthest penetration into Normandy of all the allied armies.

There are quite a few sites on the web about the Canadian landings, I personally look for sites that give a reference from where their facts are drawn from, they tend to be more reliable.

Cause Juno seems like the easiest beach for Allies not hardest in game.

as all other beach sectors Juno consisted of several beach landing zones. The GJS Juno map represents one of the landing zone where canucks planned to land main forces. But in reality they missed and main forces landed in Coursailles area where defence wasn't suppressed enough and simply was better protected. Thus high casualties at Juno as Cours. was part of Juno sector.

The german 20mm 115 cal ver was able with SP Ammo at 100m to penetrate 106mm!!!!

brr, 106mm Wink.
Jentz gives 40mm@100m with PzGr40 tho that's for 2cm L/55 but i don't expect L/115 will have much higher penetration. Maby several mm more on each range.

Quote:
they knocked T34s on the russian front as well and were used in common use to do this late in the war after 44.

yes i've read one sov. reports where 4 T-34 were KO by battery of 2cm FlaKs.
But that wasn't common, it was like KO T-34 with mortar Smile. And thing is that tungsten core has just usually fallen on the floor of combat compartment of penetrated tank as core spent all it's energy to perforate.
So imo that's not amust that they didn't KO tanx with PzGr39. Examples: burst at barrel = tank is KO, at turret ring and the turret is jammed = tank KO, at rollers = tank KO,etc.

Quote:
There are photos of Sd.Kfz. 221 light armoured cars mounting this weapon, instead of the light machine gun they had previously been armed with exclusively.

sure they didn't have KwK38?

Lord4war,

Quote:
keep in mind when the germans were in stalingrad they already had a serious tungsten shortage.As all nations did as they couldnt mine it as fast as they could use it.

at Stal time germans were on a peak of using APCRs.

Quote:
And sometime in 1943 an order was given that it be used only for tool building purposes.

Somehow since 1943 they produced APCRs for KwK42, for Pak43/KwK43, for KwK36, KwK40/StuK40/PaK40, etc.

Quote:
at no time between stalingrad and DDay did the germans get Tungsten delieveries.

really?
One example: Portugal ceased deliveres of tungsten in summer 1944 after allies landed in Norm.
And the Portugal wasn't the only country that exported hvy metals to Germany during war Wink.

Quote:
And if they did,im sure some general in charge somewhere would of slapped (executed) down the idiot who gave the order to turn their last tungsten into ammo for a 20mm/37mm flak gun.

true that's why no APCR in TRSM Smile.

if u think the germans invented them ur entitled to ur opinion.

in 1940 the pak35/36 recieved the pzgr40 for the first time.lengthening its time on the front line.
not the first use of tungsten in german ammo,but of that sized calibre.
before that it was majority 2cm kwk and flaks who had the stocks of it.
Russia being Germanys primary Tungsten supplier.
Portugal and Spain could never supply enough or really wanted to for fear of retribution from the allies.

Quote:
The 28/20mm AT gun was the one i know were Tungsten was in the most use and they stoped making this gun because of this shortage.

Also it may have not been Tungsten they were using for the ammo?

Tiger!


yes they had some various different core materials such as steel,soft and hard iron,but none could match the tungsten for penetration,and the production cost was too much for the lil extra it provided over the basic Pzgr39 style ammo

yes this gun and the Pak 41 were both made in a very limited production run.
i guess the 41 gives away when they were made,keep in mind they also ceased being made that year,for u guessed it no other reason than tungsten shortages.
as they were both very effective guns.

simply coz of supply they had in stock at the time period,with most of it being 20mm.Also no war with Russia was a big factor too.
and then there is how much more tungsten is needed for a 3.7cm compare to 20mm.Then follow the natural progression for the ammo to be introduced
to the 5cm pak.It places the timeline for you,and the situation of supply.If u cant look at it in a logistical way,its like food in a mess tent,
you have been told the availability is low,you then have to ration it before it runs out,or you run out faster.

