AT-4 Issue

Post by Nano516 »

Can the AT-4 have a higher slash radius or better penetration . I prefer better penetration I got into a firefight on Archer and shot a mud hut a taliban soldier had ran into and nothing lol but When we pulled out a HAT. BOOM no more hut. Even tho Its Light AT it should still be able to take a dirt wall hut out

Thats What I want for Destroyable Buildings

The AT4 doesn't get much love does it :D If you can't get the HAT and have to take it, it doesn't give you much confidence. Would be interested to see some damage comparisons though.

well the way an AT4 works is it penetrates the target mainly designed to pen RHA and then explodes forward mostly which acts as the penetration and "killer" (the rocket explodes forward and not side to side). Now if you were to shoot this at a hut chances are anyone in the hut could live maybe shook up and minor (if not serious) shrapnel injuries but its not designed to be a bunker buster its anti armor mainly because if shoots forward and focuses on RHA penetration and not fragmentation in every direction... this works with the RPG (yes if you shoot at a infantry squad with a rpg not loaded with frag there is a good chance they will still be there with minor injuries and then shoot your ***), SMAW, LAW (same rules go for these weapons) etc...

but what about HEDP you ask... well true HEDP rockets are used against bunkers with great effect (this will destroy a bunker) but these rockets are in limited roles and the normal infantry squad will not receive them instead receive at4 with regular HEAT rockets. This does not mean they are not out there, you will come across infantry squads who will have them but mainly AT4 are HEAT ive never seen a HP rocket but they are out there too, ive seen 1 HEDP I think and that was with a light armored recon unit!

hope that helped!!! any questions feel free to message me

so basically if you shoot at a hut with a HEAT round you will only leave a nice hole and give anyone in there scratches and headaches....im not saying they will not die.... they can anything can happen but im telling you what will mainly happen

This is about to get moved to the suggestion forum, where it belongs.
