Well, you don't just have to hit it, you have to hurt it to kill it. which is dependent on what you hit it with, where you hit it, and I believe the distance you hit it at as rounds lose energy the farther they travel.
You can put a lot of .303 rounds spread all over a bomber and not kill it, or one round into the pilot and kill it.
In a tank as a fer instance, if you shoot and do not penetrate it, and shoot again at the same spot the same result will happen, if the round can't penetrate the armor at that spot the first time the second round isn't going to help. You need to shoot it someplace where the round WILL penetrate.
