Welcome to the remastered Tank Ammo Guide. In this video, I explain every tank shell in the game, from the most common to the most obscure, to even ones that aren't classified in-game. There are a whole bunch of different shells, and it's easy to get confused about them. That's why I spent a lot of time explaining how they work in detail and provided 3D animations to help you understand how they work. If anything's unclear or you need more information, don't hesitate to leave a comment. Once again, massive thanks to the War Thunder Wiki for providing a lot of info. The video wouldn't have been possible without all the contributors. Check it out here: https://wiki.warthunder.com/Tank_ammu...
I definitely should've started working on this video earlier, but hey, ammo types part 7. Or is it technically 3.5?

The more you know
1. The shells that don't pen
2. The shells that simply disappear when they hit
3. The shells that pen but only cause one component to go yellow
Edit: I actually forgot the fourth type of shell that everybody else has that will always one shot me XD

Thank you all for 50k subscribers!
Updated information will go here as they come, in the meantime, thank you all for 50k <3
── Updates ──
- APDS seems to have gotten its petals back, but only for large caliber shells and not autocannons
── Corrections ──
- In real life, the cap on APC doesn't actually normalize the shell, it just reduces the chance of shattering. In-game though, the shell's path is modeled in a way that it normalizes.
