China’s #Hypervelocity #Kinetic #weapons Lock On US Tanks Chinese researchers are studying the effects of hypervelocity kinetic weapons on US tanks, taking lessons from the war in Ukraine. They are focusing on the American tanks supplied to Taiwan and claim that a 20kg solid projectile traveling at four times the speed of sound can severely damage tanks built to US military standards. This could impact Taiwan’s defense and the Western defense industry. The effect of high-speed kinetic weapons on US armored forces Chinese researchers are studying the effects of high-speed kinetic weapons on US armored forces. Sources accuse Abrams tanks of underperforming in Ukraine, influencing the image of the Western defense industry. The Chinese team has found that a 20kg solid sphere traveling at four times the speed of sound can significantly damage advanced tanks.
