How fast do the tomohawk, ballistic knife, and crossbow arrows travel?

The projectileSpeed\ of the Ballistic Knife is 2180 units. The Crossbow is 4180 units. The Ray Gun is 3200.

Is the Tomahawk speed any different from the Throwing Knife? I'm sure it's just placebo, but it just feels slightly different sometimes.

So the only difference between them is the speed? The drop rate is equal? So the ballistic knife would need to be adjusted 2x more than the Crossbow [about]?

I did some digging and found the tomahawk speed in a nade discussion thread. Yep. Frag Semtex Smoke Gas Flash Stun Decoy All use 900 Speed and 120 RelativeUp in their throw. The Tomahawk though has 1500 speed and 40 (not Relative) Up.

No way the drop rate is standardized.
To me they drop fastest to slowest: tomahawk fastest ballistic knife normal bow slowest
That is of course based on impressions and not numbers/variables. If its true, though, then the drop won't be comparatively relevant because it would just make the tomahawk that much "worst" and the bow that much "better." Unless maybe you're considering a kill from an elevated position or something..

I dont think the crossbow drops at all. if it did, dont worry about compensating cuz it would take like 5 wastelands to actually have to lead your shot above it.

The Crossbow does drop, but it seems like they've reduced the drop quite a bit. It used to be noticeable at fairly modest ranges.

yeah, on array LOL! in black ops you never have to worry about getting into such a long range combat where you have to compensate anything!

Yeah; saw a vid of the crossbow on WMD.. shot from the ground of one end of the map to the sniper tower... with about 2-3 feet of drop.

The Crossbow has 4180 Speed and 90 Up (not relative). It is exceptionally fast but also will rise up a bit with a level shot before dropping.
The Ballistic Knife has a 2180 Speed and 90 Up.
Using /centerview to give me a perfect 90° facing parallel to the ground and one of the many long flat surfaces that make up most of the Black Ops maps, the two projectiles travel an expected 20~ and 40~ meter distance before hitting the ground.
