APCBC.

[AttackerCat]

The APCBC which is the Shot Mk. 8.

Most pen, best velocity, decent shrapneling.
Erases KV-1s frontally through their thickest armor.

Ya, but the gun is really good. 170 pen. Its like an entire br lower than the panther gun but performing just as well. You will make many tigers cry.

They fixed that part. Spalling was the issue. The shell didnt create enough scrapnel to deal sufficient damage. But they fixed that.

Im at the comet. Not exacly feeling happy to continue the line either. The comet really sucks. 1kmh rear speed. Br 3.0 hull. A gun thats worse than the 17 pounder. Worse thing is that its the only 5.3 vehicle.

FV4202 seems worth it, also every centurion, seems like great tanks

[Jeruzalem]

Ya, the fv4202 is a pain to fight.

It might be tough now, but from what I hear British tier 4 is great, so look forward to that. Use Shot Mk. 8 on any tank that has the 17 pounder, it's great. Keep in mind though, it's a solid AP shell. Russian/American/German/Japanese tanks have access to APHE, which as opposed to yours penetrates the tank and explodes, where yours just goes right through. On the bright side you have more penetration than APHE as you can tell, 170mm of pen at 4.7? That's crazy!

[Jeruzalem]

I know. Your gun equals that of the german L70. And they dont get that one until 5.3 with the jagdpanzer 4. You even get the 17 pounder at 4.0 with the TD. Slow turret, but unmatched in penetration and accuracy. Today i shot 3 kv-1b's one after another with the achilles. Like shooting fish in a barrel.
