ORIGINAL: USSAmerica Good Friday morning - Tithe. I claim the UNP that USSAmerica overlooked! Not so fast. First you have to answer 3 questions... I'll spot you the first 2 questions. The 3rd question is: What is the muzzle velocity of an 18.1" shell? That depends. Next! You're supposed to say, "What do you mean, an AP or HE shell?" What about a clam shell, an egg shell or even a snail shell? The armor penetration / anti-personnel value of such shells is minimal. Well, Sir, it also depends on what type of gun it is. Who says that it is even fired from a gun. It might be launched from a catapult, a trebuchet, or some other device. He also does not state the medium that it is traveling through nor the conditions of that medium. Sir, I feel I must point out that in order for the shell to have a muzzle velocity, the shell must have been fired, or launched, from a muzzle. Neither catapult nor trebuchet has a muzzle. But maybe the catapult or the trebuchet had an animal with a muzzle that had the shell in its muzzle, launched the animal, then the animal sends the shell on its way.
