The only thing I can add to this is a story from a Cobra pilot in Vietnam. A PT-76 was attacking friendly troops, but all he had was a Minigun in a chin turret and rocket pods full of HE rounds. He know the HE rounds he had weren't going to penetrate a PT-76's armor, not even from the top, but he thought he'd fire anyway, hoping to distract the PT-76 (and probably out of frustration too).
He emptied his pods, and the PT-76 stopped. No smoke, no fire, no gunfire from the PT-76, but it stopped dead.
Turns out that the HE rounds couldn't penetrate the PT-76, but the concussion from the hammering of the rounds killed the crew.
A WP round or bomb might be able to do something like that, maybe?
