The Bullet proof jacket is the back up if the 50 feet of lead-lined steel-reinforced concrete fails.

Two 30mm Aden cannon pods on RAF/FAA units and a GAU-12/U Equalizer 25mm cannon pod on USMC, Italian and Spanish ones.

Keep in mind that the shell is really more of a "sabot" for the DU core. It's an aluminium/steel outer shell, with some titanium/uranium for the core. The tip of the shell is actually very thin (not much metal between the tip and the core), so the core doesn't lose much kinetic velocity when it passes through.

The actual U-238 core is the size of a #2 pencil lead, about 3cm long.

JSLTIGER · 04-06-06, 12:55 PM

It doesn't take all that big a core if you use something that's very dense (uranium being the densest natural element) and moving at extremely high velocities (you can pack a lot of powder into a 30mm shell).

Doesnt the 20mm CIWS have U-235?
(Yes I realize I should already know this one

We have a armor piercing round made of Depleted Uranium for our Bradleys that we use. The round will go through damn near anything practical. The great thing about the round coming from an A-10 is that gravity does alot of the work. It makes short work of any target that is sorry enough to be hit by it.
