@wobbly nostrils clearly you havent shot a gun. When setting up a scope it would take about 3-4 shots before correctly aligning/adjusting the crosshairs to where the shots are actually gonna land. And for them they didnt have the bullets nor the time to do that
Update : if u didn't catch it go back to 6:31 u will see a part of the tracer compound raining down on us right about when we get up . Some people caught it . I thought it was pretty cool . Hi everyone , thanks for checking out the video , I went back and shot the plate a 90 degrees with 50bmg . I will release video soon . Surprising results .
@@Zamani736no. You can't carbonize Ti like that. It's down to the structure of titanium bonds. Most commonly Ti is alloyed with aluminum and vanadium (TiAl6V). Don't answer questions if you don't know the answers.
@@hoppeanofasgard1365This. The A10 used titanium to armor the cockpit specifically against this type of weapon. I'm not sure how thick or what type, but the point is 30mil would probably not penetrate all the way through.
Thanks so much for your bravery and contributions to humanity. You do the stuff the little kid in all of us want to do but can’t, or won’t because, let’s face it, we are too scared. I enjoy watching and laughing till my sides hurt. Please keep them coming, I’m doing a public service of sharing all this crazy fun stuff you guys do with all of my crazy friends. Hey God bless and try to stay safe.
To truly test it, the titanium needs to "not move" so it can absorb the entire force of the impact. Letting it fly back 30 yards from initial contact gives inaccurate results.
I worked as a aerospace machinist for many years and I can tell Titanium is one of the most difficult materials to machine. Not the most difficult however. But you have to watch it close, if you see just one spark the cutting insert is done and the machine is about crash.
That’s surely an expensive camera that he’s using and to get slomo guys level that’s much more expensive. The quality will always be lower as the speed of camera increases. They didn’t record this with some iPhone camera I’m sure.
You think you can make it stand still ,,, may be but impossible to me I think to me don't know ,,, but doesn't looks like ,, keeping it still would work bcuz it's titanium seriously not joking
Violet Canzonetti allow me to rephrase! It dissipates the energy buy allowing the target to move in the direction the projectile is traveling, thus minimizing the penetration! Or not.
Richard's World Traveler Edwin is the Man. I handled some heavy weaponry in the service, but never got to take them on a field trip... Just blowing holes in stuff 😀
Re: No bulging on the back of the target. Titanium tends to burn. You can see a lot of sparks when the 20mm round hits. So it may be that the energy of the hit goes into the burning of the Titanium on the front of the target instead of deforming the metal as you would expect on a steel target.
That was a whole lot of kinetic energy transfer! I'd like to hear what it would have sounded like if target were made into a bell shape and hung on a rope.
