Why does super pershing have apcr?

I just unlocked it and i realize that it got really low ammo count. Worst of all is that apcr takes 1/4th of the total ammo. In what situation would apcr ever be good for super pershing? It already can frontal pen panther, tiger and king tiger with apcbc and apcr has insanely bad post pen in exchange for slightly better pen that super pershing wont even need. Why is it there? Can you remove it? Getting more HE would be much more useful

Ho-Ri (min 225mm)
AP pen is 224
Ho-Ri shouldn’t be on BR V to be honest.
This is a BR VI thing.

Bro APCR has high penetration than APCBC

It is good to kill King tiger with one shot from front

if u need HE to kill infantry u better use m4a3 (105) or M4A3E2

super pershing is use for anti tank roll

I can confirm that I have never used APCR with Superpersh, the excessive amount of APCR shells feel like an unintentional nerf to be honest.

You will simply never need 28 armour piercing shells with superpersh, while you can run out of HE.
IMO the best solution is letting people pick the shells they want to take to battle with themselves.

The apcbc can do the same. In fact apcr sometimes doesnt oneshot because poor post pen. Apcbc on the other hand is guaranteed kill

If King tiger or Hori just do little bit angling APCBC cant penetrate the front and due to long reload time i dont think it needs more HE