Quote:

the fact that spain and portugal became germanys main supplier from mid 1941 is not being disputed by me.the fact that they couldnt supply enough is.
please provide evidence that spain and portugal could supply Germany with enough.

well yes,take into account the weapons range up to 500metres,lets say 400metres to be on safe side.compare its range to a Faustpatrone or Panzerfaust
it comes out on top,now compare its accuracy,it comes out on top again,now consider its R.O.F.
then consider how many throwaway zooks they made.
Reason - tungsten shortage?,quick hit the history books.

no a msn friend just said to say that to get u rambling,lol.
Sorry dude it is german logic!All three of the German tapered-bore guns bear the same date of standardization—1941.(stupid germans you may say)

2.8 spzb rolled out in 1940,when they made the only 24 Sd.Kfz 221.fitted with the 2.8cm sPzB 41(of which 10 survived 4years to represent in TRSM)

maybe would be better represented in a SdKfz 250/11 for the time period.

and the 7.5cm Pak 41 first rolled out in new year of 42 (150 of them)

with the 4.2-cm Pak 41 being released in between.

my previous statement was in reference to the 2.8cm sPzB
hmmmm maybe u think i said germans had no tungsten stockpile?
coz they were great at logistics,they knew what they were facing before they had to face it.
their greatest losses were predicted by their own military,caused just for pleasing Hitler.

if u had any experience with industry u'd know that to steal and copy is possible (i say again possible) only with v simple things.
APCR isn't simple thing. So if u want to copy that u'll need to adjust everything according to your production possibilities and experience with it. And that means develop yer own thing.

Quote:

yes of coz lol.
ever tried to make logical conclusions from what u read/hear?
well i will try to give some tips:
1)Who had the most armored AVF in 1940 according to germans?
2)When and why did the germans decide to make the tank that will be named PzVI in 1942?

Quote:
Then follow the natural progression for the ammo to be introduced

what year? 1940?Wink

and i will give u another tip Smile.
Production of 3,7cm-Pzgr40 in 1000 shells:
1940 - 286,6
1941 - 885,2.

so how does it correspond with: Germans were at the peak of using APCRs during 1940 invasion of France. (c)Anzac_Lor4war?

Now let me tell u the facts:
during 18 monthes of Soviet-German trade agreement, Germany received 500 tons of tungsten. Does it tell u anything?
I don't even tell u why did the soviets supply tungsten to germans Wink. Maby u can try to make a guess?

well, u know enough is v subjective word. f.e. for u 1000$ is enuf and for me 10000$ is not enuf or vice versa.
objective thing is that they supplied to germans 1100tons per month in 1944. Now try to compare with the Soviet supplies in 39-40 and mining capabilities of tungsten of USSR or USA (or just world mining capabilites Wink).

Pak.41 even with AP shot with steel insert could penetrate more than Pak.40 with APCBC.

In reality they were made in 1941,the sPzB rolled off the production line in december of 1940,the main production run

thanks im sure they are great books,but im mainly concerned with mid 1944.and am aware of how fast things change in a war,
and of the need to be constantly adaptable to the situation around you.And in 1944, A major problem resulted from a lack of clarity
in the panzer command structure. The newly formed 47th Panzer Corps was still in process of taking over command of 21st, 116th and 2nd Panzer Divisions,
whilst administrative and supply matters remained under Panzer Group West, with both responsible to Rommel's Army Group B.
To complicate matters further, Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt, Commander in Chief West, was powerless to commit the
strategic reserve without the authority of OKW, meaning in effect Hitler.

3)Also no war with Russia was a big factor too.(c)Anzac_Lor4war - explain this statement plz.
4)Then follow the natural progression for the ammo to be introduced(c)Anzac_Lor4war - so u know that 5cm PzGr.40 wasn't introduced in 1940 ?! Cool! Now how then yer statements corressponds with:Germans were at the peak of using APCRs during 1940 invasion of France.(c)Anzac_Lor4war?

When did 3.7cm PzGr.40 were put in production i.e. month?

Quote:
have u any idea how many 20mm ammo was in use,or even how many 20mm guns there was at time,let me tell you!

i have an idea of how many 2cm PzGr.40 were in production in 1940 - will be close to....ZERO.

Quote:
they dwarf the pak 3.7 figures.

in yer reality.

Quote:
well obnoxious, im not asking you for a thank you or anything
i dont mind telling u which tanks had which guns if my knowledge is greater than your knowledges.lol

u told me? what? when? did i miss it?

Quote:
u just recently learnt about the kwk39/1 for the Puma

how did u come to that conclusion? u r not woman, rn't u?

Quote:
its free info for you to copy,steal,develop,invent

thnx!!! lol

Quote:
just to show no hard feelings i give u 1 tip for TRSM v94 PzIVG does not use the same gun as PzIVH!

do u mean it doesnt use in TRSM or it didn't use in reality?

