CALIBER // CONTEXT
Caliber background
Why this cartridge exists and where it is used outside the raid.
9×39 mm was developed for suppressed Soviet special-purpose weapons. A heavy subsonic projectile preserves sound-reduction benefits while SP-6 and later designs add useful penetration at close and medium range.

Damage / penetration map
Each point is a round: further right means more penetration; higher means more flesh damage.
Indices compare rounds only inside this caliber. Combat: 45% penetration, 35% damage, 10% armor damage and 10% velocity. Value divides that result by the reference price. Context badges use explicit thresholds and can overlap; hover or focus a badge to see its rule. Prices are snapshots, not live quotes.
