SMArt 155 or 155 BONUS? The Armed Forces use very interesting high-precision projectiles to destroy the enemy

If you read the initial comment to which I replied ( below) you will see that the talk is (by implication ) of dumb rounds, thus rounds using advanced sensor systems which would obviously not be targeting the containment, are not relevant. just to add however, the shells you cite are using sub-munitions to target tank top-armour (50-70 mm thick ? ) and I don't believe that would be capable of penetrating 700 mm of reinforced concrete. In the hugely unlikely event it did, it would be a pinprick and there would be no tears as Lonewolf speculated.
