The APCBC should be the preferred option given a selection of full-calibre solid shot rounds, when available, and should be situationally switched for APHE rounds when they're available. US rounds usually have explosive filler, acting like an APHEBC shell, while British and French rounds don't. As such, APCBC rounds tend to exhibit the best all-round characteristics of any conventional kinetic rounds.ĪPCBC is a common shell for British, French and American mid-to-late WW2 vehicles. Generally, solid AP does not stop until it has exhausted all of its force and is capable of passing through an entire vehicle if this energy is not fully expended.ĪPCBC rounds combine the standard cap and the ballistic cap, improving the round's aerodynamic and penetration performance. The amount of spalling generated by a successful AP penetration depends on the shell mass and thickness of the penetrated armour and modules. The result is a simple, yet effective anti-tank round that will punch through armour with high equivalent thickness values, while retaining reasonable post-penetration effects which, when well-placed, can deal significant internal damage to components and crew directly within the shrapnelling path.

Solid AP rounds are a kinetic munition that utilise a hardened metal (often steel) shell with full-calibre diameter. Under the right circumstances, solid kinetic rounds can penetrate multiple vehicles along their trajectory. Most kinetic rounds can hit targets through lighter obstacles - trees, walls and some buildings.

Mass, shell type and hardness are constants, but velocity reduces with distance travelled and as such at longer ranges kinetic rounds will lose penetration ability and in some cases post-penetration efficacy. Kinetic rounds penetrate and deal damage based on a number of factors shell type, projectile mass, round velocity and material hardness.