Quote:
thanks for verifying it after insisting i put imho in such lame statements,such manners.is

that a fact or facts?

fact.

Quote:
its really not necessary,as i did not ask you,i told you about it.

u told me why USSR supplied tungsten to Germany? when?

Quote:
once again i asked u to provide evidence of it(in the form of some type of documentation).not to type some figures in forum,in an attempt to obfuscate the matter,i really would like to see the documentation,coz if u can find that it will probly say which industries it was delivered too and for what!

u asked me to provide evidence? when?

anyway, u know what is logical?
1)i give u numbers as there were not any given by u.
2)u try to counter them with sources and it is u who's not agree with them.
3)i show u my sources.

Quote:
p.s $1000 is way too much for me(feel better now?),id think i was rich.but i guess them dollar amounts r just like ur mining figures.lol

it's yer own problems - can't help u with them.

Quote:
why? u comparing it to a 2.8cm sPzB 41 which was designed a few years earlier and also for a total different ammo used.

becoz Pupchen production was ceased for same reason as 2.8cm sPzB.41.

Quote:
usually twins r born within an hour of each other.not half a war apart.

now i c it - u do have problems with logic.
employment was the key word Wink.

Quote:
the same date of standardization—1941 this is german naming not mine.i.e:like Hitler renaming MP43 to Stg44.

i guess the 41 gives away when they were made(c)Anzac_Lord4war ?
can't c anything about standartization in yer statement. But can clearly c that they WERE MADE.

Quote:
how come you dont know this?

how did u come to such conclusion?

Quote:
ahhh silly i said sPzB 41 got rolled out in 1940

2.8 spzb rolled out in 1940,when they made the only 24 Sd.Kfz 221.fitted with the 2.8cm sPzB 41(of which 10 survived 4years to represent in TRSM)(c)Lord4War
I believe anyone can clearly c that u told SdKfz 221 in 1940.

Quote:
Geez u mean the sPzB 41 was easily mountable,such extrodinary knowledge,who would of ever thought that from a 120kg 2manned gun,that troops carried up mountains?

actually it has crew of 3.
but good that u know some things Smile.

Quote:
did they do it to the Pak42 too?lol dont stop ur running hot.

i think it was irony?

Quote:
ur knowledges know no knowledge,lol

hmm didn't get what u mean....

Quote:
i always am and will continue to do so regardless of ur advice,its enjoyable for me.

that's good Smile

Quote:
just becoz u think u know all and have stopped.

lol, how did u come to that conclusion?

Looks like once again yer logic fails u.

Quote:
thanks im sure they are great books,but im mainly concerned with mid 1944.and am aware of how fast things change in a war, and of the need to be constantly adaptable to the situation around you. And in 1944, A major problem resulted from a lack of clarity in the panzer command structure. The newly formed 47th Panzer Corps was still in process of taking over command of 21st, 116th and 2nd Panzer Divisions, whilst administrative and supply matters remained under Panzer Group West, with both responsible to Rommel's Army Group B. To complicate matters further, Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt, Commander in Chief West, was powerless to commit the strategic reserve without the authority of OKW, meaning in effect Hitler.

what is it all about?
i've asked about what units had those guns in SS-PzD and 21PzD.
2.8 spzb rolled out in 1940,when they made the only 24 Sd.Kfz 221.fitted with the 2.8cm sPzB 41(of which 10 survived 4years to represent in TRSM)<---ican't understand yer statement.
Explain plz.

Quote:
and i will keep telling u that tungsten and not irony is the subject.

has tungsten was used in production of Pak41 series?

Quote:
ok the generals didnt want to retreat when they knew they had to do so for survival.

from where to where? when?

Quote:
Hitler ordered them to retreat,and the german generals said no we will stay here without supply and fight to the last man and do it for the fatherland.

where from? when?

Quote:
is that easier for you to believe?I thought so!

hmm, can't understand u.
what u have thought of?

Quote:
funny part is i didnt say it,u did.lol MG34 is in ur head.

of coz u didn't. MG.34 was like an example that:keep in mind they also ceased being made that year(c)Anzac_Lord4war - can be wrong.

Quote:
but at least u now know that it is the case with these 3 weaponswhich i was talking about,,which primary use was anti tank gun.

so now u talk that i know....

