T-34 Killed by HE rounds


Recommended Posts

Yesterday I've played Marxdorf scenario were you have only one King Tiger against dozen of T-34 tanks. My Tiger killed 8 enemy tanks with it's AP rounds. When he has used all of them , he started to shoot HE rounds. I was surprised, my tank scored three T-34. They all had front armour or turret penetration. Distance was 800-850 meters.

Is it possible to have such results in the real life?

Look at the armor penetration for the guns HE ammo. It certainly is possible, but probably not a frequent occurance in real life.

Edit: The 88mm Flak has even better HE penetration than the King Tiger. They can penetrate the T-34 upper hull front at over 1000m with HE.
