Rifleman AT weapon damage

Depends what's loaded into the RPG launcher though doesn't it?

It's not even that, it's the fact that the current system see vehicles spontaneously explode into a wreck, killing all the passengers and anyone around the vehicle instantly. An RPG hitting the side of a humvee would simply pierce the armor, and kill, or seriously wound the occupants inside, but the humvee would relatively fine with the exception of a hole in the door. It also just doesn't make sense for everyone to die because an RPG took out the tire or something.

I'm just not sure how possible it is for a much more realistic damage system to be implemented, but I guess the devs know all the details.

Well, MEC are dropping the RPG-7 in favor of something like the RPG-29.

Close; RPG-26.

Apparently this is a confirmation for the upcoming .8?

Really... effective to 250 meters, compared to the RPG-7's max of 920 (but good out to 300 m. Most engagements were apparently within 80 meters?)


really... cool!

Where is this armor? In real life supply vehicles are effectively unarmored, like tractor trailers and the HEMTT. That's why they're not taken into combat zones. Supply trucks are for supply and transport behind the lines, they're not assault vehicles.

Not sure if the vehicle ingame is a 7 Ton, but the 7 Ton sure as hell is not some lanky pos. The sides are pretty hefty and durable.

The crew cab and/or cargo body perimeter armor were designed for the MTVR. The perimeter armor will withstand multiple (up to 3 rounds within one square foot) 7.62x39 M80 ball rounds fired from a one-meter standoff (threshold) with a 7.62 x 39 Armor Piercing (AP) rounds fired from a one hundred-meter offset (objective). The perimeter armor will withstand all fragmentation smaller than 1 inch from an Improvised Explosive Devise (IED) detonated at 4 meters with a ¼ pound of C4 (objective). The mine protection kit shall protect the crew and/or cargo space occupants from blast, fragments, and injurious acceleration effects of blast mines up to the equivalent of 12 pounds of composition B (threshold), 16 pounds of composition B (objective). The bottom fragmentation protection shall be equivalent to 0.5 inches of aluminum armor (threshold), rolled homogeneous armor (objective), in order to protect the crew from grenades, bomblets, and mortar rounds used as mines. Overhead protection for the crew compartment must stop 90% of artillery fragments (U.S. 155mm high energy (HE) round, M107 (Composition B)) fired from any elevation or azimuth and detonated 60 meters from the vehicle, with a 90% confidence level.

Close; RPG-26.

that just made my day, any idea on its effectiveness compared with other LAT?

The RPG-26 Aglen is a disposable anti-tank rocket launcher developed by the Soviet Union. It fires a single-stage rocket with jack-knife fins, which unfold after launch. The rocket carries a 72.5 millimeter diameter high explosive anti-tank single shaped charge warhead capable of penetrating 440 millimeters of armour, one meter of reinforced concrete or one and a half meters of brickwork. It has a maximum effective range of around 250 meters.

I'm sorry I couldn't find a better source .

Seems damn good, based on that.

From what i know, the weapon is a bit weak, I often get very annoyed when shooting a vechieles and doing very little damage.
