I've seen many a 203 take out tanks too, but as already stated normally when they are almost finished.
please read and don´t just post.
one grenade does one point damage. the tank has a full health of 20 points.

I re-installed BF1942 a couple of weeks ago and threw some grenades on a tank, it would blow up after 3 grenades. One grenade did even more damage than I remembered. You can always spot the newcomers in BF2, who previously played BF1942, throwing grenades at a tank and wondering why it doesn't blow up.Nikola Bathory wrote:
... 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
Well if I have the nade launcher and I see a burning tank I will shoot it so that I get the kill
As a tank-whore, I am amused when players chuck grenaades @ me. If they put me in a good mood I will run em over instead of firing my main gun.
Lol, yes. Make sure you take the plastic off your new game too.Berserker2682 wrote:
what difference does it make if I'm support?
I can refill my grenade supply?

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...
Wrong. A direct hit is instant-death for the tank/APC, but luckily those direct hits are pretty rare. So if you occupy an important position with your tank (like when you are capping a flag) stay there, but if your position is worthless abandon it.agent146 wrote:

ive grenade killed a tank before, he got hit by a sraw(and caught fire) and was rolling towards the enemy i threw the nade at, and my nade went off slightly before he was about to blow and i got the kill
ive also MGed a tank from a plane, he had just been bombed and was probably <1 bar of health when i got him

I tested once when it came up before (http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=44736).....
A tank can be done with 18 thrown under easy and can be done with 16 if right on tracks
So if your in a squad and cornered with a tank on your case (with no AT or Spec-Ops) it can be killed with nades, normally only if you know a tank has already been hit (so prob only need 8/9 nades). Only a last resort tactic and as others say don't give away your position by just chucking in most situations.

I have played Taraba quarry once and I consistently got killed in my T-90 by direct arty hits on my full health tank.derstralle wrote:

Oh and if you want to know if grenades damage tanks, go into single player, hop into a tank and watch the nades fly. They will take you out if you let them throw.
Once i saw a smoking tank attacking someone on my team and i was a medic but i blew it up with 4 nades and the guy bailed and died...
It will show your position, so don't waste your time around.
haha i love the noobs that try to g36e my tank on wake and if i keep driving they chase me down the road haha. Gotta love the easy kills
I love it when an enemy solider is in close proximity of my tank, has nowhere to run or hide and just sits there waiting to get blown to bits since he knows hes screwed .. so I just tease him and shoot the main MG around his body then slowly hit him in non lethal body areas till I get bored of his presence/

I tried blowing up the uav with grenades on an empty server once, it only took 64 nades
grenades do 1 bar of damage to a tank usually, you can do 2 if you land it right next to the treads
GL shots do 1.5 or 2.5
if you're in a squad and have a support nade the CRAP out of it and you'll kill it rather quickly
play Singleplayer and you'll find out just how quickly you can die from grenades in a tank.... fucking bots
for me, that's the best feeling i ever get in this game

lol, no, the best thing to do is when they see you and you're looking at them and they freeze in place b/c they know they're dead.... but you don't kill them, just look at them until they start to fun for it and then blow 'em to hell with a shellRaiD wrote:

that's because if one arty shot directly hits your tank you die.also,we on the US server found out that it takes 30 nades and about 15 TOW missiles to destroy assets(the UAV at least).so i guess if you really had the time and ammo you can destroy assets if you want.agent146 wrote:
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.killer21 wrote:

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?
With a lot (A LOT!) of luck the driver jumps out to repair his tank when you throw your grenade
-Boom
-Two points
-Engineer kit on the ground
-A tank
-Boom
-Two points
-Engineer kit on the ground
-A tank
Only 1 shot from jet's laser-guided, but that is hard. I have blown one arty accidentally.David.Podedworny wrote:
And with tv missles 2-3 shots(Depending on the asset, Arty takes less for some reason)killer21 wrote:

Psh how long have some of you played the game that you 1) don't know nades damage tanks, or 2) cant log in and try it yourself??
As some have said, you CAN damage tanks with nades, though it's not substantial damage and not recommended as normal recourse of man vs tank. Hide or run. But I've taken out a few tanks with nades when left with no other alternative.

chucking a gernade at a tank with 4 or so bars will set it on fire and kill it.. so yes.. but dont think you can even tickle a tank with full health with a full bag of gernades
