if weapon delivers its kinetic energy to target, it means there is no more kinetic energy left for targets behind it. so no penetration is made.

Wow, is this the reason why it is so difficult ( well-nigh impossible ) to kill bomber gunners ? ie. rounds that strike aircraft parts almost never penetrate ?

Except gunners in player manned craft - is there a different algorithm running to ensure that the player could be hit ?
