OOB 024 -- US Army -- M1A2 Abrams

Just FYI everyone, I noticed that TA missiles using EFP warheads could be modeled using AP penetration instead of HEAT.
Here is a report hinting that armor effects of EFPs are closer from HVAP than HEAT (page 11, "The penetration process for EFPs is characteristic of high velocity low L/D kinetic energy penetrators")
In game, AP missiles just keep their whole penetration all along like HEAT ones, deal with KE armor values and are less sensitive to ERA, just like they should be.

Re. tank top armor, has anyone any hard data regarding design of turret roofs? I mean, prior to the Strv-122 and Merkava-3, was there anything else to it than thick steel plate, even in tanks of the Leo2/M1A2 generation?
Except for the still rare heavy add-on armor discussed above, I don't see what should give such a large HEAT standoff. And don't tell me that's the spall liner
