lol

as for men wearing it

thats rather impractical

it weighs too much

the amount youd have to wear for it to be practical

which is why it was only used on things with powerful engines

madlad

And being shot with metal armor on

ye

Is that an SCP?

I assumed as much

Unless it’s like that

It hurts

itll all hurt

thtat being said

that kinda armour would only work in the trenches

German spotted in Iraq

not crossing the field

@Ethaneth SCP-166 is best SCP

@Lucienne d'Anwyl most of armour was trench-oriented

..... Sloped armor increases the effective thickness, , if it's super thin it's still not stopping shit- the increase in effective thickness is a multiplier.
Also the bigger issue isn't necessarily stopping a non-AP bullet, it's absorbing the kinetic impact. Stopping a penetration only converts the damage from piercing to blunt.

Though that boxy armour was a brainchild of a literal bootleg gangster

if you go out in no mans land youre dead dead dead

It was an effective armour too

Also of note

there were no bootlegging gangsters pre ww1

We don't use metal plate armor pretty much at all any more

the fuck you talking about

even on tanks

tanks are typically bullshit ceramics and stuff

Actually Lucy

Bootlegging gangsters have existed since the dawn of time

you know

ceramics
