Leopard 2a4 cheek armor incorrect

The leopard 2A4 should have 520mm of NERA material behind the gunners sight, but when a round hits the gunner sight it proceeds through the tank like there is no armor behind it. The other cheek works fine and im assuming this is due to the game just calculating the penetration based on the the first layer it hits and nothing behind it. Been playing it for the last month and conistently die to it. Pen testing in the garage shows the armor behind the sight but nothing stops a DM23 round(as an example) but other locations on the tank do with the same armor minus the gunner sight.
