#1: German machine guns and halftracks vs American Author: fruitbar, Posted: Thu Jun 24, 2010 7:46 am — I tested a MG halftrack versus MG halftrack and the .30cal or .50cal fires at the halftrack as though it can penetrate but the MG34/MG42 does not fire at the halftrack...
so the question is..
1) are the caliber machine guns stronger than the machinegewehrs?
2) are american halftracks stronger in terms of armor than german halftracks?
