A Shaped Charge test.

I have Always found the concept of a shaped charge a fascinating idea. The way you can harness the raw power of explosives into a single accurate point to get a copper projectile to penetrate solid steel is just brilliant. over the years i have done quite some study and many tests to get this level of penetration and beyond. So in this video we take a two part binary mixture and fill a pre made Conical copper lined charge and fire it into 100mm of steel plates with pleasing results.
