  • This is more of a shaped-charge device. An IED is like a fuse straped to an ammo box full of nails and gunpwder. Hence the name, IMPROVISED explosive device. This is a PREPARED explosive decive. HA

  • i think its mainly good for special ops, where size matters.

  • ^your chem course lets you use sodium? Thats extremely dangerous. What country do you live in? In australia you MUST be a qualified chemist or other scientific career and have alot of paper work to get it.

  • im in a chem course where i have to build a device that uses 10 grams of sodium to blow through 1/4 inch thick piece of plywood. Would a shaped charge be the way to go? Im not sure if the sodium gets hot enough to melt a metal cone considering its just raw sodium and water.

  • Lol @ the end, there is no way they will leave the plate there, they would have searched day and night until they found it.

  • I want that under bin ladens ass!

  • Its not so much the shaped charge. The copper plate liquifies and then forms a slug due to aerodynamic forces. The slug self forges as it goes thru the air and becomes very hard. And its travelling at silly velocity. They did this with the Skeet munition back in the eighties. High explosives frizzbies!

  • Just got a couple of them off Ebay for only 7.99$ a piece!!

  • imagine a machine gun with such power, call it the terminator :D

  • Yeah, I don't know when this aired but I saw news coverage about these shape charges in IEDs in the middle east as far back as 2002.

  • Yes. Krakatoa/Krakatau is the volcano that was located in Sunda Strait, between Java and Sumatra. It was disapeared as the result of it's blast. Now, a small volcano is emerging from bottom of the sea, and Indonesian call it Anak Krakatau (Child of Krakatoa).

  • This thing is scary!!!! nothing should be this effective. this can change the face of the futur battlefield.
