So the rules for the HVAC say to inflict internal explosion damage equal to that of a single round, and destroy all of the HVAC's criticals. They also say to treat it as an ammo explosion.
So does that mean that on vehicles, all of the ammo cooks off, since that's what happens in ammo explosions for vehicles?
So on the Po, you roll a 2, inflict 10 points of damage to your structure (destroying the turret) and then have the remaining HVAC and Streak ammo explode, doing yet more damage to the turret?
Not only does the HVAC kill the tank just from firing the weapon, but it doesn't leave a crew or much to salvage.
I can see the Po (HVAC) being a limited production run during the Jihad if they were running low on regular Autocannons and had to make do, but it really stretches the imagination that these things went into regular production.
