The StuK 40 penetration would probably be more bearable if they weren’t using the penetration data from penetrating a plate at 30 degrees from the vertical.

I just find the L/43 and L/48 (as well as the 5cm L/60) just so disappointing and worthless. Each one of these guns should get at least 10-15% increase to penetrating at 100m range.

I seem to remember reading some test done by the Americans finding the L/43 to be almost on par with the 3 inch M5 AT gun while the L/48 out preformed it.

And I was kinda hoping the Americans would get the concrete StuG IV

Don’t you think there are enough crossovers between Maus line and JpzE100 line already?

Is there anything known about the amount of Crew members?

Yes, And now just add a rough estimation of that 30 degrees from vertical calculation to 0 degree
106 x 1,15 = 121,9mm
-
1,15 is a rough estimation to convert 30 degree from vertical to perpendicular to the plate

SovietGaming strategy for german premium tanks:
Hey guys do you want your dear PzIV Vador (nerfed of course)? Yes? Ok, pay.
Hey guys do you want a stockest Panther than the regular stock one but with different look? Yes? Ok, pay.
Hey guys do you want a stockest JagdTiger than the stock regular one? Yes? Ok, pay
Hey guys do you want…
Same with Panther 2, same with StuG. At least JT88 and Panther F (will) have some assets (JT is nice cashmaker due to its tremendous RoF and gun and its T8 ranking, the Panther will perhaps be like this, more mobile, less armored)

And people still bying those jokes, being milked and happy to be fooled. Well done Sovietgaming.

Why would you even be taking a non-turreted TD into tank companies in the first place….
