In an instant.
The Tiger and Sherman fired almost simultaneously.
Gu Ji first felt a reverberation from within the barrel as the shell shot out. The next second, a spark exploded on the right side of the turret, and the Sherman's shell skimmed past the turret armor and flew off.
The shell fired by Eugen struck the side angle of the Sherman.
The initial velocity of the Tiger's armor-piercing shell is at least over 600 m/s, easily penetrating any armor within 90 MM at a hundred meters.
As the smoke cleared, through the observation window, Gu Ji saw that the left lower zone of the Sherman tank had caved into a deep pit, and the track was completely broken.
A shout came from Ler inside the cabin.
"You missed, Eugen! How do I usually teach you?"
"Sorry, sir, it's all my fault for being too excited!"
For a teenager only seventeen or eighteen years old, controlling a Tiger turret to go head-to-head with enemy tanks was a rare opportunity.
Ler spoke with a tone of exasperation.
