RPATS supposed to damage gun barrels and/or tracks?

[kamel]

Noticed the other day that you could take out the main armament of tanks with RPATS...

I thought HEAT weapons weren't supposed to damage gun barrels and tracks?

Well since 25mm and 40mm AP can damage tracks, I can see how a stream of superheated liquid metal could damage tracks/sprockets.

[rubbish]

Why would you think that?

If it can penetrate a tank, and destroy it, I think less protected gun barrels and tracks are even more susceptible.

It's a little more complicated than that, but in this game i m sure it would work.

I was wondering because I specifically remember it being coded out after mucho screaming about the Brit HEAT rifle Grenade taking out gun barrels and tracks.
