Forum:Questions about abbreviations: AP, FlakWH, etc.

Hi there, recently I'm reading a lot here about ra2/yuri, but I have found some content not very legible. Here I want to point out a couple of:


 * What is WH, as mentioned in the infobox-combat of Patriot missile system and Flak cannon/Flak track? Is it German? I just can't find it at "Glossary of military abbreviations" (WP). --- Oh, actually, is it just Weapon Head?


 * What is UltraAP, as mentioned in Tank destroyer? It's not the same as this right? I feel it sounds like Anti-Personnel, which makes no sense, for obvious reason. --- Could this be a mistake?

I hope you can see my post here .. gees Wiki is quite different from Wikipedia XD -- SzMithrandir (talk) 22:31, February 27, 2016 (UTC)

Those aren't real world weapons, they're internal names used to refer to the weapons by the developers. You're not even supposed to see them normally. No idea about WH, but UltraAP just stands for Ultra Armor Piercing, since the Tank destroyer is designed to do just that. Ssskoopa (talk) 05:24, February 28, 2016 (UTC)


 * Oh, armor-piercing... gees christ that explains! Ssskoopa, Thanks a lot for that! And WH, well, after I posted this I figured out that it should be war-head, which is obvious a common term. -- SzMithrandir (talk) 08:34, March 20, 2016 (UTC)
