APCR

Short for Armour Piercing Composite Rigid, this is a type of tank shell that uses a soft external casing to enclose a dense kinetic-energy penetrator which can pierce heavy armour. It’s infamous in War Thunder for being unreliable, as the shrapnel damage caused by the round’s core is small and often doesn’t injure crew. The concept of this sort of round was improved upon with the introduction of Armour Piercing Discarding Sabot (APDS) rounds.

Damn, I do hate using APCR rounds in War Thunder.

Spahpanzer SP.I C

A West German light tank destroyer prototype armed with a 90mm cannon, developed in the 1950s. It was designed to be small, mobile, and air-droppable, allowing them to easily ambush mass Soviet armoured attacks.

It’s available in World of Tanks and World of Tanks Blitz as a Tier 7 light tank, notable for poor armour but great mobility and stealth.

I know World War 2 prototypes are cool, b it have you heard of the Spahpanzer SP.I C?

Ki-45

A Japanese fighter used in World War Two. There were four major production variants. These are:

Ki-45 Kai-Ko (A): Initial escort fighter variant armed with 2x 12.7mm Ho-103 Machine Guns and 1x 20mm Ho-3 cannon.

Ki-45 Kai-Otsu (B): Kai-Kos fitted with a Type 94 37mm cannon instead of the Ho-3.

Ki-45 Kai-Hei (C): Anti-Shipping type armed with 1x Ho-3 and 1x 37mm Ho-201 cannons.

Ki-45 Kai-Tei (D): Night Fighter armed with 1x Ho-201 in nose as well as 2x 20mm Ho-5 cannons in a Schräge Musik mounting behind the pilot’s seat.

Used from 1942 until the war’s end, these aircraft proved somewhat successful, with over 1600 aircraft built. This makes the most produced Japanese twin-engined fighter of the war.

Have you seen the Ki-45 at the Udvar-Hazy Center?
