Actually looks like two hits.
The obvious AP hole and a HEAT strike on the left and slightly higher.

well, it's still on debate. recent opinion on the subject says the hole is AP and the other hit is HE hit. |

Hi! Hereīs another impact. I took it when I visited the Swedish armour museum in Axvalla... Anybody knows what kind of round that made it? I havenīt got a clue btw... It would be nice to know since It looks pretty weird I think... The actual tank is a Swedish 103 if anybody wonders   |

That is probably a High Explosive round. Theres lots of fragmentation damage around the impact site, and it didnt penetrate. Just my guess. |
