permitting it to penetrate armor at greater distance.
I wouldn’t have thought the distance could be that big.
Apparently that EFP is travelling at 2000m/s (Mach 6) and can penetrate up to 140mm of RHA. They don’t provide the weight of the EFP.
(This might be all wrong and not how it works.) If the search radius is 100m and search angle is 30degrees the triangle would be a=173m (“height”, not accounting for angle), b=100m (search radius), c=200m (longest distance, not accounting for angle). I don’t know if it looks like a ~200m distance or not.
