In-game description
A 9x39mm SP-5 gs (GRAU Index - 7N8) special cartridge with a 16 gram subsonic bullet with a pointed steel core over a lead base with a bimetallic jacket, in a steel case. This cartridge was designed in the mid-1980s based on the 7.62x39mm US gzh cartridge for use in the VSS Vintorez special sniper rifle. Being capable of piercing through basic ballistic body protections as well as certain intermediate protection equipment, added to its outstanding stopping power effect, however, due to its design, it has a high probability of bouncing off various surfaces.
Against which armor
Penetration 28 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.
