In-game description
A 5.45x39mm PP gs (GRAU Index - 7N10) cartridge with a 3.5 gram bullet with a heat-strengthened steel core with lead cladding on the tip and bimetallic jacket, in a steel case. The PP bullet (Povýshennoy Probiváyemosti - "Increased Penetration") was designed in the 1990s as an upgraded version of the one used in the 5.45x39mm PS gs cartridge, as a longer and narrower tempered steel core was chosen, allowing it to pierce through basic ballistic body protections as well as some intermediate models, however, due to its design, it has a high bounce probability off various surfaces.
Against which armor
Penetration 34 is above the resistance of class 3 armor (30) — while such armor is intact, the round penetrates it more often than not. Against class 4, penetrations are rare until the armor is worn down.
For example, the vests it can defeat: BNTI Kirasa-N body armor, 6B23-1 body armor (EMR), BNTI Zhuk body armor (Press). The full table is in the armor classes guide.
