it would be cool thought if the 50 cali could be destroyed.. but of course that would probaly require a new model of the actual tank ?

but yea, the rpg's are really a pain against APC's... its aweful 2 shots and your done... :( ... and sometimes it takes 3 heavy AT rockets to take out a tank... it should only take 1 or 2

2 rpgs takes out an APC, i was asking how many rpg's it actually takes to take out a Fully Armored Tank - it takes 3 IED's/C4's,

was that rapidly or just on the tour ?

I wish the MEC's would get 2 different types of RPG's, one High Explosive and one Pure Penetration

You gotta make your way round to the backside and hit it square on the "***" fairly close up at least 2 times to get it smoking enough for the driver to eventually bail (3 will kill it). If you don't hit it square on (opposed to at an angle) the round just glaces off.

The occassional RPG round can scare the driver enough to get out to fix his toy, though, where you can shoot him then :D

the tank can take a whole load of punishment up front. The thing about MBTs is that shells and RPGs "glance" off the surface if your hitting them at an angle. Ive had a round where my tank took up around a dozen or so L-AT shots and just only smoked in Sunrise City.

But it takes around 3~4 rounds in the rear at a perpendicular angle to take out a tank with light AT.
