WW2 HESH PIRATE GUN VS. HIGH TIER

The Lancia 3Ro 100/17 in War Thunder is the LOWEST tier vehicle that fires the mighty HESH shell! Hesh is a High Explosive Squad Head that basically makes contact with the target, squishes and then detonates and sends a nasty shockwave into the structure of the metal which in turn sends shrapnel flying around the inside of the tank!
In War Thunder though, it's something truly special. Just a tiny bit of penetration and you can say goodbye to your crew with overpressure!
Rather than take this War Thunder Meme Vehicle to Battle Rating 1.7 I decided it would be much more fitting at Battle Rating 5.0 and above for that extra challenge! :)

Imagine if Gaijin would make HESH work properly how it does in IRL. Gaijin HESH isn't just a HE with different color and name. The HESH was so good that i think in Gulf war British used nothing else but HESH due to how effective it was in taking out tanks.

[@BitchenMarsRockstar]

They did when the british tree was first introduced, but all the IS-6 players whined and screamed and cried until it was reduced to it's current state.

[@Kminek246]

@@BitchenMarsRockstar like always some kids on forums need to cry because their tanks aren't as it said in documentary. It would be so amazing if the HESH work how it suppose to. Let's take the Lancia. If I remember correctly you got 110mm (or is it thr heat that has the 110mm of pen?)of pen with it. You would be able kill pretty much Amy tank/heavy tanks around 5.7. Even Jumbos would be easy kill.

[@DatBoi_TheGudBIAS]

Idk if they will buff it, but it isn't just HE with a yellow hat, it conserves its pen in all angles and is extremely effective in angled armor

[@Kminek246]

@@DatBoi_TheGudBIAS yeah. So not only it should be almost impossible for it to bounce because the head of the round squash on the armore, explode but it send all that shock into the armore causing it to crack and shrapnel into the tank. That's in easy terms how the shell works. I would say it would be much more effective then heat shell.

[@DatBoi_TheGudBIAS]

@@Kminek246 ik ur frustration, but as a fun fact, u gotta test hesh. In the hitcam, look closely, ull see the hesh round (when hitting sloped areas and not ricocheting) does almost 90º turn to be perpendicular to the armor, like if it was hitting at 0º, dats why it has all angles with same pen

[@ODST_Parker]

I've been taking some downtime at work to read up on pre-WWII and early-war vehicles, and apparently there are two or three more gun trucks we could possibly see added to the game, one of them being their awesome 90mm cannon. A 90/53 Lancia 3Ro would be somewhat equivalent to the German 8.8cm Flak 37 Sfl. and the Russian YaG-10 29-K, and I'd love to see it.

I’ve noticed in your play styles you usually adopt a supporting flanker role and I gotta say I’m taking notes. Seems the most effective way to play GRB

[@edwardking9359]

It's only effective if you have exceptional awareness, exceptional positioning, and know where to shoot. Also, unless you kill many enemies, you're not helping your team win.

Odd kills someone: Laughs maniacally. Odd dies: Laughs maniacally. Even-handed content creation! Also, is the ARL-44 that bad?

[@princekasper3328]

The ARL-44's are pretty good, actually. Both of them have times where they feel like its a Tank Destroyer playing as a Heavy tank and a Heavy tank playing as a tank destroyer. the 3.7 one will have a pretty decent time bouncing some shots.

[@theoneandonlyartyom]

the ammo placement is awful tho, 9/10 times you die its bc your ammo got hit

[@robertharris6092]

Its got a huge turret thats 100mm thick. With -5 depression. The hull can bounce long 88 shells when angled. But the turret is a trivial target to hit. And it has no overlapping plate bullshit like the panther does to artificially buff its survivablility.

Greeting Odd, thanks for getting better and better at making content. At least in my sphere, you and Defyn are really picking up for Phly, maybe that was planned? Anyway, why not drive in reverse with a truck within proximity to enemies in urban, or after contact has been established in an open area?

I absolutely love the perfect storm that created vehicles like this during WW2. You've got material and economic shortages, as well as industry and technology that's just capable enough to allow you to mount a massive cannon on a truck out of a combination of capability, desperation, and necessity. It's beautiful. You had to build stupid things like this because it was all you could AFFORD to build.

[@SeaRaven227]

It ain't stupid or desperation, it's mobile artillery. That truck wasn't built to engage tanks irl, it's an howitzer. It's a more convenient way to carry artillery as you don't need a gun carriage that you gotta tow using the same truck, that you got to unhook and set up before being able to shoot. Fun fact, irl the "HESH" was actually HEAT with the fuse set in the bottom of the shell instead of the tip.

[@duvagr007]

@@SeaRaven227 A fair point, but the Flak bus exists, and that WAS desperation because Germany needed a more powerful mobile AT gun in Russia. So both our points stand. And it is a ludicrous thing to behold regardless of its intended use.
