Struggling with taking down super pershing tanks

[HardScript]

I'm currently playing Germany at 6.7 BR, my lineup consists of
lekPz M41, Panther A, Tiger II (P), Jagdtiger, Ostwind II.
I've looked at different videos on its weakspots and from what I know there are 3 of them,
machinegun port, hatch, the small crack connecting the turret and hull.
Even knowing these weakspots it seems like it is incredibly difficult to use them to my advantage. Most of the T26E5 I encounter have bushes so spotting the machinegun port is impossible, for the other 2 at a distance it's extremely difficult for me to land a precise shot on the first try (If I miss the first shot on either hatch or the connecting part, i'm going to get oneshot). Am I missing something? It seems like my tanks get oneshot by their ammunition meanwhile it is near impossible for me to land a good shot. I've even resorted to just shooting out the cannon, then minigun, then tracks and waiting for teammates to kill them.

the E5 is a tough nut to crack try aiming for either the hull machine gun port or the lower hull plate if you can.

If you can see their cupola, you can try shooting that with APHE.
Otherwise you're kinda screwed. A lot of the super-heavy tanks are hard to kill at their own BR, and some (Maus, 279, E-100) aren't easy to kill even above their BR.

Turret cheeks below the extra armor is a weakspot frontally. I had no problems fighting Super pershings in my Kungstiger Tiger II (P) equivalent.

T26E5 can be Oneshotted in the turret forehead and turret ring area by any gun with 180mm penetration at 500m. What else with 88mm KwK, you can deal with anything with that gun except if it's a MAUS or IS-4M frontally.

When you get to a certain point of time put in to this game the bushes don’t matter. You know where the gun port. However in a case where you can’t shoot it, the gun on the super Pershing is a huge and easy target to hit. Disable it, shoot out its tracks, and then you’ll have more time to aim for the weak points

hit the lower hull plate. also if there bushed up just hit the left side near the top . thats where the machine gun port is so it doesnt even matter if there bushed up since you no what side to hit.

I either shoot at the cupola, the machinegun port or the bottom left and right corner of the lower front plate, the same goes for T34, T29 and T30, unless I've got a lol-pen gun

Thanks, I was able to have great success with shooting the cheeks on the lower plate