Quote:
k98 hmmmm,they got a bit ahead of themselves there.lmao according to your logic.

my logic?! how did u come to such conclucion?

Quote:
what does that have to do with the price of fish/tungsten?

hmm, now u talk about fish...
anyway it does say nothing about price of tungsten, it does say only that Pak41 with PzGr.40(W) could penetrate more than Pak40 with APCBC at same distances vs soviet tanx.

Quote:
i already know,and offered you the debate.(see image below)

hmm, pic w/o sources gives no information as u could do such table yerself...
well yes, i have reasons to suspect that u r cheating as u did i before.
anyway i was speaking about Pak42 ATG...and yer table shows correct numbers for 1942 Very Happy.

Quote:
it was an honest question to you,there was 2 answers for you to pick from,which u could not pick one (kinda lame).

i'v replied to the part that was most interesting to me Smile.

Quote:
are you too scared to say its ur opinion?like u might get trapped?or is it a dickhead throwaway statement?

sry can't understand what u r talking about...

Quote:
and here is pak42 production figures and why i offered u them 2 choices of answers. most people wouldnt hesitate to back themselves and say that was their opinion/or IMHO,but u have! lol

dude, u r useless...PaK42 or Pak40/42 was meant as ATG. And germans did cease production of that ATG. Were all reworked as KwK42 or Pak42(PzIV/70).

Quote:
anything to obfuscate the subject at hand,hey dima.

hehe, that were the tips for 1940 PzGr.40 shells Smile.Sux, yer logic sux lol.

Let's sum it all up:

1) U've posted wrong statements. I corrected u. Instead of thanking me, asking why i think so or just keep silence (as usual) u decided to post more rediculous statements.

2) Regarding tungsten shortage...
Was tungsten used in manufacturing of Pak41, sPzB41 or lePak41?
If Pak.41 with PzGr.41(W) had better penetration stats that Pak.40 with APCBC - why should we remove it from production? Same for all the tapered bore guns...
So yer statement:keep in mind they also ceased being made that year,for u guessed it no other reason than tungsten shortages.- is at least very doubtful.

3)Regarding the issue of PzGr.40...
3.7cm PzGr,40 were issued in 1940 (late summer - fall) for first time.
3)before that it was majority 2cm kwk and flaks who had the stocks of it.(c)Lord4war - totally wrong statement as 2-cm PzGr.40 shells were put in production in 1941.
2cm PzGr.40 were issued in 1941.
5cm PzGr.40 were issued in 1941.
7.5cm PzGr.40 were issued in 1942.
8.8cm PzGr.40 were issued in 1943.
Thus yer statement:Germans were at the peak of using APCRs during 1940 invasion of France. (c)Anzac_Lor4war - is totally wrong.

4)Yer statement:
Russia being Germanys primary Tungsten supplier.(c)Anzac_Lor4war - is wrong again.

So my advises to u:
1)Ask if u not sure about something.
2)Ask if u want to know about anything.
3)Read more books.

First of all it would be as the example u have was made on different machines by different ppl using different tools.
Second im not familiar with the history that germans copied someone's APCR. At least no country had APCRs in production in 1940


well at least u r being honest about not being familiar with it.
think about the taper bore craze again,and what lead to it.
there u will find the answer.

dima
Quote:
1)I never pretended/told that iam historian.
2)I can't understand what u mean by dont know what the /1 means on a KwK39.
I mean how did u come to that conclusion or how it corressponds with our topic?


since this

dima
Quote:
Anzac_Lord4war - often is not correct.


just trying to point out u fixed that up for v94 from v92.thanks to having it pointed out to u.
and my other tip to u regarding the PzIVG it does not use the same gun as PzIVH!this one is for V94 TRSM or reality.
so why not help u to see i often am correct.and that dima is often incorrect.

dima
Quote:
Also no war with Russia was a big factor too.(c)Anzac_Lor4war - explain this statement plz.


well there is only 9 words and there all really complicated (see a dictionary).
just keep in mind u already agreed Smile

dima
Quote:
Then follow the natural progression for the ammo to be introduced(c)
so u know that 5cm PzGr.40 wasn't introduced in 1940 ?! Cool!


der fred,who said it was introduced in 1940 for the 5cm gun? r u assuming as u usually do again?

dima
Quote:
Now how then yer statements corressponds with:Germans were at the peak of using APCRs during 1940 invasion of France.


