This YouTube Short explains the critical importance of a spall liner in body armor, particularly when using steel plates. The video highlights how a spall liner is essential to prevent fragmentation from metal-on-metal impacts, which can cause serious injuries. It emphasizes that this protective layer effectively catches dangerous shrapnel, making body armor significantly safer.

This video title suggests a ballistic test comparing rifle spalling (fragmentation of a projectile upon impact) against a Level III ballistic helmet. The core question is whether the helmet can withstand the fragments generated by a rifle round. The content likely involves a demonstration or analysis of projectile behavior and personal protective equipment's resistance capabilities. It aims to inform viewers about the effectiveness of Level III armor against rifle-induced fragmentation.

This YouTube video focuses on a Soviet T-72 tank projectile, specifically a 125mm split bursting fragmentation fin-stabilized tank projectile. The title and description highlight the military ordnance aspect of the T-72 tank, with hashtags indicating a broader interest in tanks and warfare. The content appears to be an educational or informational segment on military hardware.

This video showcases an inert 82mm High Explosive Fragmentation M48 mortar round from Yugoslavia. The title and description indicate a focus on military ordnance, with hashtags pointing to broader military and army themes. The inert nature of the round suggests the content may be educational or for collectors, rather than involving live firing.

This video discusses steel body armor and its primary drawback, spall and fragmentation. It presents Kevlar as the solution, explaining how it's used to wrap steel plates to effectively catch and contain spall, thereby enhancing safety.

This video tests Wolf's 6.5mm Grendel 100gr FMJ ammunition using a 12.5" upper in a controlled ballistic gelatin setup. The analysis focuses on penetration, yaw, expansion, fragmentation, and retained weight, captured with a high-speed camera. Key metrics are provided, including penetration depth of 20.6", 92.8gr retained weight, and an average velocity of 2,337.00 fps. The test assesses claims about early yaw and temporary stretch cavity formation for this specific ammunition.

This video provides a detailed ballistic gel test of the .300 AAC Blackout cartridge, specifically using a 125-grain Speer TNT projectile fired from an 8-inch, 1:7 twist AR-15 upper. The analysis focuses on penetration depth, fragmentation/expansion, and retained weight, directly relating these metrics to defensive use scenarios. High-speed camera footage from Aimed Research is utilized to capture the impact dynamics. The test measures velocities, penetration exceeding 18.6 inches, and a retained weight of 77.8 grains. The video aims to evaluate whether this modern firearm and ammunition combination is a 'masterpiece' or 'mediocre' for its intended purpose.

This video from Fun Gun Reviews showcases a ballistic plate shooting test of AR500 Armor plates. The test examines fragmentation and spalling by firing various calibers at both untreated and Line-X coated AR500 plates. The review highlights the performance of the ballistic plates under different ammunition impacts, offering a practical evaluation of their protective capabilities.
