The attached save has what seems to me odd targeting. There is a tank in hex 35,41. It's at height 30, the two adjacent units firing at it are at height 25. They fired a total of 8 shots all of which were turret hits. Considering they were below the tank you would think they would be mostly hull hits.

Not at all...
Because the tank is on a higher elevation it will be "hull-down" meaning most if not all hits will be to the turret.

Did a bit of research-
from the mobhack manual:
HULL DOWN
Basically, if you are higher than the unit firing at you and not moving or dug-in, then you are considered hull down.
Hull Down Conditions:
Target is considered hull down if :
- the target is not a fortification, and
- firer is not adjacent, and
- target is dug-in OR not moving and Higher than Target
So sorry you are right - adjacent firers don't get hull down adjustment.
