I had the oddest experience in a tank now twice in the space of a couple of hours (first time I've ever experienced anything like ths). The scenario: I'm in a tank and I meet the enemy tank head on. I get a couple shells in to him and he misses his first two shots. Waiting for my third shot to fire the enemy tank launches its third shot and suddenly from full health my tank explodes in a single shell. Second scenario was exactly the same but I was in a T-90 instead of an M1A2. Before both deaths I clearly recall glancing down at my armor bar to check my status and both times both my health and armor were at 100% (so no mixed up bars, either).
I'm no newbie when it comes to tank combat and it was in fact the tank that killed me, I was nowhere near C4/mines, no artillery hit me, no AT/TOW hit me and of course the kill registered as the tank that fired the shell at me. Just a single shell which twice resulted in instant destruction of my tank.
So the question remains.. is a 1 shot kill in a tank vs. tank scenario possible by hitting some tiny ultra-vulnerable location on the tank? Something like inside the gunners turret or barrel for example. Both of these silver bullets appeared to hit at the top area of my tank (turretish) if that helps narrow it down a bit.