read previous thread from me.

dima
Quote:
wow cool conclusion!


oh u already read it then,and ignored it then continue to carry on like a fuckwit and keep asking it.

dima

Quote:
i didn't get it...
how the higher production of 3.7cm PzGr.40 shells in 1941 supports the statement:
Germans were at the peak of using APCRs during 1940 invasion of France.


there is a lot of shit u dont get.some industry leaders may see it as replacing what is used/
or stocking for what is needed.but i understand ur not good at reading into logistics.

dima
Quote:
seems u have problems with logics...
I showed u rite direction by tips, but u just can't get it.
Second try:
When did 3.7cm PzGr.40 were put in production i.e. month?


wtf u talking bout now?

LMAO

dima
Quote:
u told me why USSR supplied tungsten to Germany? when?


no confused boy,i told u russia was the primary tungsten source to germany.
u struggled with it.lol now u have researched it.and realised u r wrong.lol
ur probaly shocked that russia supplied over half the german imports,just before russia was attacked.LMAO

dima

anyway, u know what is logical?


sorry man not when it comes from you.

dima

1)i give u numbers as there were not any given by u.

sorry man,i havent seen any of ur sources.just quotes by u,most making no sense.

dima
Quote:
it's yer own problems - can't help u with them


it is kool i have all the industry imports from russia to germany in tons per month for the period.

off topic but an interesting trivia matter= Russia mines 25% of the worlds tungsten,with 50% coming from China,and the rest of
the world making up the other 25%.

dima
Quote:
becoz Pupchen production was ceased for same reason as 2.8cm sPzB.41.
now i c it - u do have problems with logic.
employment was the key word .


the comment was employed by u to distract from subject at hand.

dima
Quote:
I believe anyone can clearly c that u told SdKfz 221 in 1940.


does that sentence when told by u even mean anything?

dima
Quote:
actually it has crew of 3.


thats known but do u know it can be manned by 2 men?and was more often than not.
just check pictures of it in action.Smile be warned they may clash with ur training manuals.

dima
Quote:
it does say only that Pak41 with PzGr.40(W) could penetrate more than Pak40 with APCBC at same distances vs soviet tanx


was a dickhead statement by u which had nothing to do with argument,u fire the wrong ammo from the wrong gun.maybe kill the gunners firing it.lol
please explain to every1 else how a PzGr.40(W) shell is fired from a Pak41.
u know there waiting for ur made up answer.

dima
Quote:
Was tungsten used in manufacturing of Pak41, sPzB41 or lePak41?


yes

dima
Quote:
If Pak.41 with PzGr.41(W) had better penetration stats that Pak.40 with APCBC -
why should we remove it from production?


k firstly u haved changed the ammo type from PzGr.40(W)which was incorret by u to PzGr.41(W)
the (W) stands for Weicheisen or soft iron.not Wolfram/tungsten.
ive already mentioned the cost and time involved to have this equipment up and running(including cost of PzGr.41 or PzGr.41(W) ammo)
as being many times greater than having a pak40 with apcbc.
Pak40 APCBC ammo was much more accurate at medium to long ranges,also barrel wear issues affected the Pak41 as well.
also there r no verified figures for the PzGr.41(W) type ammo penetration,a lot of sources just seemed to have copied the tungsten row PzGr.41.
but good sources say it is much less,and only being competitive at close ranges.
these penetrations r for the pak40 with PzGr.40/APCR,PzGr.40(W)/APCNR and PzGr.39/APCBC all at 100metres.
PzGr.40/APCR 126mm Tungsten/Wolfram round
PzGr.40(W)/APCNR 77mm Soft Iron/Weicheisen round
PzGr.39/APCBC 99mm
me thinks it hardly worth the manufacturing effort,but i dont know as much as u about irony industry.Smile

dima
Quote:
So yer statement:keep in mind they also ceased being made that year,
for u guessed it no other reason than tungsten shortages.- is at least very doubtful.


nothing doubtful about it they only made 150 pak41 7.5cm(backed by many sources).if u want to cast some doubt it was they ,
werent ready till 1942,proof of the long manufacturing process of the taper-bore guns.

ur incorrect on the 2cm.
but see u could follow the natural progression for the ammo to be introduced.lol
only took u 2 of ur own posts to get it.
funny thing is u dont know what beat the 2cm tungsten ammo into service.
