Firefly - Hull - Too stong#461

D

Firefly hull seems stonger than it should be, S76, S75 and FF were all tested with Panther of the 3 only the FF was able to shrug off rounds at ranges of 600 meters, full testing video to follow.

The FF hull should be the same as the S75 hull its based on, 51mm nominal thickness, at 56 degrees from vertical, 90mm effective thickenss.

Panther was capable of around 120 -125mm of RHA at 600 meters at 30 degrees.

Pentration was posible on other sherman versions hulls at the same ranges. Turret and driver and co driver (lumps) also seemed vulnerable on FF to abover ranges.

I think the 3L can penetrate the body of the m4a2, but not the ff, although they are theoretically the same
