Re: How quickly will grenades take out a tank/apc?

nades can't take out artilery and stuff, only C4 can.

Yesterday there was some enemy guy with a tank in the base, he started fireing on the UAV trailer with the tank, looked at it, after like 1 min and 20 shots later and some C4 on his tank I said to him,

: hello enemy, you can't destroy UAV with a tank !!
- he just keeps on shooting the UAV trailer

: I have put some C4 on your tank and I am right behing you
- he stops fireing, turns his turret to the other side, but the moment before his turet was completely turned I blew him up.

But he was a sport, he replyd : lol , now I know you can't destroy them with a tank,

I've destroyed commander assets with 15-20 tank shells or grenades. I think anything with splash damage will do damage to them.

only chuck grenades at a tank taking the flag IF you see that the tank is really damaged.

does anyone but me think it's stupid that you can take health off of a tank with a hand grenade.

Indeed they do...

If im a sniper or something, is it worth throwing my grenades at a tank capping a flag, will I be able to destroy it any time or will it only take 1 bar or so off?

Waste of time. Though it is good on APCs that it causes enough damage for them to notice (after about 5 nades) to maybe panic and drive around/away.

Haha. I love being in a tank trying to take a flag, only to notice a whole squad on the other side of the fence, all madly chucking grenades at me, XD

How about grenade launchers same? I always lob grenades at APC's and have blown a few but have no clue what kinda damage they already had.

You CAN take out a tank, if you have a Support with you and a really dumbass tank driver... It'll take a mega huge ammount of nades, though!

16 nades for tank.
around 24 nades for commander stuff. includes arty.
i found this out and a "waiting for more players" server

Yep. Tried this with a TOW in Zatar Wetlands. With splash damage from a gasoline trailer, it takes 16-18 TOW hits on a UAV or satellite trailer to take it down. If you got time and your back covered on a large map, it's worth trying, because of the fairly short reload time of a TOW...
