Actually, I wanted to increase the probability of M-kill and F-kill (not K-kill) caused by artillery but well, I guess I'll have to make do.

You could always buy more artillery.

More arty means more weapons, not more effectiveness i think, but if you are the defender, have some ammo canisters, you can create an artillery wall

Same thing for me. If you find the AP effect is not always as good as you want, simply buy more of them (artillery) and order to fire at the same target, sooner or later it will be destroyed.

Yeah, but sooner or later the target may have already moved since we're talking about armor

that's why you don't rely on artillery to destroy the enemy armor.

The only way 105s will destroy enemy armour is by sheer luck.

Either do what Hoplitis said, or next time invest more to infantry and your own tanks.

155 is often enough to inconvenience light amor and strip it off the heavy armor, but 105s are really more an inf-botherers

rockets can bother any type of unit And air strikes are precision strikes, 122 can destroy light armor and blow wooden bridges ;D
