This video details an experimental test comparing the penetration power of an Excalibur Micro Edition crossbow against a Boeing 737 cockpit door. The host, Edwin Sarkissian, demonstrates the crossbow's effectiveness, showing it can penetrate the Kevlar-reinforced door, outperforming some firearms previously tested on the same target. The test includes a secondary target to visualize the arrow's residual energy.

This video tests the ballistic resistance of a Boeing 737 cockpit door against various firearm calibers. While handgun rounds and even .44 Magnum failed to penetrate, rifle calibers like .223 Remington and 7.62x39mm successfully breached the door. The test concluded with .50 BMG rounds easily penetrating two stacked doors, highlighting the limits of its ballistic protection.
