Edwin Sarkissian, known for destructive testing, experimentally pits various firearms against F-35 jet engine turbine blades. The video demonstrates that while smaller calibers like .22 LR and 9mm have no effect, higher-powered rounds and specific ammunition types show varying degrees of success. Armor-piercing 5.7x28mm, 7.62x54R, and 5.56 NATO rounds penetrate, while .44 Magnum and .50 AE cause shattering or chipping due to the blade's brittle nature. The AK-47's 7.62x39mm is less effective than 5.56 NATO, and a 12 Gauge slug shatters the blade through blunt force.
