The GZW|NET Ballistics Tool v.2.05 is now available to all
This tool gives Gray Zone Warfare players a comprehensive, data driven reference for ammunition performance across every armor class in the game. Every round in the database includes penetration ratings against all helmet and body armor levels at multiple distances, velocity and dispersion stats, source and trader information, and real world NIJ standard context so you understand what the numbers actually mean.
The tool is built around the NIJ 0123.00 standard, the most current ballistic protection specification from the U.S. Department of Justice. Each armor level is mapped to both its new designation (HG1, HG2, RF1, RF2, RF3) and its legacy NIJ II, NIJ IIIA, NIJ III names so veterans of the genre will recognize the ratings immediately from game data.
Key features include a filterable ammunition list with at a glance penetration bars, a full detail page for each round showing performance charts and armor penetration grids at 50, 100, and 300 yard distances, a side by side comparison tool for up to four rounds, and a Learn section covering the NIJ framework, how to read the charts, and how GZW adapts real-world standards for game balance.
This was a complete overhaul of our old system while keeping it familiar. A lot of time and effort when into this one. Come check it out!
We're also Recruiting for our BALLISTICS TEAM to help us gather data to get this tool fully updated to 0.4
If you'd like to help, reach out! We'd love to hear from you!
