This is what happens in War Thunder when you fire APCR or early APDS and get "shell shattered". Tungsten carbide is brittle, penetrators made of it going through an armour plate shatter, so their penetration against the next plate is greatly reduced even if the remains of the shell theoretically have enough kinetic energy.
@@contagioushavoc5794 Depending on the alloy, a harder material will break, a softer one will not break, but will flatten out on the armor like a cake. The tungsten alloy needs the right speed to penetrate by erosion
Not surpised it went through without the skirt and didn't with it. That was what the skirt was for. But still surprised how much energy left even after the skirt broke up the round and caused it to yaw.
@@neurofiedyamato8763 the impact was at an almost perfect angle, in most cases it will end much worse for the shell maybe I will make a simulation for different angles with the skirt armor itself
On the topic of smaller caliber AP, would be cool to see VYa-23 23mm BZ round hitting a Pz IV side armor at around 300m with like 30º downwards angle, as if an IL-2 was strafing at it from close distance, seems to be right at the edge of the penetration capability. Adding plane diving speed (400 km/h or so) to the muzzle velocity I guess as well?

If I am not mistaken, earlier tungsten carbide is brittle, that's why It shatter upon impact. Modern ammo now uses tungsten alloy, which is more ductile and can greatly reduce shattering.
Super cool animation, i#ve always wondered about those skirts, both whether or not they were effective but also of course, how they achieved effectiveness.
Finns removed side-skirts from their StuGs. At first they didn't add any additional armor, until in summer 1944. One of the add-ons was a 15mm plate, which was mounted 30mm apart from the main side armor. Would be interesting to see how well this would work.
Pls do a Oreshnik Penetrator Sim, somethin like a 100-200kg Tungsten Rod with 3km/s. Against? I don't know, because simulating earth + concrete etc. is probably not easy.
Pretty sure HEAT won't pen the skirt+armor (assuming that it can barely pen without skirt) however if HEAT is delayed enough or requires certain pressure to activate and the delay/pressure is set just right it will pen. Mesh gates will do their job against HEAT if they are strong enough to trigger detonator prematurely.
The skirts werent far enough out for them to be effective in the slightest to stop HEAT projectiles, they were only intended to shatter the tungsten carbide AT rifle rounds from the soviets, as for the cope cages those seem to be just placebo
What effect would the skirt have on a 20mm. L.107 TnSH autocannon (the T-60 main gun) HVAP round? The TnSH HVAP round could penetrate up to 40mm. of armour at 300 metres, provided that it was at 0 degrees of inclination. Also, what effect would it have on a 37mm. BR-160 APHE round, a 45mm. BR-251 APHE round and a 45mm. BR-251B APHEBC round? In theory, passing through the skirt armour should cause the base mounted fuse to trigger and prematurely detonate the shells before they reach the actual side armour.
Against this particular threat? No. The penetrator shattering is largely due to non uniform forces acting on the projectile. It is especially bad when some of the projectile experience a sudden absence of force, like when the plate fail and starts to pellet/plug.
Neat how that 5mm skirt breaks up the bullet...but the only thing that irks me, is the 5mm plate looks more like 7mm when compared with the width of the 14.5mm round. 🧐
i read somewhere this is also why the nazi stop the development of panther 2 because one of problem they want to fix is panther weak side plate but apparently slapping a skirt is objectively far more cheaper than creating an entire new tank
No russian bias at all From this video i learned that the soviets didnt need any of the 110.000 t-34 from what 50-60k died. But yes a ptr-41 kills even a tiger Hell it 1 pounches a jagtiger Fucking umbolivable. Germans had the most killto losses ever. In the last 200 years of warfare.

@@dankdaze42069 the propagation time of the shock wave in the material at such speeds is noticeable, the plate attachment will feel after some time that the plate has been hit, the movement of the spring on such a time scale would take "forever"

All tungsten carbide is brittle. Tungsten alloy is not tungsten carbide and that's why it's less brittle.
Tungsten carbide was, is, and will be brittle. It is one of the defining characteristic of carbide in general.

That's what the skirts were for on the panther specifically
Also it makes your tank appear larger and boxier so with a bit of camo everyone reports your Panzer IV as a Tiger and runs away.
