Not sure if these have been posted as I got a bunch of results when I searched for them. But here's a couple vids I found while browsing around.

Nice videos :thumbup:

 

If you look 2:18 minutes in to the video in the first link, what is that stuff bouncing of the ground as it hits?

 

In the second link, if you look 75 seconds in to the video, you see that the "black shark" has a different tail than the other helicopters :detective:

Pretty cool, looks like a shark fin :doh:

1. That's the projectiles. This video should give you clearance AP projectiles ricochet modeling

 

2. The Tail isn't modified , its the paint job that gives you this illusion.

You're right about the tail, I froze the video after about 82 sec. and then I can clearly see it.

 

But I don't find it realistic with the projectile bouncing of the ground like in the ED video. My experience with 12,7mm (cal.50) is that within a 45° angle it will penetrate, but I have often seen the tracer being nocked off and continued on it's own. And if it's AP (armour piercing) or MP (multi purpose) it should penetrate the soil. It looks like the projectiles are larger than 30mm but that could be an illusion?

Maybe it some sort of PSRTA (Plastic Short Range Training Ammunition)
