Hello People,
Could anybody tell me where I can find information about how much explosive was carried by shells fired by British, German and Italian fighter armament in WW2? And what the energy value of that explosive was?
I am trying to compare the hitting power of various fighter armaments for fighters which fought over Malta from June 1940 to October 1942 and the kinetic energy equation only goes partway. I need to include the potential energy of explosive shells for the discussion to hold water. The comparison is intended for an article which discusses the various aspects of the fighter battle in that theatre.
Thanks for any help.
Mario
