My copy of the report on the Normandy air support mentioned one abandoned German half-track left on an obvious point on a hill. Examination of the various traces left by weaponry showed about 20 or more different attack runs had been performed on it, with bombs, guns of different calibres, rockets etc. So it had probably been reported as 20 different "kills" by various flights/squadrons over a week or so's time frame.

I saw the same thing during Gulf I.
I recall one T-62 in particular that had been hit AT LEAST five times by various air delivered weapons (and no doubt reported as 10 kills by the Air Farce) and once by the ground forces as they moved up.
