The Last Frontier

A 47mm shell misses a German tank, taking out 3 Germans in the process. The 47mm anti-tank guns used by the Soviet Union did not have explosive armor-piercing shells; they used armor-piercing shot which would not have been able to kill men unless with a direct hit. NOTE: This is false. In 1941 Soviet 45mm (not 47mm) anti-tank shells did have a small explosive component. It was not solid shot.
