The 3 inch Gun M5 was an anti-tank gun developed in the United States during World War II. The gun combined a 3-inch (76.2 mm) barrel of the anti-aircraft gun T9 and elements of the 105 mm howitzer M2. The M5 was issued exclusively to the US Armytank destroyer battalions starting in 1943.

The tables below give the penetration figures of the most common German guns used to combat armored vehicles.

  2. During World War II, under the direction of its Command Surgeon, Colonel Malcolm C. Army Eighth Air Force pioneered the development of modern body armor. 3 In 1943, bomber pilots and aircrew in the ‘Mighty Eighth’ began receiving an armored vest manufactured in Great Britain. 4 Incorporating two-inch square manganese steel plates, sewn into a canvas vest, it protected.

Some of these guns saw limited used, while other, such as the Czechoslovak 37 mm and 47 mm guns, and the Russian 76.2 mm guns, became an integral part of the German arsenal.

When using the test results, it is important to bear in mind the following:

  • Test plates were placed at an angle of 60 degrees from horizontal, to simulate how perfect alignment is rarely possible in combat.
  • The tests from which the numbers were taken generally use high-quality armor plates and ammunition. Real numbers could therefore vary in combat conditions.
  • Some of the ammunition types were very rare. As the war progressed, German tungsten supplies became very low. As a result, APCR ammunition production was either halted, or switched to less effective hardened steel.

what is armor inspector

Armor Inspector is an application for World of Tanks game, including PC, Blitz and Console versions. Armor Inspector is available online, on mobiles iOS/Android and on PC.

Armor Inspector can show you armor thickness models (World of Tanks collision models), displays crew and modules locations, including ammo racks, fuel tanks, engines. It has penetration calculator that helps you understand why and how you can penetrate the enemy tank.

There are also more functions in the app, besides just pen calculator and modules locations. The app can show World of Tanks visual models, complete tanks specs, can show and estimate damage from HE ammo, can estimate ramming damage and more. With the Armor Inspector you can compare WoT tanks and check the difference visually in armor and specs.

how to use armor inspector

There is a menu on the left where you can select the app mode.

X-ray allows you to see the WoT collision models, WoT modules locations and WoT visual models. Here you can check the thickness of every armor plate.

Confrontation helps you learn WoT penetration mechanics. Here you can select the shooter and target tanks and simulate the shot to any given point. The app shows all tank weak spots interactively.

Collision is for measuring how much damage you can deal (and take) by ramming.

Don't forget to set the game version in the Settings, whether it's PC, Blitz or Console.

The basic tools can be tried for free. However we are two players and we're not backed by Wargaming in any way and have to extract and find all the information ourselves. It costed us tremendous amount of time and money to make this app for your and also it costs us money to operate this website and serve the HD data for the app.

X-ray mode is available to everyone for free. Confrontation has high tier tanks locked. Collision mode has some nations locked.

If you like the app, consider visit the shop. With your support we can update the data for the app and bring you more awesome tools and services.
