THE POWER OF THE 120mm | Chieftain vs T-10M | 120mm L15A5 APDS Armour Penetration Simulation

The simulation presents the same T-10M turret impact as the “Centurion vs T-10M“ video, however the shooter is now the Chieftain, and the range has been extended from 500m to 1830m... Centurion vs T-10M found here: On paper, the Chieftain was arguably the best tank in NATO when it entered service, featuring modern systems, a hunter-killer capability, and a powerful cannon (the sub-calibre projectile’s kinetic energy actually exceeded that of the T-64’s 125mm 3BM9 APFSDS). However, the tank suffered from reliability issues and a troublesome engine, as well as being produced in significantly less numbers than any Soviet tank. The simulation shows the same impact point as the Centurion video, with the exact same materials used for all components (as L15 is just a larger version of L52). The simulation therefore serves as a direct comparison between the British 105mm and 120mm cannons. Amazing thumbnail artwork from: Warthunder
