This test evaluates the effectiveness of AR550 steel body armor against various .50 BMG rounds. The .50 Cal SLAP round penetrated four AR550 plates, while Raufoss, APIT, and API rounds penetrated three. Standard incendiary rounds failed to penetrate the first plate. The findings indicate that steel body armor is generally insufficient against specialized .50 BMG armor-piercing ammunition.

This video pits a .50 BMG SLAP round against a replica Thor's Hammer, demonstrating the destructive power of various .50 caliber ammunition types. While the hammer's head proved surprisingly durable, the SLAP round successfully penetrated it, outperforming Raufoss and APIT rounds in pure penetration, though the latter two offered incendiary effects. The test highlights the significant kinetic energy and specialized capabilities of .50 BMG rounds.
