OK, the two cannons with 1000m/s initial velocity supposedly require turrets as large as that required by 100 and 122mm guns. But what about the 900m/s "BM"? Seems like a reasonable upgrade for T-34/85 and T-44, since the enemy armor can only increase and these two tanks can't take the 100mm gun very well.arkhangelskhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15247250672432027166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030145265861917845.post-22309958800513528822013-11-10T12:47:26.433-05:002013-11-10T12:47:26.433-05:00"BL-10 is a little lower than the value in th..."BL-10 is a little lower than the value in the first article of this series;...'<br /><br />In the first article on the OBM-53 152 mm gun is not the BL-10. The BL-10 is based on the BL-7 field gun, and the BL-7 is based on the 152 mm BR-2 gun. OBM-53 is based on the 152 mm B-38 Pattern 1938 naval gun. The BR-2 and the B-38 in different guns.<br /><br />Which are projectiles used this guns. No data is available about this? <br /><br />I think:<br />85 mm guns maybe BR-365.<br />All 122 mm guns use BR-471B. <br />The 130 mm S-26 use maybe the old 130 mm PB-46 (Semi Armor Piercing, model 1928), or a PB-46 variant, not the BR-482. The BR-482 is later (~1948). The 130 mm S-70 now have use the BR-482 and the penetration with this ammo: 230 mm - 1000 meter.<br />And 152 mm BL-10 use BR-540 or BR-540B.<br /><br />And sorry, my english is not too good.<br /><br />DavidAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5030145265861917845.post-84755054994024544872013-11-10T00:16:47.531-05:002013-11-10T00:16:47.531-05:00D10-85?
