History
Used both as an Anti Tank gun and as a Tank gun the 2pdr was first used by the Belgians in 1939 and the majority of the British guns were captured by the Germans at Dunkirk and given their designation of 4.0 cm Pak 192(e) - English or 4.0 cm Pak 154(b) Belgian.

An explosion within 4 mtr of infantry in the open will cause 99% casualties - lethal.
An explosion within 8 mtr of infantry in the open will cause > 66% casualties and could damage some AFV's.
An explosion within 20 mtr of infantry in the open will cause 33% casualties.
The blast effect of this shell exploding within 1 mtr of an armoured vehicle will not cause any significant armour damage.

37mm 0.74Kg 775M/Sec
Quoted Penetration 39mm @ 100mtr/30° ( ≈ 45mm/0°)
Range(Mtr)1002004008001200160020002400

Penetration(mm@0°) 39
Hit Probability(%) 98 98 98 90 57 22

Hit probability is based on a static 2 x 2.4 metre panel at 0 degrees(vertical) at the range specified.

The data that has been used to create these records has come from Wikipedia, The Lone Sentry, The Bundes Archive and numerous books and websites that have provided the detailed information that has not been available anywhere else. The information we use to calculate the penetration tables, flight times and the hit probability comes from the Gun Calibre, the Shell Mass(Kg) and the muzzle velocity, plus range reductions to allow for gravity and wind resistance. This calculation originally came from a pre-war Krupp calculation which has been modified, and seems to fit the actual test results.
