Figure 17 in the report showed the target used ( multiple armor plates stacked with most of them 1.5 inches and a 2 inch one) indicating that the T80 was unable to pen the next 1.5 inch plate or it would have been noted to have 6.5 inches as its pentration instead of 5.
So there was some limit established in the report.
Btw Last update fixed M9 rocket now you can bully and kill tiger 2H with it, firing on the side, frontally you can damage the turret and the transmission
This is a lightweight version using aluminum/or aluminum alloys instead of steel - the gain was almost 5-6 pounds or
Or 15.87 kg versus 10.3 or 7.1 kg versus 4.6 kg
I suggested paratroopers box
IT CAN PEN THE FRONT?!
BET! Gonna go try this now

Dang didn’t know it was so light. Man I love aluminum. Weird that paper classifies it as a rocket launcher though, but hey whatever I guess. It’s almost close enough. Lol

I knew it was increased, but I didn’t know it was increased enough to front pen. Oh BOY this’ll be good!
Still though, recoilless rifles are like HMC/SPH. They just make me happy! Maybe cause they both fire artillery rounds….
Well I just destroyed the transmission and turrets movement and flanked it for kill it from the side, I don’t know if you can frontal kill it
Did you get the turret ring through the turret face?
Turret Cheeks but was a weird shot from behind a bush I killed someone inside and damaged the movement of the turret, as for the transmission a clean direct shot, After I flanked and fired at the center of the tank from the side killing the crews
Or did I misunderstand you and you meant 
M18 gun / 57mm recoilless rifle
or M18 2.36in rocket launcher
In the training ground it looks like it is possible when you hit the side of add on tracked armor from the from so post pen can travel into the turret and damage the rear ammo storage. But due to the distance it might take some shots to fully ignite the ammo.
Edit: It still looks to be pixle hunting but it is possible even if not reliable or feasable under less optimal contions like in a real match.
Might be a barely penning shot and may or may not pen and do damage. Definitely something to look into. At the very least, you can abuse them by killing the gunner repeatedly so long as you got the ammo
Yes. Recoilless Rifle. Did not know there was an M18 Bazooka. Even went to look for it real quick online and didn’t see it in the results

M18 bazooka is the M9, made in aluminium and modified for fire alongside rocket incendiary or smoke granade, it was used in the Pacific

I wanted to talk about it
WH and WP
a chemical projectile using cyanogen chloride was also developed
I’ve been asking for the WP rockets and shells for a while now myself
i obviously missed this. yay for me for researching penetrations to get buff 
btw m1 is also fixed to 80mm and m9 is 127.
well yeah it got buffed, so it can deal with panthers and tigers well, but Tiger II H?
127 mm is obviously not enough for that… Tiger II H has ~200mm
