Default 150mm KwK 44 L/38 and 170mm KwK 44 L/71

I'm playing around with some "what-if" scenarios and I'm wondering if someone have an educated guess of how much the AP and HEAT rounds for the 150mm KwK 44 and the 170mm KwK 44 could penetrate in game-terms ?

I would move this to the correct sub-forum, but there is a problem with the moderator function at the moment.

Please refer to the description of the sub-forums, that for the TO&E reads

Oh I'm sorry, forgive my ignorance. Well, so nobody has an educated guess on this matter ? Are there any modern 150mm or 170mm tank guns that could be used as guidance ?

I have some guesses for you, but I'm at work and all my X Force stuff is at home. I'll post what I have come up with. I've "developed" a 10 cm KwK, 10.5 cm KwK for example plus a 105mm for the Allies.

Stay tuned, Out

AFAIR WWII HEAT penetration was around 100-300% of warhead diameter.

Have my guesstimate only for 15cm SprGr.TS (APDS shell):

Mass (projectile + sabot): 15.7 kg
Mass (projectile): 11 kg (est.)
Velocity: 834 mps

Penetration 18 cm @ 0 hex.
Range 95 hexes

For HEAT, AFAIK German 15cm HEAT got some 21cm penetration.
