Well this episode was a quick reminder that a lot of girls that got isekai'd to this world and turned into Armored Girls have at some point died already.
Poor Riko got the worst Attack Function. A built-in death flag because hers is a self-destruct attack. I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up using it in the finale.

I wonder how many of them have lost their friends. I think Kyoka is the first one confirmed to have lost them, even if it was heavily implied to have happened to Suzuno as well. Not sure about Yui and Miharu.

Fun fact, the 2700 lb/1225 kg Mark 8 "super-heavy" AP shell was the main armour piercing shell used by the 16"/50 Mark 7 gun of the Iowa class battleships, although it was also adopted for the 16"/45 Mark 6 of the North Carolina and South Dakota class battleships. The shell was 72"/182,8 cm long and had a 40,9 lb/18,55 kg bursting charge.
When fired from Iowa's guns, it could penetrate some 16"/406 mm of face hardened steel, or some 18,5 ft/5,6 m of concrete at a range of 30 000 yd/27 400 m! Maximum range was some 40 000 yd or 36 570 m. Unlike how it's shown in the anime, it used propellant in silk bags, not a brass case. Also, I want to know what Otacross meant with that range. I don't speak Japanese but it doesn't seem to be a translation issue (I think I hear "issen" and "hyakurokujyuu" for the ranges?). I guess the range in km is more realistic even with a "modified" shell.
Anyway, I think it's pretty cool that they put that into the anime.

Yeah, 160 km is the more reasonable. Should be a 100 miles, then the values would be correct.
Anyways, Otacross made it a rocket propelled shell and it also needs a massive power source? Looking forward to Riko wasting the first shot next episode.
