Sounds interesting. 🙂

I will be making some spaced armor for the hull and turret.The real M10 series had mounting areas for spaced armor,but it wasn't used for the most part. 😀 😛

Interesting. What is spaced armor? 🙂

 

[General Zod]

Interesting. What is spaced armor? 🙂

The principal behind spaced armor was,the outer shell of armor would cause an armor piercing shell to explode early,before it got to the main armor. I doubt if spaced armor would have worked against the high velocity 75mm,or 88mm German tank guns.

The modern version of it is called reactive armor.It detonates anti tank missiles. 😀 😛

Thanks for the explanation my friend.

Sounds very interesting but I think you are right spaced armor would not work against more powerful guns. 😀

You're welcome my friend.The time frame I am putting the M10 in is,late 1942,early 1943.That was before a lot of German tanks had the more powerful guns. 😀 😛
