Yes I would agree that one would have to hit the place where a hit occurred and the practically the same angle to do real additional damage.

Now what one has to remember is that many of the AFVs have been used for repeated target practice over and over again in 1996, 1997 and 1998 with what ever other engagements they had been in since then with additional damage for additional hits.

I am sure as tank go through more and more engagement the odds increase they will have areas of their armor that aren't as strong as it used to be. It is why some units have turned some of their armor into immobile pillboxes with sandbags, building material, and good old mother earth add more protection leaving only the turret expose for the purpose of being able to engage attackers of their defense.
