2 inch Titanium vs 50 Cals Baddest Rounds

Headphone warning, for loud impact sounds
Sackin Metals hooked us up with two 1" Titanium plates that we bolted together. We shot 50 cals baddest rounds at it. We shot the SLAP, SLAP-T, Raufoss MK211, MK263 AP, and Israel's API.
We also shot all of these rounds out of a M2HB 50 Cal to get the max speed out of these rounds.

An RN-50 had its threaded breech cap come off after firing an unknown number of SLAP rounds, seriously injuring the shooter. Because metal expands when heated, the threads would have to be machined loose enough to allow the breech cap to be removed by hand after firing for the loading procedure, indicating a flawed design

[@iichthus5760]

Two plates provide more stopping power because of iterative energy dissipation. Simply put, the energy it takes to penetrate the first layer is spread over an area much wider than the projectile and the point of impact on the second layer is much wider than the point of impact on the first layer. In a single layer of armor a punching shear profile develops with a smaller and more consistent area through the mass... ya, materials engineer. Sorry to nerd out on ya.

[@GoingBallistic]

Thanks for the comment 👍👍

[@TheExplosiveGuy]

Pretty much the principle behind Whipple plating on spacecraft, the first layer absorbs the initial impact and spreads it out before it hits the second layer of plating which catches the much smaller and lighter peices.

[@bira896]

Makes me wonder, if the second plate was "floating", i.e. loosened bolts to allow it to travel in the plane of the projectile, would it provide even better protection?

[@blacksheep5466]

pretty sure the opposite is true. I have seen test done with steel and they found that 2 inches is better than 2 one inch plates but they did not say why. they found if there was a space between the 1 inch plates then the round would tumble after the first and hit the second sideways most times but together they were not as good as the 2 inch. again not sure why ....

[@bezimienny_andzej6425]

I think quite the contrary. Penetrator has to move the material in front of it to the sides and front, when there is even a tiny bit of gap between plates, material can moved much easier - first the bulge on the back of the plate appears, then the penetrator goes through, moves the metal freely to the sides, then proceeds to do the same with the 2nd plate. With 1 homogenous plate the metal is pushed into the metal, that has nowhere to go. Imagine your penetrator is 0,75 inch into the 2 inch plate. To create a bulge with the metal it pushes in front of it, it has to move 1,25" of titanium! That takes a lot more energy, so pretty much at this point, it pushes metal into metal. And only after it penetrates the whole plate, it can move some metal freely to the sides and front.

[@GUNTHER1]

[@GoingBallistic]

Thank you. I hope next week is much better for you my friend.

[@Killerean]

The kind of setup you've created there is actually quite interesting. You can find similar protection on spacecrafts where there is two layer protection. The first layer is designed to shatter/destabilize the projectile and the other one catches it. Those are solid layers with a specific gap between them though. Your setup has one more variable in the stretching bolts, giving just enough flexibility to slow down and stop/return the round. I think it would have been interesting to see the first two rounds re-tested with the c clamp setup. I believe this time they would have made it through just like the last two rounds, since the plates would now stay in place.

[@BinaryBlueBull]

Two years later but indeed, on spacecraft it's called a "Whipple shield" or "Whipple armor" if you will. It was invented by Dr. Fred Whipple, an American astronomer. Just some added fun facts

[@hardlylivin6602]

I wouldn’t say the M2 isn’t capable of a high level of accuracy. Carlos Hathcock took out a Vietcong soldier at 2,500 yards with one in 1967 with two rounds.

[@redneck3962]

I was just checking the comments to see if anyone else was going to point this out too!

[@grandadmiralthrawn8116]

Was it with a SLAP? They are generally less accurate than the more conventional types of 50bmg (my guess it’s because the lack of a boat tail)

[@glandhound]

Yeah, out of a group of VC and he didn't hit the one he was aiming for. It's not exactly sub MOA, but for an MG that is a good thing. MGs aren't designed to be accurate as they are supposed to be suppressive/area denial which is easier without pinpoint accuracy.

