Sighting range

On the subject of muzzle velocity, realistically the German tanks and TDs used the same guns - I realize in this game that they are treated differently by being more accurate as well as having a higher rof.
But my question is: do they seriously also have less penetration loss over distance? (given the fact that the devs have given them the same amount of maximum penetration).
