Simulation of APDS shell from the 120mm gun of Conqueror tank hitting the turret of Object 279 tank near the gun mantlet. This area, despite its thickness, is not the best protected area, because the structure there is weakened by cutouts, including those for the gun trunnion. 120mm L1 (Tungsten Carbide core APDS) at 1410 m/s vs 460mm cast armor (~275 BHN hardness) 120mm Ordnance QF gun (L1) muzzle velocity - 1463 m/s (1410 m/s at 0.5 km)
