![]() ![]() ![]() The purpose was to pop the hardened steel cap off the AP shells and cause the rest of the shell to disintegrate upon impact with the Class A steel. Mainly the 1.5" thick STS steel decapping plate attached to the hull of the ship on the Iowa, and 1.25" decapping plate on the SoDaks. This armor value ignores a number of other designs on the USN Fast BB's post North Carolina (So South Dakota and Iowa in real life and Montana in game). WG says the Iowa's only had 12.1" of belt armor. At any rate, the Iowa, and Montana are missing some of their armor. I did notice that the Montana was far far far easier to get more citadels on at range than the Yamato was and I suspect this has a lot to do with how the game represents hits to the super structure. I did some updated tests a few days ago and the number of pens was tolerable. At least the Mark 8 seems to finally be penning like it should. ![]()
