Heavy artillery hit to vechicle, but vechicle not destroyed ?!

[Aeraaa]

That's what I mean. I would expect the rounds to cause penetration, but not destruction (you know, lots of single *s whenever a round penetrated, but not the loss of the vehicle). But IIRC Sabot rounds usually knock out a light armored vehicle with the first hit. The AP rounds DEFINITELY knock out their enemy with the first hit, I remember that, but then they are rounds of a larger caliber than Sabots...
