Didn't work here. Had to cut and paste.

Edit: Something to do with IE popup blocker. Once I closed it down, the drag and drop worked fine.

Repost.... well a really old repost we'll let you off.

 

[ironcrotch]

I love the reaction, I would be jumping up and down screaming too

EDit: awesome its shoulder fired too!!

 

[psiu]

WOW

 

[jspeicher]

that's impressive.

 

[ChooChooChooseMe]

cool

 

[BudAshes]

After seeing that id be scared as hell if i was a tank driver.

 

[GagHalfrunt]

Obligatory "that'll buff right out"

 

[feelingshorter]

very old, but im not sure how good it is in real pratice since look at the delay in it..try that on a tank even moving ag 30 mph with a machine gun firing at you. But still impressive.

 

[tennisflip]

I wish the BF2 AT gun could do that.

Crazy video.

I know a guy at work who worked on testing the anti tank stuff. Basically they set the charge so that it ejects the rocket in to like a plastic. It turns the metal in to like a plastic and comes out like a javelin and just blasts through the armour. It explodes not on impact but a few metres out so it can ram 'through' the armour. I probably left out lots of other details but that is the gist. Pretty amazing stuff. He said at the time (about 15yrs+ ago) that it would make holes in 2m thick steel blocks!

[wasserkool]

thats very possible..since the javelin hit the tank from the top using gravity assist + thrust from rocket. Plus the armour on top of the tank is fairly weak...

i believe the javelin can smoke a M1A2 as well

 

[kranky]

Whoa... the resale value of that tank is gonna be nil.

you are talking about a shaped charge. it creates a liquid 'jet' of metal (typically copper) that can penetrate almost any type of passive armor. however, given the explosion that took place from the impact in the video, i think that was a high explosive round.

Holy Moly :Q

 

[bootymac]

We need those in BF2
