      I really don't think it's realistic to have a small arms that can reliably penetrate body armour plates in an infantry rifle size weapon. Maybe if you had a bullpup with a longer barrel and a really high velocity calibre but even then it wouldn't be long before they made some new armour that would stop that as well.

    I think there is something to be said for a kevlar insert beneath the plate. I don't know if that's still the standard configuration, as I finished my time when most of us were wearing the Interceptors and still colloquially referred to them as "flak jackets," with the combination of the helmet and body armor similarly being referred to as your "flak and kevlar." This was around the time when they were first trialing the MTVs and the Scalable Plate Carriers, which most of us simply referred to as "plate carriers" as a way to differentiate them from the Interceptor.
    The kevlar insert seems to be common sense, though. Any round that manages to penetrate the plate can be slowed down enough to be caught by the kevlar. Additionally, it can still offer a level of protection if someone has been hit enough times that the plate is now compromised, although this is admittedly an unlikely situation and means that you probably have much bigger problems to deal with.

    Some may fault you for hitting it with the 993 first, but honestly, given how well the x-sapis and esapis perform with multiple hits, I doubt that would have made a difference. Personally I am curious what powder they are using for this to drive it to 4kfps, you wouldn't have happened to take some macros would you?
    As for the NTS screw-ups, it seems that's not too uncommon, allegedly they improperly marked an rma plate as having failed, and it's been delisted.

H would be, british tests showed 19mm at 100yards from the shorter K98 barrle (if i remember correct) so a slight increase from the longer Mg 34/42 barrle (which it was also fired from) should be expected. But i dont know if any S.m.K. H ammo is still around to this day. I just known of some documents.

    Interesting stuff that's for sure. I would caution you against shooting at metal backstops that have any sort of 'corner' in them. Shooting at the steel wheel end on can result in a nasty 'reflection', similar to a billiard ball bouncing off a corner of a pool table. Other targets to avoid are concrete basement corners, old toilet bowls and railroad rails from the side; don't ask how I know.

    • @ninethirtyone4264
      @ninethirtyone4264 Před 4 měsíci

      A way to get a more effective penetrator is to make it thinner and longer, that way you focus more kinetic energy at a smaller point. That's what the tank darts do. Older APDS tank ammunition looks almost exactly like these SLAP rounds.
      The reason why modern tank rounds are shot out of smooth bore guns is that spin stabilization (from rifling) doesn't work well on thin long projectiles, so they make them fin stabilized instead.

    Can you get your hands on some 5.45 7N24 "super-armor-piercing" cartridge (introduced in 1999, has a stub cone nosed penetrator made of tungsten carbide (hard alloy VK8) ) and/or 7N39 armor-piercing cartridge (introduced in 2013, has a penetrator made of a tungsten carbide (92%) and cobalt (8%) alloy) ???
    Would love to see these performe!

    Ok I’m sure you can find certain ammo using a longer Barrel to penetrate anything,,, for most civilians they are going to be dealing with 14.5-20 inch barrels with store shelf ammunition…

    what you put behind the plate surely has a big role in absorbing the projectile energy and stopping the bullets right? like say if you put the plate up agaisnt something hard and heavy it cant move back a little bit as it would when say a person would wear one. i hope this makes somewhat sense

      It could've effected the result but considering the lab results were nearly the same I don't think so in this case.

    I wonder how a SLAP projectile using a Depleted Uranium penetrator would perform? Seems potentially promising given these results unless the material composition has some issues with clambering and firing the round or something...

    The mechanism of how they interect with armor is different ao it is important to differentiate them. Think steel of various hardness , but the difference is more extreme.

    Shooting a SLAP round from a few meters away is not entirely realistic. Most of the engagements will be done at a few hundred meters, some less where a significant amount of muzzle energy is lost.
