Hi All :)
hmm... first thot is given a depleted urainium (sp) shell and a solid
non-angular shot on the first tank... and a thin level of armor piercing on
the first tank it might be possible to have the round go thru the first
tank into the second... but I personally don't think it would really do any
damage to the second tank... Parking the tanks next to each other could,
obviously, change this...
Art Just a thot :)

That story is true. The Iraqi T-55 was hiding being a sand berm and was
taken out by an M1 Abrams firing through the sand.

The M1 met the T-55 in the first Gulf War and whilst the T-55 can expend
all its ammunition on an M1 and not make a dent, the reverse is not
true. The M1 dispatched the T-55 with single shots, at long range and
on the move. There is even a case (probably not true) of an M1 shooting
at a gaggle of T-55s and knocking out two of them with a single round.

And then there is the case of the Amedican tank knocking out the Russian
make hiding being a sand dune.
I don't know the Tank types here or for sure if the story is confirmed,
but it makes a good story.
