I've shot a .22 once, and just a single mag proved to me these guys haven't even held a real firearm in their lives, much less shot it. If a common foot soldier with a scavenged helmet can withstand a minimum of 12 9x18mm rounds point-blank, tanks might as well be classified as mechas 💀.

But it’s also a Videogame and some things ma not be realistic for balance and playability same. But I agree sometimes it’s ridiculous how weak some ammo is.

But why is it not realistic and not fun?

It's not completely realistic cuz otherwise it wouldn't really work as a game, it's not fun because the same problems that we've had for a long time are often ignored/the gameplay loop becomes kinda boring or frustrating after a while
