you can't penetrate anything ,anything can penetrate you .

No armor means most shells go right true your tank and wont explode killing you, since everyone is using ap rounds. thats why you probs dont kill and they do, your nice n thick armor makes sure the ap round explodes in your tank.

it can happen. It all depends on angle of attack , type of shell, armour type and angle of impacted armour.

If lets say an ap round hits but does minimal damage, swap over to HE/HESH and watch what happens then.

Ap+ VFW tank = 0 damage HE/HESH = big ass explosion :P

That isn't really an issue for me , sure some BS happens from time to time(ghost shells *cough*), but I usually get clean 1 or 2 shot kills, even with APDS, and to help my armour bounce something I usually wiggle the turret and hull randomly so that the enemy screws up the shot and hits in a terrible spot.
I don't own the 120, but from using it in test drives the APFSDS is kinda underwhelming in terms of damage compared to the HEAT and HE (I love HE), but it should have no problems with Leos,especially their hulls

Screw ghost shells, that always happens when they roll up close to me :(

Ghost shells(and missiles) screw me more than they help me. In countless cases of dying to them (gaijin fix pls this didn't happen before the last big update), I can only remember one notable case where it saved me, was in an M56, a BMP launched an ATGM at me, ATGM went right through my hull and I one shotted the guy.
And I find it usually happens with large caliber weapons, I've done some thorough testing and if you pay attention on test drives, if you spam a whole mag of MGs at a target, VERY few go through and impact the ground. With something like an Object 120 or Lorraine 155, it happens a bit more often, like 1/8~ shots or more sometimes

It straight up screws me atleast once per game XD. it never saved me, well there was one time i saw the hole in the tank, but it never connected. but an aa tank behind it somehow did die 5/10 seconds later tho i never saw or shot him.

(friend said the aa was behind the tank i shot btw)
