Red Orchestra: PTRD Tutorial
For the Panzer *series* (excluding III) (First & Second clip): Fire at or near the second 'circle' that the upper tread runs along. In addition, you may fire below the shovel on the right side for some Panzers (if they have one). These tanks are weak and will usually explode after a perfect hit. For the Panzer that has armored side 'skirts', use the rule for the Panther G and Tiger I.For the Panther G and Tiger I (Third clip Panther & Forth clip Tiger) : Fire at the underside, below the spot where the barrel and turret meet. A minimal of two shots at a close distance with perfect angle are required to take down these tanks due to armor.For the Panzer III (Fifth & Sixth Clip): Fire center of the underside, below the iron cross on either side. In addition, you may fire below the little black circle on the right side. This tank is weak and will usually explode after a perfect hit.For the Stug III (Seventh & Eighth Clip): Fire between the two front 'circles' that the upper tread run along. In addition, you may fire below the iron cross. This tank is weak and will usually explode after a perfect hit.Surprisingly, armored vehicles (Final clip) that transport infantry are the most difficult targets. I believe this is to prevent good usage of the PTRD from constantly gathering upward six-kills per vehicle score. To make up for the lack of a 'sweet spot', the armored car can be hit ANYWHERE to deal at least 'some' damage to it. Note, I have shot all over the side of the armored car for a critical hit and have found none. If you know of one, please tell me!The song used is called Сплина - Линая Жизини
