Here is a interesting round that i picked up years ago, well interesting in the fact that it has a story behind it.
This is i belive a 23mm Russian API/T round feel free to correct me if i am wrong, It came from a seller in the states who had been a high speed photographer working for the US Millitary, One of the jobs he did was to record the impact of these rounds and the results on the then prototype titanium "bathtub" that protects the pilots in the A10.
I was told on which range this was conducted only i cant seem to remember or find the info anymore. The round was given to the photographer as a thankyou/keepsake after the job.
Can anyone else share any light on this?
Best regards Weasel.
