Yeah, it's a shape charge projectile. This means it's destructive power comes from a directed explosion on the target the moment it hits. Thus, it does not have to go that fast to do it's damage. Kinetic energy rounds on the other hand (SABOT main gun tank rounds for example) do rely on the sheer power of their punch to deliver their destructive power.
Here's a video showing the differences in the two types of projectiles.
