TIGER I vs CHURCHILL | 88mm Armour Penetration Simulation

The Churchill was one of the most heavily armoured tanks of WWII, with its upper front plate being ~1.5 times thicker than the Tiger I’s. The simulation presents the impact of the Tiger I’s 88mm APCBC projectile against this plate, under ideal conditions for the Tiger. Evidently the range is exceptionally low, however a scenario such as this wouldnt be impossible under urban and haedgerow fighting in Normandy. The range was chosen to show just how close the Tiger would have to be to penetrate the Churchill’s armour. The upper plate has been modelled with a hardness of 230BHN, in-line with the hardness of British plates of 150mm thickness: Amazing Thumbnail Artwork from: Wojciech Niewęgłowski
