A problem with High AP ability and Small WH size is the penetration will not damage the armoured vehicle. In it's first incarnation the Type Kh MBT's railgun warhead had a WH size of 1, denoting that it had a 4mm calibre. The round easily penetrated the armour of an Abrams M1A2 but did no damage. It was too small for the game engine to recognise that it would do damage. A warhead size of three or four is the minimum to make a round effective enough to destroy a modern armoured vehicle.

I know, that's why I've proposed WH 3... After all 1mm and 3mm are REALLY small so I'd say that with their overpenetration they'd require to hit ome critical are to make damage, not "any hit counts"...
