In-game description
A 12.7x55mm PS12B special cartridge with an 18 gram subsonic armor-piercing bullet with a heat-strengthened steel core with a two-layer semi-jacket, a lead interior and a bimetallic exterior, in a brass case. This cartridge was designed in the early 2010s to provide the ASh-12 assault rifle with capabilities to neutralize hostile personnel equipped with basic and intermediate ballistic body protection, in addition to providing a significant stopping power effect due to its caliber and being able to inflict substantial adverse effects on the target after impact. However, due to its design, it has a high probability of bouncing off various surfaces.
Against which armor
Penetration 46 is above the resistance of class 4 armor (40) — while such armor is intact, the round penetrates it more often than not. Against class 5, penetrations are rare until the armor is worn down.
For example, the vests it can defeat: 6B23-2 body armor (Mountain Flora), Interceptor OTV body armor (UCP), 6B13 assault armor (Flora). The full table is in the armor classes guide.
