Honestly I wasn't expecting a plate that thin to deflect rounds from a .223, let alone a .308, even at an angle like that.

@thelightlord6081 Год назад

Think about it tho. The plate has a high hardness and is angled pretty well. Also, those bullets have a pretty high chance of ricochet or shattering as they're spire point/spitzer. The curve from the middle section to the tip is very similar to the angle of the plate, so when the edge of the bullet hits the angled plate, it just kind of slides off. The bullet would probably have to have a lot of power to negate those dynamics. Could put a square shaped ballistic cap on it (like APBC tank rounds) so when it hits the plate it crumples and pulls the bullet into the angle of the plate. Over explanation done

@scotscheideman9800 Год назад

one huge detractor from the sloped body armor is the "spalling, shrapnel, or bullet fragments"( pick the name you prefer). The armor you made is too wide for the wearer to use his arms and still his arms are getting ripped up. Make the armor narrow enough for good arm motion and every round would rip up the arm on the impact side disabling the wearer. Modern approved armor is designed to capture those tiny high velocity razor blades.

@potatoman7594 Месяц назад

if he makes it any smaller the armor won't fit and the rounds would just ricochet into his body.

@xxfalconarasxx5659 Год назад

They did experiment with angled body armour in World War 1. Look up Brewster Body Shield. It worked well to stop rifle bullets, but the armour overall was really cumbersome. Also, if too steeply angled, the bullet could ricochet into one of your buddies, so that's not something you would want.

The benefit of angled armour isn't that it just increases the thickness for penetration but it also redirects the energy of the projectile. Similar to the way lighting will follow the path of least resistance, bullets still require "bite" before they can even begin to penetrate.

And the point of angled armor is that it makes it harder to penetrate, while simultaneously reduce the material needed to reach specific deflection target. If you used to need a 90mm of steel to reach specific target, slope it 45 degrees and you will require only half of it (not exact math). Reduced armor => Reduced weight => Increased mobility

It was just more heavy crap to lug out to the range every day. We stopped using it and buried the targets behind sandbags per the TM. Whatever this metal is is better than steel.

If the issue is not knowing where you're being shot from, what about 2 layers of armor, the 2nd layer being slanted at a fixed 45 degrees of the first?

@danielpercent5434 Год назад

The idea of angled armor is really cool. Hell I even saw a guy in a movie with that angled chest plate you use, but he had it covering his whole face with a narrow slit to see through. It looked weird, like he had a metal cheese head. But this is proof that his helmet would actually work. But feeling the Shockwaves from the bullets would probably be really bad on your body, still beats taking a bullet to the flesh of your face though.

Roll/fold that top edge or you may fragments in your chin or throat. You could try spray on epoxy for Spalding for hard plates

@gantzllat 2 дня назад

one of the reasons this kind of armor was discarded was the tendency to sent the bullet to your side. And planting a bullet on your comrade's ribs is considered as a dick move.

@sgt.shubshub2285 Год назад

As cool of a video this is, wearing triangular body armor wouldn’t be a great idea for a multitude of reasons like mobility and ability to do certain things like lie down on your stomach. But other than that, a bullet being deflected to the left or right could cause fragmentation to hit your arms or hand or other body parts, depending on where they get deflected to

FYI that knife is illegal to carry in Germany. One handed opening is only legal if it doesn't lock into place, locking into place is only legal if it needs two hands to be opened. Not that anyone adheres to that law but I was pretty close to getting into big trouble because of similar knives a few times before.

Probably effective for home defense since most of the robbers carry pistols. Rather than making a slanted armor, you can create a huge triangular shield that you can carry around which can cover your head and body when being shoot at.

the AR wasn't shooting low, the optic and bore have an offset at short distance. for example, if the parallel sight line of your optic is 3" above the bore of your barrel, at 15 yards you can expect your point of aim and point of impact to about 3" offset. there's more to it than that, but that's the gist of it.

@NiceGuy-Nationalist Год назад

I'd actually been thinking about a concept similar to this, though taller and more narrow. I'm interested in tanks and had the same thought on body armour's strike face, toying around with the idea of affixing a piece of steel to the front of a plate carrier. Light and angular, covering around 30-50% of the carrier, with the idea being that you create a shot trap that would deflect most of the energy of a bullet's impact off the center of the carrier. I appreciate the video, it shows that there's promise in the idea, just got to put it together and go through testing.

@thelightlord6081 Год назад

so pretty much angled spaced armour but for personal use. Like the welded on plates on the T26E4 Super Pershing hull

@Jarlemoore1 Год назад

That style of armor became popular in the 16th century when black powder guns and crossbows starting making appearance on the battlefields, breast plates, shields and even helms started being made with sharp angular plates like this in order to deflect these powerful weapons that could penetrate armor.

@lptt6105 7 месяцев назад

Wonder if 2 layers of those slanted plates (with a relatively small gap in between) could stop the barrett. The bullet goes through the first one and has its trajectory altered so the relative slant of the second plate is greater

@belgianfried 6 месяцев назад

I'd say around a 15 mm gap would cause perforation/penetration and shrapnelling, but 35 - 45 mms space would be safe enough not to cause perforation. Provided it's the same thickness plate

@AnalogWolf 8 месяцев назад

That's a really cool experiment, thanks! BTW why were certain segments blurred like welding, loading a magazine etc? Did YT update their stupid TOS again for gun videos?

@robertrobert7924 Год назад

I think it is pretty amazing that .223 and .308 can be deflected by your 45 degree angle steel plate prototype. This is probably why some curiassier armor would deflect sword and lance points, and possibly musket balls. How ever, like the .50 cal anti-material round, Napoleonic Cavalry armor would not deflect cannon balls. What type of hardened steel did you use?

@carloscostacox 11 месяцев назад

hey it only deflected once, odds are it was dumb luck, that was total overkill, assault rifles would probably go through eventually

@brianpaul98 6 месяцев назад

It seems like a pretty decent idea as the military uses it for deflecting bullets away from their vehicles which isn't really a problem if they're ricocheting off around a bunch of other armored vehicles. If you have a group of people and they're all wearing this type of body armor and the bullets are being deflected off to the sides, not so much up or down, what does that mean for the rest of the troops around you? What would be really interesting is if you did a slow motion video showing semi automatic rapid fire at the V armor just to see where all the bullets would be flying and who would be getting taken out.

@battlecruiserna Год назад

if the diameter of the round is thicker than the angled plate and thicker than it's angled depth, it usually goes through. if not, the spalling is usually really, really bad because the light armor will transfer almost all of the heavier round's energy to its surroundings with very little reduction (which is why the slug took your dummy's head off.) Russians used to crack panthers and tigers wide open with 152 high explosive. I don't think such a tactic would work on modern tanks, but that's what missiles are for.

@TheLastArbiter Год назад

An interesting idea for sure, but it would sort of be negated if a person was not shooting at you directly from the front, if they shout at you from like 10 or 2 o clock it’s just a straight shot this way. And most combatants don’t stand facing directly forward, a rifle shooting stance is canted inward so it’s likely that the impact from someone in front of your line of sight would hit the armor straight on. Also hope you don’t value your arms much… or people near you- yeah maybe it’s safer for personal body armor to just absorb and not ricochet 😂 love the video though hilarious

I can see this being designed like a cuirass. Allot more fitting to human anatomy and padded. It would be heavy but it would be situational. With good tailoring and metalworking skills, a functional cuirass could be done in a garage. Of course, it would have to include level 3 arm padding to protect from richochet. This would be very effective for indoors defense.
