DM 63 in game spalling is buggy. Side shotting a soviet tank or any tank for that matter sometimes does not create any spalling… Like just the round goes through it like there is some invisible spall liner.
DM 63 105 Spalling is already bad… This makes it unbearable… DM 33 does not have this issue and spalling is much more reliable

IDK I just shoot t80ud / t72 b / leo2a4 side on center of mass… dm 63 sometimes produces no spalling at all… while at the same shot dm 33 gives consistent kills…
try 17 or 20 pdr apds and come back to 105mm trust me

I find it has better spalling than some 120mm rounds like dm23 and l26 likely due to it being heavier than both if these.
I really like dm63, it’s really reliable for me.
Idk man then I am just really unlucky ig when a side shot damages the autoloader but does no spalling and passes in between 2 charges in the t80ud… Gotta pray to gaijin ig
I don’t think the DM63 is a good ammunition. Based on my game playing Olifantmk2, when I break through certain tanks, unless I destroy their ammunition, the damage caused by the DM63 has a chance to turn the tank crew red. If you hit the enemy’s fuel tank, there is a high probability that nothing will happen: D

This could be due to invisible armour panels within the tank that is not shown on the kill cam. Being relevant because war thunder only shows spall that actually hits something. (even if it does little to no damage)
