Stats

In-game description

A 7.62x39mm US gzh (GAU Index - 57-N-231U) cartridge with a 12.6 gram subsonic bullet with a pointed heat-strengthened steel core over a lead base with a bimetallic jacket, in a bimetallic case with a reduced charge. This US cartridge (Umén'shennoy Skórosti - "Reduced Speed") was designed in the 1950s for use in conjunction with a suppressor, achieving an excellent noise reduction in addition to ensuring the cycle of Soviet 7.62x39mm caliber weaponry and, thanks to its design, the bullet is capable of piercing through basic ballistic body protections, however, it has a high bounce probability off various surfaces.

Against which armor

Penetration 29 is above the resistance of class 2 armor (20) — while such armor is intact, the round penetrates it more often than not. Against class 3, penetrations are rare until the armor is worn down.

For example, the vests it can defeat: 6B2 body armor (Flora), PACA Soft Armor, PACA Soft Armor (Rivals Edition). The full table is in the armor classes guide.
