Note that the penetration values below (displayed as "Rolled Homogenous Armor equivalent" in millimeters) are line of sight (LOS) estimations measured at the muzzle against a semi-infinite target meeting the specifications for a NATO single heavy type array. As the armor model of Steel Beasts Professional takes in to account armor angle along with velocity fall off due to range and armor composition, actual in-sim penetration values may vary considerably (generally lower) than what is listed. It should be noted that the penetration values for HE and incendiary rounds do not represent actual RHA equivalent perforation limits, but are instead provided for comparative purposes.

The "Range" column indicates a given round's "maximum effective range" and the cutoff range for AI engagements, not the round's maximum possible range. This value is derived from published data representing such factors as tracer burnout (small arms and HMG), ballistic computer limitations, or the round's performance degrading below the 50% probability of hit/kill threshold.

100mm D-10T: BR-412D APHE-T 1200 240 887 1953 Still in use by the Egypt and Syria in 1973 Yom Kippur War, since it was surplus ammo by that time and the BM-8 was expensive by comparison. It seems that the BM-8 was fielded exclusively by Warsaw Pact and Soviet units of the same period.

The T-55 with BR-412D should be used for all third world nations until the 1980s.
100mm D-10T: BM-8 HVAPDS-T 1700 300 1415 1968 Assumption: third world client states probably obtained this round in the mid to late 1980s.

105mm L7: L52 APDS-T 2500 300 1426 1973 The Leopard AS1 with L52 (or M728) is a good representation of a German Leopard 1A4 for 1974-77 scenarios.

For 1973 Yom Kippur War, the L52 was actually not available in large numbers but apparently a small amount were fielded by some units (the L36A1 was the abundant KE round used in that war).

105mm L7: M392 APDS-T 1800 270 1479 1961 This is the U.S. designation for the UK 105mm L36 round.
105mm L7: M728 APDS-T 2500 300 1426 1974 This is the U.S. designation for the UK 105mm L52 round.

105mm L7: M900 APFSDS-T 4000 650 1505 1989 Note that even though this round can be fired from older L7 cannons, due to its high chamber pressures and EFC (effective full charge) factor its use should be restricted the US M68A1 and later.
105mm L7: CMC105 APFSDS-T 3500 430 1501 1980s
105mm L7: DM23 APFSDS-T 3000 390 1455 1978 This is the German designation for the Israeli 105mm M111 round.

The Leopard AS1 with DM23 is a good representation of a German Leopard 1A4 for 1978-86 scenarios (when the Leopard 1A5 became available).
105mm L7: DM33 APFSDS-T 4000 420 1450 1984

Based on the penetration value of the BM-4 and BM-6, the BM-4 cannot penetrate the Shot Kal from the front, but the BM-6 can penetrate it in the front hull area.

The BM-15 was the most advanced 125mm KE ammo type available to client states until after 1991. (Source: Modern Russian Armor, Fofanov).

T-72M1 with BM15 should be used for Iraqis in 1991 Gulf War scenarios.

Note that Steel Beasts Professional does not simulate the actual arming or "gathering" ranges for all ATGMs but instead inhibits computer controlled units from firing their missiles within certain ranges. This means that it is possible for units to be destroyed by certain ATGMs if the missile is fired before the element in question is below the minimum range indicated above.
