HOME Are the speeds of the SABOT, HEAT, and hand held AT rockets different??
Or do they all move through the air at the same speed?

Perm Banned at own request.
I think that they are all the same in the game.
I think SABOt and HEAT rounds fired from a cannon move at about the same speed, but I'm fairly certain hand held weapons like the LAW, RPG etc. are significantly slower, just as in real life.
That's definitely true of the game - any round from a tank cannon will move extremely quickly - you don't hardly have to lead your target at all. A LAW or RPG will move slow enough to track and you have to lead a moving target by a long way.
Shots fired from the tanks (SABOT and HEAT) move alot quicker than portable AT-weapons. You must have noticed that if you played the game.
IRL a SABOT-round travels something like 3-4 km/sec. Pretty fast...A portable AT-rocket, like a LAW, travels way slower. Something like 150 m/sec...
I´m sure that BIS taken this into account...

Maximum Effective Ranges
-Stationary Target ...... 200 meters (660 feet)
-Moving Target........... 165 meters (541 feet)
(Beyond these ranges, there is less than a fifty percent chance of hitting the target.)
and Muzzle Velocity........... 144.8 mps (475fps)
As for the Sabot I am not sure of the speed... maybe someone can find info on it. Engagement ranges approaching 4000 meters were successfully demonstrated during Operation Desert Storm. Sabot
