1.1.27 tank excessive self damage using explosive shells?

Since playing 1.1.27 today I noticed that the tank does an extraordinary amount of self-damage when using explosive cannon shells. Could be just that I researched the new level of shell damage but it really feels out of the ordinary hence the report (spend some 1k+ hours on Factorio now so should have some sense of what should be normal).

Playing with Space Exploration mod.

That's probably it. The damage researches are very steep sometimes. You can look how much percent damage you added in the tech tree or in bonus overview

I know, but I have done many many playthroughs (also using the tank), but this is the first time I experienced that self-damage makes the tank hard to use.
