Hard, soft and other targets - Montana Grizz - 04-26-2010 There is a current thread that has attempted to answer whether aircraft are "soft targets" or perhaps "other". It does not specifically address my question. What is a "Hard" target, what is a "Soft" target and what the hell are "Other" :conf: It has been suggested that any unit with a "Red" defensive factor is a hard target, thereby lumping the Russian BA-64 AC in the same category as the KV-1? If this is true, then what is the difference between "Soft" and "Other"? The German AA HT's (SdKfz 6/2 and 10/4) are unarmored vehicles. Are they "Soft" or "Other"? I've been thinking for years that infantry are "Other", but perhaps I have been setting my Op fire improperly. I would really appreciate a definitive answer. Thank you, Pat RE: Hard, soft and other targets - Smedley - 04-26-2010 Tanks, armored cars, HTs, bren carriers and some armored transports are Hard. All non-armored vehicles are soft. All human targets are other, as are HQs, guns, rockets, howitzers, mortars, AAA, etc. Rob RE: Hard, soft and other targets - Montana Grizz - 04-26-2010 Thank you so much Rob, That's the info I needed.
