T-54 vs CENTURION Mk.3 | 100mm BR-412B APBC Armour Piercing Simulation

The T-54 and Centurion are 1st generation Main Battle Tanks, both entering service shortly after WWII. The tanks proved to be extremely successful, with derivatives of both still in service today. The simulation presents the result of a100mm BR-412B APBC round impacting the upper plate of a Centurion Mk.3 at 1000m. This round featured a blunt nose, making it especially effective against a sloped plate; while this will not turn it towards the armour, it does help reduce the amount the round is turned away from it. The shell is assumed to impact around/in between the track links which are often mounted on the upper glacis, however it is likely that the round would still penetrate even when striking the spare links. For the simulation, the BR-412B round has been modelled with progressive hardness to post-war good quality standards (upto ~600vpn around the nose). The Centurion Mk.3 plate has been modelled to 260BHN (equivalent of British I.T 80 armour). The explosive filler was omitted for simplicity but may not have detonated due to the chamber being ruptured. Amazing Thumbnail artwork from: Ceslav Sukstul https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/centu...