[@glandhound]

@@grandadmiralthrawn8116 They are less accurate due to the sabot. The sub caliber projectile (or penetrator) isn't connected to the barrel rifling so they don't spin while in flight which makes them inherently inaccurate.

[@dwwolf4636]

@berkayxj8 TiAlV has a RHA equivalence of about 70%. ERA (and NERA and NxRA ) work by constantly shoving the flyer plates into the HEAT jet as they are bulging due to the explosion.

[@humphrey09applebee61]

Calling bullshit on that round, it is not in the slightest deformed and if you know how energy transfer and bouncing work you do know, that if the round penetrated this far in, it sure as hell does not dig itself out and bounces back. All of this, mind you while being in perfect factory condition. If it did, you should be able to easily recreate the bounce and retrieve another one like that.

[@whosurdaddy8907]

When shooting the m2, try not sitting on your foot, and put both feet on the cross bar holding the T&E, so you don't have to bend over to get low enough to look through the sights. Also sandbags on the tripod helps alot.

[@ryanbrown172]

As an engineering student, I would say that maybe shooting through a solid piece would have to overcome shear movement in the center plane of the plate as the plate flexes while the bullet would overcome only the much more negligible surface contact between two plates. Also the plates are more likely to deflect a larger amount if there is two because of this lack of shear resistance and more deflection means more stress. These are just thoughts.

[@killian9314]

2:29 for the ISS nasa made tests shooting titanium balls out of a compressed gas canon that reached mach 10 (to simulate space debris, pretty cool) and they use space grade aluminum for armor, they tried 2 things, 1 several inches thick block, and 2 really spaced out fraction of an inch layers, which like a feet separation, they found out the big block got a buge ass hole, because all of the energy was distributed in it, both huge entrance and exit hole, but for the other one, they saw a big defomation on the external layer a big ball, but a small one almost caliber sized hole on the second one, and realized it was better for protection purposes to use size and separation to spend the energy of the proyectile, rather than bigger plates, so they used the second type, and filled the separation with kevlar and some sort of self sealing fluid, so that in the worst case scenario, you have a small hole that went through the station, but it did so like butter and you've got a dutch boy with the dam situation, and not a tank round sized hole in the hull, and in practice, the extra density of the fluid spends the energy more than the solid so it stops it like regular kevlar would do with a small calibre round. hvit.jsc.nasa.gov/shield-development/ here's the link.

[@earlharrell7750]

After 53 years as an Aerospace Tool and Die Maker IMHO, the two one inch plates would be much stronger than a single two inch plate. The reason being each of the one inch plates has a super hard "Skin" of condensed Titanium on each side of EACH plate, meaning the round must puncture this skin 4 times instead of puncturing this skin twice on the 2" plate. After machining tons of Titanium during my career, once you cut through the "Skin" this inner virgin material machines more like Aluminum than Nickel Based Alloys like Inconel.

Furthermore some one in the chat room "ruskitytan" has already pointed out, when there is a gap between plates it allows material to bulge with out infringement, allowing the round to push material out of the way to move to the next plate to do the same. Where as when you have one solid plate the "bulge" has no where to expand and pushes into more material at the back making the metal denser and denser as the round tries to move further into the plate. ( simple experiment, get a few of your friends, say 4 of them. Line them up one standing behind the other person say one foot apart. Now walk up and push the very first person. I guarantee you he will fall back bumping into his friend who will fall back bumping into the guy behind him and so on till they are all on the floor. Now repeat the experiment but this time have each person place his hands firmly on the shoulders of the friend in front of him, with 3 guys that are behind the first friend having their hands extended and placed on the shoulders of the person in front of them. Now push your first friend and see what happens. They won't fall. People here also confusing glass armor that has layers thinking its done cause it makes the window stronger. But glass behaves different than metal and not applicable to this scenario. Glass is layered cause you have hard brittle material, then soft elastic plastic between layers to prevent glass from fracturing and the break traveling the whole length of the glass window.

