That is not correct. APCR contains no explosive charge and has no fuse. It relies on its kinetic energy, just like a AP bullet from a rifle. If your Target explodes after being shot with APCR, you´ve simply hit the jackpot (ammo or fuel storage)

@Topic
I would never engage Tanks with HE Ammunition, except we are atalking about lightly armored Tanks/Vehicles and our caliber/cannon is powerful enough (Tiger, Panther, IS3...). Use AP and APCR, especially at long ranges.

Based on things I've read, Panzersprenggranate speaks the truth, but also it's probably worthy of note that there is such thing as HEAT (high explosive anti tank) and that it is present in MoW as Bazookas, PIAT, etc. Tactics for these basically recommends shooting at as close to a 90 degree angle as possible. So that's basically what I'd do in your case as well with the 122mm, just shoot whatever part of the KT that will be the least armour and the best angle
