Yeah, it works, but it could be so muc better.

That is why the LR sucks and why the Imperium is dumb for having it, even if it is made of the best materials in existence. The bullet will either strike the sharp edge (splitting in half and doing no damage, dispersing energy along the edge of the V), or it will strike the top or bottom and be deflected up or down, with minimal energy striking the steel. Set the V up so that the bottom sharp edge is facing you. Now take another plate with the exact same thickness and other dimensions, but fold it into a V-shape. Every single ounce of energy went straight into the steel plate. The bullet will shatter against it, but notice how the plate took the brunt of the force. Take a solid square of steel to a shooting range. Not because it looks wierd, but because of how flat and square it is. He's commenting on how bad the design is, and that there is a reason that design is no longer used in modern day militaries. Much more akin to a modern day tank than it's previous incarnation. Purely anti-personnel with the auto cannon variant and Punisher.Īlso, check the new models for the LR's. Anti-armor with the standard LBRT and Vanquisher. It has close-support variants in the Demolisher and Eradicator. Then again, a LR is a jack of all trades. In comparison to say a Merkava or Abrams, or even a T-90 I can agree with you that the profile is odd. So, worst AFV ever designed? Clearly not.Īs for practical use? Seeing as how the engine can run off of wood if need be, it's point-defense weapons are small-rocket-launching machine guns, and it's capable of use a giant laser to kill other tanks.I can't really comment.
