Just some of them are less applicable to measure feats. I'm lazy so I'm just putting these into the Kinetic Energy Calculator.įitting for a somewhat advanced yet still an ordinary projectile.Ĭlick to expand.Actually, there's no such thing as banned calculation methods. Which is according to the wiki has the projectile weight of 425 grams.īy using the square-cube law, we can guess the projectile weight of a similar but 36mm diameter shell: ![]() It's a 30mm Gatling Gun which incidentally has an infamous round with depleted uranium penetrator, the PGU-14/B. ![]() To our luck, real world already has something which is like the little brother of the Assault Cannon, the GAU-8 Avenger: That'd be difficult without knowing the shell's internals. To know the velocity of those 36mm shells we'd need to know their weight, first. Thankfully this is a calculation blog so you're going to get the answer very soon. So the Assault Cannon's projectiles should be at least in the similar range, as well. More importantly, modern APDSFS shells are known to be hypersonic in speed. That's roughly 1/3rd of the energy of modern APDSFS shells.Ĭonsidering those are in the 120-125 mm caliber, the Assault Cannon does pretty well here. ![]() The previous calc showed that the Assault Cannon's shells possess 2.186 Mj of energy.
