Hi All

can anybody answer me what vehicles grenades damage? For all those occasions when i'm running to a sniper spot and a tank rolls on by, should i be attempting to grenade it?

Grenades can damage light vehicles and aircrafts, but they do diddly-squat on tanks.

Unless your support, don't bother.

no you shouldn't attempt to grenade a tank rolling bye. It will give your position away since your a sniper. If the tank was smoking a lot I always attempt to throw a couple at it while hiding.

the most damage i've ever taken from a nade in a tank is 2 bars,and you have to land it perfectly under the tank.so unless you have an entire squad tossing nades at the tank and the tank can't see you then no,don't waste nades on it.however,if the tank is hurting pretty bad and is preoccupied,tossing a nade at it and running is never a bad idea.

Actually, they do do some damage. The best time to kill a tank with a hand grenade is when it is close being blown up. Some people don't know this but you can also blow up assets with a hand grenade when it is on fire.

uh, we all know this. Its common sense that if something is almost dead grenades can finish it off.

Throw one when someone has launched a couple of RPG's at it, and I'm sure you steal the credit for the kill.

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

No, don't bother unless your support or the thing is already spewing black smoke.

one grenade does one point damage to the tank.

so if you can throw about 16 grenades on the tank in a short period of time and without being killed by the tank, you set it on fire and can destroy the tank. sometimes it is even enough to damage it significantly, when two guys throw their grenades on it. after being damaged to 50%, many of the tank drivers try to escape for repairs or abandon the tank, because they are afraid of a single anti tank rocket, which could easily kill them then.

play singleplayer and drive a tank

believe me, grenade can kill a tank, but you need a squad of suicidal idiots/AIs to do it. A squad of 6 supports of course could kill a tank pretty fast, but...

One bar exactly. You can kill a tank with nades, Especially the GL it works alot better. Has anyone else here ever taken out a tank with nades?

And with tv missles 2-3 shots(Depending on the asset, Arty takes less for some reason)

yub its approximately 2 bars. on a healthy tank and your on your own then chucking a nade at a tank is not recommended. with a bunch of buddies and support then yes.
i know from experience i know that arty rarely and i MEAN RAREly hit tanks/apcs and when they do they dont' do much damage either. So i lulz at inexperienced tankers- they panic in an arty strike and try to run away from the flag that they were trying to cap.
Now for something else: how many shots from the anti air sites does it take to take out a tank/apc?

Grenades DO damage tanks, but don't hope to kill a tank in such a way - only if it has 10% health left, hehe
Do you remember, guys, in BF1942 it was different and grenades were a real menace for the tanks! I'm happy this is not the case in BF2

I have as support. The enemy commander went AFK in a tank, so after a fair amount of time and loads of thrown nades the tank blew up. I then continued to knife him every 15s Sometimes life is good

_{once upon a midnight dreary, while i pron surfed, weak and weary, over many a strange and spurious site of ' hot xxx galore'. While i clicked my fav'rite bookmark, suddenly there came a warning, and my heart was filled with mourning, mourning for my dear amour, " 'Tis not possible!", i muttered, " give me back my free hardcore!"..... quoth the server, 404.}
