Anti-tank guided missiles
Panzerabwehrlenkraketen are implemented according to their real role models in the game. In other words, they occupy an ever richer and more reliable role in combat enemy armored vehicles in the armed forces as the timeline progresses.
The information contained in Cold War Europe anti-tank guided missiles are as LW ( missiles ) , PAL or PALR ( anti-tank guided missile ) called. There is almost exclusively that of the first and second generation, the first rocket of the third generation came in the late eighties in circulation.
First-generation missiles were for example the SS.10, SS.11, Entac, MBB Cobra, AT-1, AT-2 or AT-third Characteristic of this active steering systems (MCLOS = Manual Command to Line of Sight) was the manual control via joystick, the rockets were connected by a wire to the starter. The objectives had over the entire duration of the flight weapons until their impact are kept in mind. In addition, almost all of these missiles had an effective impact area of at least 500 meters, so that they were virtually ineffective at close range. Usually the penetration performance of shaped charge grenades with which the rockets were almost exclusively populated, regardless of distance.
(As the handling required much training and the hitting of moving targets much skill values are higher the distance is noticeably smaller and have been adjusted downwards.)
Missiles of the second generation were for example the Milan, HOT, TOW, Vigilant, AT-4, AT-5, AT-6 or Dragon. These semi -active guidance systems ( SACLOS = Semi-Automatic Command to Line of Sight) only had the objectives to be kept in sight during the missile during flight its trajectory corrected automatically. Most systems were still controlled by wire, some more modern like the Hellfire AGM on lasers were the current impact areas already partly below 100 meters.
(Since the shooter was not as strong demand and the ever- reliable weapons systems had a higher first hit fall far from the values at long distances from barely.)
The third generation is known as fire-and -forget missile systems such as the AGM Hellfire II or the AT -14. These passive steering systems to pursue their goals with their sensors either optical, laser or radar , a line of sight of the shooter to the target is no longer required.
RHA
RHA (English: rolled homogeneous armor = rolled homogeneous armor) denotes a theoretically assumed steel armor. This unit is used for rough comparison of military vehicle armor and the penetrating power of bullets. RHA is based on the armored vehicles of the Second World War, their armor still consisted of rolled or cast steel and could easily be stated in mm.
The ever-progressing development of shaped-charge or sabot bullets showed the vulnerability of the tanks, as these missiles the previous armor easily pierced. Great experience has been gained from the Arab-Israeli wars and ushered in a new development.
The first tank to be equipped with a novel composite armor was the Soviet T-64. He was in his introduction the most protected tanks in the world.
Modern armor consist among other things of various alloys, ceramics or armor in bulkhead construction. Another possibility is the reactive armor (ERA ) represents here are small tiles or placed on the main armor. Reactive targets are mainly found in Soviet types. Partly as different systems were combined.
All of these are given in armor RHA to obtain generally comparable values. The RHA amount then but not the actual thickness!
The actual RHA protection against modern battle tank shelling subject still largely secrecy, so the values of the newer types specially appreciated for various sources!
