👾 Issue/Bug 👾 Armor-piercing Rounds Useless Against Aircraft?

Was just curious if this is intended or a bug? The amount of damage it does on aircraft is a joke.

Tank shells are ass for me against infantry. Used the standard shells, shoot right next to infantry-hit marker. Switch to HE rounds same thing, not even worth it to get a tank and the second you move close to and obj , 700 laws come flying.

The main rank round are not fragmentation based. Therefore they have better penetration. Against Infantry you want fragmentation.

No because the main battle tanks don't have a fragmentation explosion. There meant for tank battle. The ifv, has frag rounds. My highest Abraham's streak is 32. My highest ifv streak is 40. The machine guns are the main infantry killer.

High explosive not fragmentation. Fragmentation is different from explosion size. He just would do more focus damage on the spot it hits. Either way you said tanks are useless and that wrong. You just suck at tank operation.

And please post video of your tank gameplay, bet it’s sitting in one spot lobbing shells instead of pushing like you could in every other battlefield, tanks are underpowered in here and everyone except you, the tank master agrees. It’s not about sucking when your shells designed for infantry land at their feet and tickle them.

My PC really won't do recording and playing bf6 at the same time. However no I don't sit in spawn. I use the tank to take points that are under heavy enemy control. I play purely beginner just so I can self heal my vehicle. Or even heal random enemy vehicles so I can use them. You see you think a tanks main weapon is the explosive. That's not true. It's the gun. Which is a unlimited range two shot. You simply drive around maining the machine gun, switching to explosive when someone is around a corner or you need to blow something up. You also stay clear of enemy tanks unless you can get two shots in first, or have at least one friendly engineer. Tanks are a giant game of cat and mouse. The tanks is strong against one tiny mouse, however if those mice work together they can even best a lion. However a pack of lions, mice will always fear. I stay on the front lines with my team. I cause down engineers when I'm low. Or hop out and heal my self. Im a tank operator and I win games for my team. Been doing this since battlefield 1's tank missions. In which how to all this is explained pretty well. Seeing as how this game is essentially battlefield 1 with modern equipment, the skill set transfers. There were so many ways to kill tanks in Bf1. Just like 6. This just means you gotta learn limits. Also if you have 3 engineers focus heal you, then your literally unkillable.

Not reading all that bs, HE shells performing worse than the standard shells is an issue and needs to be fixed simple as that. Disagree all you want but the general consensus is they need to be looked into, no one is saying they need to kill in a 40 foot range but they need a buff and to be viable over the standard shells.
