BTW do ZiS-2s have more penetration than M1 57mm? I think they should (if they don't already) because historically they did, they cost more, and they do less damage.

It may have been my armor upgrade for them, but I saw my ZiS penetrate the front of a panther consistently which I have not seen the M1 57mm do without AP rounds so I was just wondering...

I think the Gunery Verterans help the performance of the ZiS gun.

And I think the gun is more expensive because you can get it much faster than other factions can get AT guns. Just like the Wehr AT gun is more expensive than the US AT gun. Same for the Wehr and US mortars.

The Pak also has to face off against a lot more off-maps and arty than allied weaponry. The Pak deals less damage too.

The ZiS is fine. It's actually extremely powerful when upgraded and dug-in.
If you get into an argument with me, you're wrong.

What bonuses do the ZiS get when dig in? Do you remember the statistical values ???

more accurate is one i think. i just love getting the upgrade and have one cover the flank of another, the panther exploding due to soviet AT is good for the soul.
