Does anyone know how many times i have to MU my M3 thunder to kill an m2 hornet in 2 shots?

 

Oh, and how many times for M2 rail to kill M2 wasp?

I would say about 13 upgrades on damage should do it.

 

All wasp users use railgun protection paints like digital/sahvanna so i wouldn't bother MU'ing your M2 rail.

Nope, my thunder m3's damage is MUed 11/25 and i can 2 shot m2 hornets without protection.

Default HP of M2 Hornet is 138.52. The default maximum damage of Thunder M3 is 70.6 HP. To kill a Hornet M2 in two shots the Thunder must deal at least 69.26 damage per shot, therefore even without any MU's there is a (very small) chance to kill a Hornet M2 in two shots. However, with MU's you can increase the chance of a two-shot kill.

The default average damage of Thunder M3 is (54.1+70.6)/2, which is 62.35. The average damage reaches 69.55 after the 5th step, so in theory after the 5th upgrade step in over half of your firght with a Hornet M2 should kill it in two shots. Although in practice you often deal less that average damage in battle due to the damage decrease over long distances and also the fact that players upgrade their Hornets' armour also decreases your chance for a two-shot kill. The further you upgrade your gun - the higher will be your chance of a two-shot kill, but from a financial point of view I would say that the first 10/25 steps give you more than enough improvement before the price gets absurdly high.
