M60A1 vs Object 279 | M728 APDS | Armor Penetration Simulation

Simulation of a M60A1 projectile hitting the frontal armor of Object 279

105mm M728 APDS (4.6 kg, tungsten alloy core) at 1365 m/s

vs

Object 279 hull front armor (310 mm CHA LoS)

105mm M68 muzzle velocity (M728) - 1426 m/s. 1365 m/s refers to a distance of approximately 0.8 km

Idk about yall but that went a lot deeper than I would’ve expected

[VyarkX]

The first shot looks like a really small shell hitting a massive shell (its even got a ballistic cap)

[kampfpanzer]

Not sure what you expected that to do against 310mm

[signs]

Lol i was expecting a shot a little higher or lower, it would take a pretty giant APDS to get through that spot. Maybe Chieftain? Or even conqueror depending on how bad that outer layer fractures the core

[BertieJasokie]

From the side profile, it looks like Tank shell vs Naval shell.

I expected that to spall at bit or bulge the plate, the armour seems unfazed. Thanks for doing the simulation ❤

[madcat]

I don't know why i thought it would bounce.

Shooting a tungsten rod at that distance is like shooting concrete.

[berabahcekapl]

At the beginning I thought it was a giant ammo

[commanderdon]

Oh whats this it hits the most angled armour on the tank and doesn't shatter....
I guess a popular video game's simulation of this shell is complete fucking fiction, who'd have thought ay?

[Paul_Sergeyev]

Can you simulate a 20 and 30 mm CIWS round hitting different warheads? I wonder if a direct hit on a 1000 lb bomb would really cause an Explosion

[spartanfighter-mi]

what app is this i would like to use it but if its a website please drop link

[Malakin]

I wonder if a chieften would make it with the same shot

[Ben-shdl]

Hi, looking forward to seeing what you got for April 1st xD

[randymagnum]

Now let's see how it holds up against a Davy Crockett!

Hello
I have a question, can you simulate a jeep driving trough a wire fence ?
I ask becuse iam lucking the movie Kandahar yesterday and the end was boring, because they driving to the gate and not direkt trough the fence ...

[amirsayfiddinov]

huh, thought the ammunition gonna be the apfsds

[BasTSLA]

Tank was made to stop high pen apds, right not apdfs

[Thats_Coffee]

THE TARGET HASN'T TAKEN ANY DAMAGE

[alimorgan]

Can you do M103 M358 Solid Shot vs Abram’s turret side?
