Simulation comparing the effectiveness of concrete armor and spaced armor vs sub-caliber shell with a tungsten carbide core.
8.8cm Pzgr 40 APCR (36mm, 1.9kg tungsten carbide core, steel body) at 840 m/s
VS
10mm 350BHN RHA + 150mm air + 162mm medium hardness cast armor at 25° (5° side angle, -0.5° fall angle)
Weight of armor covering the upper frontal plate:
160mm Concrete ~1000kg
10mm steel ~ 230kg
