I made a different experience though where I would hit a tank with powerfull guns several times just geting the "crew injured" or "hull pierced" message where the enemy tank managed to kill my armor with the first shoot while it just had 2 crewmen inside ... if you callt hat realistic ? Neat. But I dont. I call it some exagerated feature. There is a very famous footage on youtube available about a battle between the Panther and Pershing in cologne which shows very nicely what usualy happens when a tank gets hit and penetrated (it even shows how the second or third shoot by the pershing simply shatters on the Panthers armor, but thats not important since the first shoot was a direct hit).
Even if a tank is just hit and nothing "vital" would be damaged (leaving alone the crew ...) it would be extremly difficult well pretty much impossible to operate the vehicle effectively from the smoke and heat generated by the shoot and penetration.