[@DD08DK]

Hello gentlemen. Fantastic video once again. Thanks! Whether you should use one or 2 plates really depends on a multitude of factors. The only thing the AP rounds may have benefitted from, was the stripping/elongation/deformation of the nuts and bolts, effectively leaving the plates more distance to stop the penetrator. Heck... the large deformation, and hardly any deformation of the projectile, is likely the reason for the "throw-back", as the elastic deformation returns to whatever plastic deformation that has been done. I wish you had an ultra high speed camera for a comparative test! I reckon the primary reason for having stacked armor, is for the first plate to deform/break/deflect the projectile, and let the following plates stop it/the fragments. Given that the projectiles look more or less intact, i would rather have a solid plate, than 2 or more thinner plates of titanium. There is also a fairly large gap between the plates for the last SLAP round. Anyways... Tungsten penetrators at high velocity is not easy to "catch"... if you wish to be alive afterwards. Cheers...

How about taking some 4"x4"x8' wooden beams and shooting the various 50 CAL rounds into it lengthwise to see how far up that 8-foot beam they'll travel. You'd have to strap them down of course, and be precise with your angles (to best keep the bullet from exiting out one of the sides after a foot or so). But that would show the penetration differences in these various rounds. Especially those slap rounds that seem to blow through everything.

@@GoingBallistic - They are about $15 each (for 8', $10 for 6'). I suggest buying 9 of them. Stack them 3 wide by 3 high. Strap them together on both ends and shoot for the center beam. That way if the bullet's trajectory through the wood isn't straight. it'll still be in the stack.

One thicker plate is stronger than 2 plates put together. Don't know the engineer you talk to but they are incorrect. That was figured out in the 1800s while trying to figure out what was best for battleships.

Thanks for the info.

[@olliedee]

[@GoingBallistic]

[@quakerridge2212]

Nice job guys

[@michaelegert1284]

This power is something else. Just sick😮

[@TheMrPeteChannel]

Great video! Once again requesting to shoot the older titanium pieces at a 45 degree angle!

[@kenshinhimura7812]

I was waiting for this video thank you for amazing content

[@GoingBallistic]

Your welcome 👍

[@Conan-ny1um]

A tip for next time use grade 8’bolts they will not stretch! As always awesome video guys!

[@GoingBallistic]

Yep

[@stephanmackie5281]

Great video!

[@bmstylee]

That slap round is no joke. Is there anything it won't kill. And oooh a vertical mill. I miss high school metal shop and playing with toys like that.

[@GoingBallistic]

👍🇺🇸

[@thorwaldjohanson2526]

Awesome video. A bit of constructive criticism / feedback: Please include more details in the video / description, such as bullet stats (load, weight, type of core (thungsten, steel), the muzzle velocity (one was out of frame). That would be awesome :)

[@waterbeing3197]

Thats funny. We call them G-clamps and not C-clamps. Love the show👍🏼

[@Stacey191]

Wow, those slap rounds are scary cool👍😎

[@GoingBallistic]

Lol, I agree

[@michaelcolorado6107]

Howdy bud! WHO_TEE_WHO sent me over. I can already tell I’m gonna love your content. Thank you for taking the time to put out great vids! Looking forward to watching more of your vids! 👍👊

[@GoingBallistic]

Hey, thanks so much for watching. 🙏👍

[@thomasorourke7571]

Great video. Two 1 " steel (RHA) plates are harder to Pentwater than one two inch, two hard surfaces with the rha. Suggest you set up a plate with a hole for the gunner to shoot through, 1 in STEEL ISH, heavy lexan might Work. We used to use a light aluminum plate for Small. Never used clamps or bolts, number your plates and let them stand freee.

[@peterschmidt1453]

Puts into perspective just how vulnerable troops are, even APC and tanks will have soft spots that these rounds could cause problems.

[@dlamb2840]

I think the bolts loosening will absorb a lot of the power. Great upload.

[@brikeswardebbarma4029]

Insane amount of penetration with 50BMG SLAP round on the titanium plate wow 😲
