Well, I haven't looked at the values for the new tank yet. But for the other 120mm APFSDS, muzzle velocity is 1680 m/s and airFriction is -3.96e-005.

So for 600m I would guess a drop of only 0.6m, and for 1500m about 4 meters / 13 feet drop... so you wouldn't have to change the zeroing much.

I don't really see the problem here, 120mm penetrators have muzzle velocities from 1500-1800 m/s and don't lose much velocity, this means they will reach targets extremely fast, they don't have time to drop much.

Indeed I tested the MBT-52 tank and the drop was about 4 meters at 1500 meters, judging from the height of the T-100 I fired against.
