In-game description
A 5.56x45mm NATO M995 cartridge with a 3.4 gram armor-piercing bullet with a tungsten carbide penetrator over an aluminum base with a copper jacket, in a brass case. This cartridge was designed during the 1990s to provide United States Army personnel with capabilities to pierce light covers and light vehicles, as well as basic and intermediate ballistic body protections, in addition to providing outstanding results against some specialized protection models. However, due to its design, it has a significant bounce probability on various surfaces.
Against which armor
Penetration 53 is above the resistance of class 5 armor (50) — while such armor is intact, the round penetrates it more often than not. Against class 6, penetrations are rare until the armor is worn down.
For example, the vests it can defeat: IOTV Gen4 body armor (Full Protection Kit, MultiCam), IOTV Gen4 body armor (Assault Kit, MultiCam), FORT Redut-M body armor. The full table is in the armor classes guide.
