Armor Penetration works exactly the same as the elements.

Having 100 Damage and 50% Fire damage and 50% Armor Penetration, both, the fire and ArP would deal exactly 50 damage (unmodified).

This Armor Pen damage just has a different modifier for hitting armored enemies.

For example you have 100 Normal damage and 50% ArP and hit a Grineer with heavy armor then the 100 damage from the Weapon will reduced arcording to the modifier (-75% i think) and the ArP will deal extra 50 damage which again is modified but by another modifier (vs Grineer body this is +-0% meaning the full 50 dmg come through).

TL;DR 1% Armor Pen = 1% More dmg ITS NOT LESS ARMOR FOR ENEMIES
