  • Just for those that don't know about blunt force trauma, that is called a flail chest. 2 or more adjacent ribs with at least 2 breaks creates a free floating portion of the chest wall causing difficulty in efficiently expanding the lungs leading to breathing difficulty. It is considered a very serious injury and can quickly lead to death if not stabilized quickly. That many ribs being broken in that manner would be an extremely severe flail chest and would cause immediately and extreme issues for the person experiencing it.

We had a small company that made great lighter weight level 4 plates and had an example that had been hit with .223 .5.56 Green Tip, 7.62x39, 30-06AP, and .308 all in one plate and the deformation on the back was impressive, the single plate stopped everything but the higher calibers would definitely rearrange your organs lol. Even if the Premiere armor had stopped the very first large caliber....your insides would be very uncomfortable lol.

  • In this episode Scott finds out the difference between the words "can" and "will". Those plates "can" stop those rounds. Weather they "will" or not is a different matter. The moral here is don't trust a level 4 plate with big boy rounds.

    • Honestly, it's not really designed with elephant rounds in mind... It's meant to stop rifle calibers likely to be encountered in combat situations, and elephant guns and their ammo are far too heavy and unwieldy to be worth using as primary weapons, not to mention they're overkill. Plus, armor that can reliably stop such a round would itself likely be immensely cumbersome, and soldiers need to be mobile. These plates will reliably stop up to AP 30-06 (according to the manufacturer), which is already way more powerful than most militaries outfit their soldiers with.

      @lemax6865@lemax6865 Жыл бұрын
    • The first elephant gun round with the brass solid was a poor choice. If it were lead, it'd have had a chance to dump some energy. solids aren't going to deform much. They'll zip right through anything. They're fast, light and strong. Exactly what will defeat armor every time. I can't imagine how he didn't expect the first elephant gun not to penetrate the armor. He used the most overpenetrating round possible.

    • @@lemax6865 Nothing against the armour. In fairness its doing better than it should if its stopping anything from these things - let alone brass. My point was more that just because it stopped a round from one of these doesn't mean it always will since its not rated for them. I'm sure Premier can make something that will stop these every time but this isn't that.

      @siraff4461@siraff4461 Жыл бұрын
    • The thing is, for the way armor rating is determined (as in, what level of armor) the actual requirement is much lower than most people assume when hearing what it can "stop" effectively. For example, when he says that the Level 4 plate will stop an armor piercing 7.62 round, the actual specs say it will stop exactly ONE armor piercing 7.62 round. If you put a 2nd round in the same place it's going through. For some comparison, a L3 plate is rated to stop 6 standard 7.62 NATO rounds before being compromised. The more commonly found L3-A armor has some variance (mostly based on it's quality and design), but is rated to stop several 9mm or .44 magnum rounds. The point of distinction is between 3-A and 3, with 3-A and lower usually being "soft" armor, while L3 & L4 are designed using hard plates. Hard plates tend to degrade faster for a variety of reasons, but are usually capable of stopping a more powerful round (well, one round anyway...). That being said, I do still find it a bit sus that a 5.56 from an AR was able to deform the inside of a L4 plate like that. A 7.62 round is leaving the barrel at 3+ times the velocity and carries at least 2x as much energy from the start, so I'm not so sure I'd be willing to trust that particular plate to actually stop an AP 7.62 from penetrating....

  • Nothing against Scott in particular. But I've noticed a trend amongst guntubers. "I want penetration test" proceeds to use hollow points and soft points.

The last shot from the side really did show how much energy the 500 Nitro is dumping. Cool video once again! Keep on keeping on and let's see what you come up with next time.

I'm willing to bet a fair bit of energy was actually being lost by them pushing back off the torso.

But I've always wondered how injured. This was amazing to watch. Keep it up scott. I love these ideas you get for videos. Would love to see more of this maybe with some more common rounds.

    • The purpose of a bullet is to put a large amount of kinetic energy into a small cross-section. The point of armor is to enlarge the cross section of impact. 5000N applied to a cross section the size of a pencil lead is deadly. 5000N applied to a many kg mass spreads the cross section of that energy transfer in both time and space.

  • One thing I think might slew the results maybe is that because the armor was harder than the target, the bullet stopped in the armor. This meant that all of the kinetic energy was transferred into the plate...and then into the target. However with penetration, the round will enter and most likely exit the target with considerable velocity still left in it. This means that less kinetic energy will have been transferred into the target (from what I can gather with basic physics). I kinda wonder whether you have slightly better chances if it hits you in the arm and goes through, as opposed to hitting say, a shoulder pad and completely crushing your ribs.

  • I wonder how AR500 steel plate would fare, I think it would handle the energy better than the ceramics. Ceramics are great for stopping high velocity small bullets, but it's too brittle for such large high-inertia projectiles such as those from an elephant gun. Steel would stop the projectiles much better, and transfer much more of the energy behind it too.

    @TheExplosiveGuy@TheExplosiveGuy Жыл бұрын
    • It would probably take some of the energy and disperse it but it would ring you like a bell. Even then I think it would break ribs. Online you can see videos of officers being knocked over by shotguns while wearing hard armor so I would imagine an elephant gun would do the same and then some.

The ballistic dummy would have been thoroughly concussed if it was a steel plate😂, the entire plate would probably imprint itself into the dummy with the bigger rounds like .600NE or .700NE lol. My point is the steel plate would stand up to an elephant gun better than the ceramics, but maybe not so much the person wearing the plates, who is more or less fucked with steel _or_ ceramic armor, either way you're getting hit by a dump truck🤣.
