In-game description
A 7.62x54mm R T-46M gzh (GRAU Index - 7T2M) cartridge with a 9.6 gram lead core tracer bullet with a bimetallic jacket, in a bimetallic case; intended for target designation and fire adjustment in battle (Trace color: Green). This tracer cartridge is a modernized version of the T-46 model (GRAU Index - 7T2), as it provides longer distance tracing capabilities and has similar ballistic effectiveness to the LPS gzh cartridge (GRAU Index - 57-N-323S), because despite the bullet rudimentary design, it is able of piercing through basic and intermediate ballistic body protections in addition to providing a considerable stopping power effect, however, it has a significant bounce probability off various surfaces.
Against which armor
Penetration 41 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.
