The ISU-152-2 was a prototype tank destroyer from WWII, armed with one of the most powerful tank cannons in history, the 152mm BL-10.
Compared to the standard ISU-152's gun/howitzer, which was already considered a "beast slayer", the BL-10 launched its AP projectiles with around DOUBLE the kinetic energy.
In the simulation, the Tiger II's UFP had been modelled as good quality 240BHN rolled homogenous armour (RHA). The BR-540B armour piercing high explosive ballistic cap (APHEBC) projectile has been modelled to follow the hardening profile of similar Soviet rounds of the era (250-300BHN lower body progressing up to ~450BHN at the nose).
It should be noted that various sources provide conflicting information on the muzzle velocity, with it being taken as 850m/s for the simulation. The range of 750m was derived from this muzzle velocity.
Also, while 150mm @50° 750m may seem more than the experimental ~200mm @0° 1000m, the penetration criteria is much different, with the experimental data requiring a significant amount of the projectile's mass to pass through the target. (which evidently would require a lot less than 150mm @50° to happen, as nearly none passes through in the simulation)

@@kanalegrande831 Precisely. The Tiger-2 would have a rate of fire of at least 6 to 7.5 rounds per minute (10 seconds to 8 seconds between shots on average including time for re-aiming). The ISU-152 only 2 to 3.(30 seconds to 20 seconds rather optimistically they are two piece rounds). so the ISU-152 can fire at best one round every 20 seconds but more likely 30 seconds. The Tiger 2 can fire a second round after only 5.7 seconds for the first few easy to reach rounds so long as the loader drops the rounds on the floor rather than throwing them out the roof discharge hatch. -The range finder of the day was and stedometric range finder but in reality is to observe the fall of shot and then adjust for the second shot which would be the one that stood a good chance of hitting. The Tiger 2 could get of 3 shots before the ISU-152 could get of its secondhand it would have 4 seconds to spare. Of course it could use the time to move under cover.. Ballistics is probably the same after 2000m. The Tiger 2 will win this duel on most occasions due to 'soft factors'. No Tiger 2 was ever penetrated from the front.

Just for reference, that gun is actually getting quite close to the kind of muzzle energies of actual light cruiser guns of the era. The shell's on the light end for the calibre, but still, it's no joke

@rare_kumiko Год назад

At 48kg and 850 m/s it actually beats the American 6"/47 and almost beats the British 6"/50 (both were on the low end of muzzle energy but were great, combat-proven guns), although it falls short of the German 150 mm and the Japanese 155 mm guns.

@@yoshineitor Just to clarify, I'm not saying this 152mm gun is actually a naval gun btw - I assumed it had been built from scratch. Also, was the IS-7's gun actually a modified naval gun? I'm well aware 130mm was a common calibre for soviet destroyer main guns, but that doesn't necessarily mean it is a naval gun of course. I think it's generally fair to say that most naval guns are built too heavy to really work well in armoured vehicles. Most tank guns are actually very light if you compare them to naval guns of the same overall qualities

@@thiagorodrigues5211 What are you talking about. How could sloped armor disappear because of HEAT when slopped was just as good against HEAT since it increases the effective thickness of the plate and thus the amount of steel the jet has to go through. Only difference is that HEAT projectile can't really ricochet (unless the warhead doesn't properly go off). Sloped armor was already used on most WW1 tanks you could think of, was used on Ironclad warships in the 19th century and was even used on that Da Vinci's tank design from the 15th century. I'm sure you could find even earlier examples if you dig deep enough.

@@Niitroxyde Because HEAT didn't just penetrate 100mm anymore. It penetrated 400mm which means it was impossible for any tank to carry as much armor as needed.

So again, how was HEAT the downfall of sloped armor in particular ? And how are tanks "useless" ? People have been calling tanks obsolete since the end of World War I, yet they're still here and further designs are being worked on in militaries around the world, so they're definitely here to stay for at least this century still. Not to sound too pompous but you need to open a book or two on the matter, bud.

ISU 152 can pen Jumbo and Panther UFP up to around 3.3km + a slight angle of 20deg OBJ 268 can about 50% of the time penetrate a TIGER 2 through the UFP at 10m at no angle, which is extremly unlikely scenario, but its possible, and if the ISU 152 2 were to be added, it would be like 7.0 or 7.3.

@carlblack8574 Год назад

The OBJ 268 152mm APHEBC is amazing against Tiger II's and Jagdtigers. Even at 1000 meters, you can easily one shot them if you manage to hit the LFP. If i'm not mistaken, the LFP is only 100mm thick, so your massive 152mm APHEBC shell has no issues overmatching that armor.

This could be countered by adding a thinner plate of armour with a slight space in between them to disperse just enough energy so when it reaches the main armour, it doesn't penetrate. (if the ISU-152 did become available in numbers to encounter Tiger 2's regularly). But by the time Tiger 2's were a problem, the war was already in a phase that Germans had to look up rather then in front when it comes to things that could destroy their heavy tanks (fighter-bombers). And of course, with so little fuel around, Tiger 2's barely moved around to be a real problem to the allies. And if they did... Here comes a fighter-bomber and there goes another German tank blown to bits.

It doesn't penetrate but the spall can still inflict damage

@Rendell001 11 месяцев назад

The spalling alone would be horific for the crew inside...

wow... the tiger II still "tanked" that shot quite well!!

@worldoftancraft Год назад

If you call a ripping of a huge spot of skin plus cloud full of tiny splinters "tanking" then the hell is a tank?

@Aknayelth Год назад

@@worldoftancraftcalm down buddy, we are just impressed that it didn't penetrate it completely

@TheAllKnowNoble Год назад

Very funny

@DaddysBelt92 Год назад

I dunno man it seems that those chunks leaving the armor aren't gonna be friendly to the crew Inside. No tanking at all. The tank got eviscerated simply

@Revnge7Fold Год назад

@@DaddysBelt92 I meant it like for such a powerful round you would expect it to go though like a hot knife through butter, but it still bounced.

Вы показываете идеальные условия.В реале к 1944 г.нацистов отрезали от источников никеля,берилия и вольфрама,поэтому броня их танков лопалась ,как стекло....

@sangomasmith Год назад

It would be interesting to see what this shell would do at range. Alternatively; I just checked, and I don't think you've done a 'normal' 152mm against a Tiger II UFP...

@SYsimulations Год назад

I think there's an image of a normal 152 impact on a tiger II on tank archives. It just leaves a massive scoop shaped dent

Вроде как использование фугасного 152 мм снаряда даёт больший эффект.

holy BL-10

@ks29earl Год назад

The regular 152 mm howitzer-gun M1937 (ML-20) of the SU-152/ISU-152 never penetrated the front glacis of the Tiger II. Its MV was 655m/s/ While the shock value was there, the penetration was not. Could the BL-20 at 800m/s (1946) penetrated? I dont know. 800m/sec was still not HV. I would think that it would concuss the crew and yes, crack some poor welds. Penetrate? Unless it had a different warhead/material, probably not.
