So when assaulting vehicles with assault terminators you always attack as if you were attacking the rear armor right? So if an assault terminator weapon has a strength of 10 that means it automatically pierces the armor of a leman russ or hammerhead? Assuming it hits.

That's correct. If they move, even the slightest amount, you're rolling to hit on them beforehand, remember that.

When assaulting a vehicle you are indeed striking the rear armour (excluding walkers) and this is in most cases 10.
If you were Strength 10 you would be rolling a minimun of 11 to pen the armour, so yea, auto pens.
However an assault terminator is only S:4 (doubled to 8 for thunder hammers) So would still need a 2 to glance and a 3+ to pen against AV10

Scuba; you are forgetting thor. I mean Arjac Rockfist. He can also throw his thunderhammer as an AP1 weapon that retains the T-Hammer auto shaken in addition to std damage result.
