Disabled tank

This tank on display @ the Canadian War museum is out of commission. On display to show what a tank looks like after a rough encounter, also makes for a good cutaway of a WWII tank.

If we're talking about this tank spose it should be referred to in the 1940s terminology. Could have been artillery piece and i'm pretty sure even the cannons mounted in tanks are still classed as artillery.

There are a couple of armour piercing rounds that make the kind of penetrations seen here:

APCBC: Armour Piercing Capped Ballistic Capped

APDS: Armour Piercing Discarding Sabot

You can type the acronyms into Wikipedia to learn more.

Read "Tank Killers" by Ian Hogg to learn a LOT more.

That is a STuG just like Powerhp said. but as you can tell there are multiple circular holes in the tank. it is kind of an Anti-Tank weapon. not an artillery peice. This particular stug appears to have taken a round to the ammunition rack. hence why the whole internal part of it is blown to serious crap. This is a World War 2 german weapon btw.
