A German Stielhandgranate (stick grenade) was tested against the heavy-duty tracks of a Caterpillar bulldozer, reportedly from WWII. Despite the explosive force, the thick steel tracks remained completely undamaged, demonstrating their robust construction. The grenade's operation involves a pull-string igniter with a 5-10 second delay.

This video focuses on the CAT 3516, which is a diesel engine manufactured by Caterpillar. While the title directly mentions the model number, the description provides no further information about its applications or context. As there are no firearms or related topics mentioned, this video is not relevant to the firearm community. Therefore, it receives a low score due to its lack of relevance.

This video demonstrates the CAT 15A2 AR-15, featuring a custom Caterpillar theme and an Allen Engineering M4 suppressor. It highlights the 'first round pop' phenomenon and the suppressor's sound signature during live fire on an outdoor range. The demonstration showcases proper firearm handling and the use of NFA-regulated items.

This YouTube video showcases an artistic AR-15 build named the CAT-15A2, created by Caterpillar. The video provides a technical overview of the build, highlighting its artistic aspects and concluding with final touches. It also includes links to a Discord server, a competition sign-up for the "Gunfighter Gauntlet" (with corrected dates), a video explaining what to expect at the match, and a match announcement video.

John Miller, an engineer with extensive experience at Apple and in global manufacturing, details the multifaceted causes of the current supply chain crisis. He highlights shipping delays at the Port of Los Angeles, the automotive chip shortage driven by prioritization of advanced electronics, and geopolitical risks surrounding Taiwan's critical role in chip production via TSMC. Miller also touches on battery shortages for EVs and draws parallels to ammunition production during high demand.

This video tests the destructive capability of a WWII German stick grenade against the heavy-duty tracks of a Caterpillar D7 bulldozer. Despite the grenade's detonation, the industrial-grade steel tracks showed no structural damage, highlighting their exceptional durability compared to contemporary tank armor. The bulldozer itself remained operational after the test.

This video tests the penetration capabilities of the 5.56 Green Tip (M855) round fired from an AR-15 against a propane tank. The M855, featuring a 62-grain full metal jacket with a steel penetrator core, successfully pierced the tank, causing a significant explosion. The test highlights the destructive potential of this common military ammunition.

This experiment tests the penetration capabilities of various archery equipment against Caterpillar steel-toe boots. Traditional bows (100-200 fps) and compound bows (300 fps) failed to penetrate the steel toe, only damaging the leather. A high-powered TenPoint crossbow (470 fps) also could not penetrate the steel toe, though it severely bent and destroyed the arrow tips.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Caterpillar D8 bulldozer track against various calibers. Handgun rounds like 9mm and .50 AE failed to penetrate, only causing surface marks. Even rifle rounds such as 7.62x39mm and .308 Winchester could not pierce the hardened steel. Only the .50 BMG APIT round proved capable of penetrating the track, demonstrating its extreme power.
