# Description

The MG 151/15 was desigend to be as powerful or stronger than the french used 20mm Engine cannons, from which the Germans also got the idea. It is stronger than the swedish Cal. 50. Yet the swedish Cal 50 does create with the Ap-T ammo spalling while beeing 1. Smaller 12,7 < 15mm 2. Lighter or the same wheight 0,05 <= 0,05, 0,07 3. Slower 797 m/sec < 960 m/sec, 1020m/sec with german aquivalent ammo, tested with the Ap-T and Ap-I (c). The Ap-T and Ap-I (C) should also have spalling.

# Steps to reproduce the issue

1. Testflight Bf 109 F-2 load the Ground targets belt cince it has both Ap-T and Ap-I (C)

2. Fire with the engine cannon at the T 34 roof wich both types can penetrate, look at the damage/hit cam.

3. Do the same with the VL Myrsky II and load the Tracer belt which is only the Ap-T

# Additional Information

In the video you can see that the Mg 151/15 doesnt have spalling, while the Cal 50 does. On the pictures are the statcards with the ammo in question.
