The first is the AT rating of 16. I would rate it at 14, the same as the German 75L70 gun. All of the Soviet guns have an AT rating in the rules less than the allies. The 85mm in the SU85 and T34/85 have an AT of 12, the same as a US 76.2mm or 10 inch gun (M4 (76) and M10 GMC). The 76.2mm ZIS-3 and T34/76 F-34 gun have an AT rating of 9 compared to the US 75L41 rating of 10. The same with the 100mm gun. It was not as good as the German 88L71 in penetration, although its 2+ FP rating makes a difference. As far as range the T54/55 tank in the FOW 67 War rules, produced 10 years later (with the same gun) has a range of 32" not 40". Soviet optics were not that good in 1954. Why would they be better in 1944? Our local rule is the Range is 32", the AT factor 14, and the points cost and other stats unchanged. Can't kill a Tiger II or Jagdtiger/Elephant frontally, but everything else in the German arsenal still has to watch out.
