Default Re: Czech OOB 5.5

Supplement:

Weapon 111 152mm D-20 FH - should be changed to 152mm M77 FH used in Dana SP-howitzer. Range is 18.7 km (209?), with base bleed rounds - 20 km (210?).

By the way, I don't know if basic D-20 FH in other oobs should have range 214 - its normal range is 17.4 km, and 24 km only with rocket assisted(?) rounds.

Miscellaneous weapon comments:

06, 07, 08 - correct form is "vz.", not "vz/"

028 RPG-75 - range against moving target is 200 m, but against still target - 300 m (now: 4) http://forum.valka.cz/viewtopic.php/t/21864 (I don't know if it should be changed, just for information).

053 7.62 SGMT AAMG - proper designation of AAMG variant was SGMB (for all countries)

218 7.62mm vz59 MMG - is kill 7 justified, higher than water-cooled Maxim (5), SG-43 (6) and PKS from Soviet oob (6)?

BTW: shouldn't Maxim have higher kill ratio than other MGs, since it was able of sustained fire for longer time? Same for Vickers HMG in the British oob (5). As I see, Maxim and Vickers differ from other MMGs in having a longer range (30 vs 24), but is it correct, with the same ammunition? Or is it a matter of heavy mounts? Just a few thoughts...

Michal
