WiTE2 Data:
Range: 3000 yards (9000 ft)
Max Ceiling: 21000 ft
Eff Ceiling: 15000 ft (5000 yards)
Rate of Fire: 50
----------------
Range appears too low. Converting to feet puts Range at 9000 ft. It is my understanding that this is "effective" range used in fire against non-aircraft targets.
Several sources list 7100 yards as the "max" range.
However, "effective" range will be less than "max" range, but should at least be equal to or greater than "effective" ceiling".
(every known system, effective range is greater than effective ceiling - makes sense as there is less gravity to fight, correct?)
quote:
as a rule of thumb:
effective ceiling <= effective range <= max range
in this instance:
5000 yards <= effective range <= 7100 yards
Just based on this alone, WiTE2 Range should be at least 5000 yards. (even this is most certainly less than historical)
Regarding Rate of Fire:
quote:
The Flak 18 was only produced in small numbers, and production had already ended in 1936. Development continued, focusing on replacement of the existing cumbersome dual-axle mount with a lighter single-axle one, resulting in a 3.7 cm Flak 36 that cut the complete weight to 1,550 kg (3,420 lb) in combat and 2,400 kg (5,300 lb) in transport. The gun's ballistic characteristics were not changed, although the practical rate of fire was raised to 120 rpm (250 rpm theoretical)
Rate of Fire needs to be reviewed and possibly raised.
--------------
Conclusion:
1. Range should be raised to at least 5000 yards.
2. Rate of Fire may need to be raised to 120.
---------------
Please review and adjust game data accordingly.
