Template for value comparisons

This template proposal allows to quickly generate value comparisons. Eg. if you'll pass penetration values of 2 weapons, it can be used to generate text like "It's close Soviet counterpart has 21% lower penetration". It can accommodate to a different language versions and flexion via optional parameters. If accepted - it can be used to built template that would be automatically pulling values for the units based purely on their codes and specified attributes (idea is to make requests like jp_type_95_ha_go|us_m2a2|speed|forward|AB)


Proposal for Ammo racks

Because ammo racks tables are not very intuitive, here is my proposal:

Racks empty none 1 1 & 2 1 to 3 1 to 4 1 to 5 1 to 6
Racks full 1 to 6 2 to 6 3 to 6 4 to 6 5 & 6 6 none
Shells onboard __ (+0) __ (+__) __ (+__) __ (+__) __ (+__) __ (+__) 1 (+__)

Alternative?

Racks Full 1st empty 2nd empty 3rd empty 4th empty Visual discrepancy

Shells onboard __ (+0) __ (+__) __ (+__) __ (+__) __ (+__) Yes

Bomb tables

I took this article: AN-M30A1 (100 lb) as a template for bomb pages.

Proposal 1

General Info

Data for WSP XP PAGE bomb

Body Diameter 20.7 cm 8.1 in
Filling Weight 24.5 kg 52.9 lb
Total Weight 45.8 kg 100 lb
Explosive Filling Amatol
Bomb Type High Explosive

Effective damage

WSP XP PAGE damage table Metric Imperial
Max armour penetration high explosive action 79 mm 3.11 in
Radius of destruction of an armoured vehicle 2.1 m 6.9 ft
Radius of fragment dispersion 67.3 m 220.8 ft

Comparison with analogues

D.T. No.2 55.7 kg 19.9 kg TNT 73 mm 2.1 m 67.4 m

Proposal 2

Another user updated the bomb pages with this template:

Mass 45.8kg
Explosive type Amatol
Explosive mass 24.5kg
TNT equivalent 24.5kg
Max armor penetration HE action 79 mm
Radius of destruction of armored vehicles 2 m
Radius of fragment dispersion 67 m

Proposal 3

Bomb characteristics

Survivability and armour

Armour type:

  • MEXAS 2C - Applique armor on hull
Armour Front (Slope angle) Sides Rear Roof
Hull 12.7 mm + 25.4 mm MEXAS 2C 12.7 mm + 25.4 mm MEXAS 2C ?? 12.7 mm + 25.4 mm MEXAS 2C
Turret 12.7 mm + 25.4 mm 12.7 mm 12.7 mm 12.7 mm
Cupola 12.7 mm MEXAS?? 12.7 mm 12.7 mm 12.7 mm

Notes:

  • .50 cal machine gun shield has 12.7 mm of armor protection

Pros and cons

Pros:

  • High resolution thermal gunner and commander optics, as well as low resolution driver thermal optics.
  • Has access to the M900 high penetration APFSDS round when spaded.
  • Autoloader allows a 7.5 second reload no matter the amount of crew members left or their health.
  • Can put another shell in the autoloader in only 6 seconds; it is not effected by crew skill.
  • High turret traverse speed (60°/sec with an ace crew) allows great reactionary ability.
  • Unmanned turret can protect the crew from harm thanks to their location in the hull.
  • Laser Warning Receiver (LWR) can allow increased situational awareness.
  • Can fire smoke grenades three times, four grenades each time (total of 12 smoke grenades).
  • .50 caliber machine gun can be used against low-flying aerial targets and lightly armored ground vehicles.

Cons:

  • 7.5 second reload is longer than for many vehicles with a 105 mm gun and human loader when they have full crew loading skill.
  • Can only carry 18 rounds of ammunition, which may not always be enough.
  • Thin armor can only protect against machine gun rounds; it is not able to protect against autocannons.
  • It has a very large profile, making it an easy target. It is also vulnerable to hull break.
  • Horsepower to ton ratio of ~15 hp/t results in low acceleration.
  • Can not neutral steer and the off-road mobility is poor because of the wheeled design.
