You'd be hard pressed to put it in a boxcar.

Do you think firing it would slow the bug?

Pretty sure it would disintegrate the bug.... they use em against tanks.

I meant if it were mounted on the bug and then fired. :ph34r:
 

if the bug doesn’t collapse under weight….

COULD put one in the bed of Ol’ Green, but the gas mileage might suffer a bit.

I heard one once at Aberdeen Proving Grounds.  Sounded like tearing a piece of paper.

The "Fighter Mafia" hates the A-10. They are "bone-yarding" a bunch of them. What they ought to do is turn them over to Army Aviation...or maybe armor. That thing is a flying tank!  Or...give them to the Ukranians! Of course they would need the F-16's flying top cover.

If you shoulder-fired that larger round, I am just betting that the recoil would not be moderate.  Just guessing.
