@@Tiger01 Yeah, like pretty much anywhere on the side of the fighting compartment of a Sherman. But not in S44. "could a puma's 50mm cannon penetrate the side hull of a sherman? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT Yes, a Puma's 50mm cannon could penetrate the side hull of a Sherman tank under certain conditions. The Sd.Kfz. 234/2 "Puma" was equipped with a 50mm KwK 39/1 L/60 gun, which had a decent armor penetration capability for its time. When firing armor-piercing rounds, the 50mm KwK 39/1 could penetrate up to approximately 60-70mm of armor at a range of 100 meters. The side hull armor of the Sherman tank (M4 series) varied depending on the model but was generally around 38-50mm thick. Given these factors, at close to medium range and with an optimal angle of attack, the Puma's 50mm cannon had the potential to penetrate the Sherman's side armor, particularly on earlier models like the M4A1 or M4A2. However, at longer ranges or against later models with improved armor or applique armor plates, penetration would be less likely. You said: what thickness could it penetrate at 500m? ChatGPT said: ChatGPT At 500 meters, the 50mm KwK 39/1 L/60 gun on the Puma would have reduced armor penetration compared to closer ranges. Typically, at 500 meters, the 50mm KwK 39/1 could penetrate around 40-50mm of armor, depending on the type of ammunition used and the angle of impact. This means that at 500 meters, the Puma's 50mm cannon could still potentially penetrate the side hull of a Sherman tank, especially the earlier models with thinner side armor (around 38-50mm). However, as the range increases or if the angle of impact is less than ideal, the likelihood of penetration decreases. Against later Sherman models or at a higher angle of impact, penetration at this range would be less probable." S44 is arcade skill-stealing trash.
I've penned plenty of Shermans on the side in Squad 44 with the Puma. But when they're angled the armor thickness plays a big factor and makes it much harder
As far as i remeber there is just one ap bouncer in this video but yeah specially ap shells from high calibers like 7,5 and even 8,8cm are bouncing way to often in my opinion ;)

That Puma knew what he was doing.
@@Sunesen Yes, he was like rommels ghost division ;)
@Sunesen Yeah. Shame it's 50mm cannon can't do in the game what a real one could.
@@Panzerlang You can, you just have to hit the right spots ;)

0:30 Tiger, I'm officially fucking proud. "Somebody is shooting AT us." Not on. Eine kleine Träne rinnt mir gerade aus dem Augenwinkel!
@@TheRealPugeHenis Haha, hab extra dran gedacht!
Another banger 💪
✌️
No way you destroyed that Panzer 4 at this distance! You are a freak :D
Haha
Tiger 1 straight outta Fury scene. Awesome mate! I love your tank videos!
Thanks mate :)
Awesome video as Always! :D
@@OperatorJackYT Thanks ;)
Good tank crew! Sherman is fast and got firepower best tank in the game or maybe the Pershing one of these two ^^
Pershing is awesome :)
Good round but allied tanks are too op in Squad 44. German tanks shoot with plastic balls in Squad 44, that's getting annoying!
Yeah, sometimes its weird how 88 shells are bouncing thats true :)
May I ask how old you are?😮
Way to old in the mid 30s ;)
@@Tiger01 Do you have a wife? I am also 30 years old and I don’t even have a wife

I was about to tell the same, great game, but the tanks look way too nerfed. Probably balance reasons, however it takes from the experience for me.
