Tanks firing machine guns at other tanks

I once did some testing with firing the main gun and machine guns, and just firing the main gun, to see if the machine guns firing helped with getting a better hit percentage as opposed to just using the main gun, but I was never really sure if they helped or not.

I do this often with vehicles that have low ammo load outs so mainly WINSPMBT Russian made tanks like T-55 works fine.
