With the advent of the Tanks DLC release, I sure hope that the way any ricochet, penetration or absorption of shots against armour can be changed. It is frustrating to see that there is an accurate penetration system, with very good ballistics and all, that is abused in this way. The system allows for a complex damage model, where vital components can be protected by armor. However, the way it works now, is even if the protection works, the vitals still soak up damage, eventually leading to vehicle destruction.

I would like to suggest improving this for the upcoming tanks DLC.
