Rubber Duck Riot Controle

This video tests the effectiveness of microscopic rubber ducks as 37mm riot control rounds fired from a TAC 79 grenade launcher. While the ducks demonstrated a wide spread pattern suitable for crowd dispersal, they lacked the energy to penetrate ballistics gelatin or significantly impact a water jug, indicating limited effectiveness for riot control purposes. The testing involved paper targets for spread, a water jug for energy, and ballistics gelatin heads as 'rioters'.

Quick Summary

Microscopic rubber ducks were tested as 37mm riot control rounds using a TAC 79 grenade launcher. While they produced a wide spread pattern, they lacked the energy to penetrate ballistics gelatin or significantly impact a water jug, rendering them ineffective for riot control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can microscopic rubber ducks be used as effective 37mm riot control rounds?

While microscopic rubber ducks fired from a 37mm launcher can create a wide spread pattern suitable for crowd dispersal, they lack the necessary energy for effective riot control. Testing showed they failed to penetrate ballistics gelatin or significantly impact a water jug, indicating insufficient stopping power.

What equipment was used to test the rubber duck riot control rounds?

The testing utilized a TAC 79 grenade launcher to fire the 37mm rubber duck rounds. Impact and spread were assessed using paper targets, a gallon water jug, and ballistics gelatin heads to simulate rioters.

What were the key findings regarding the effectiveness of rubber ducks as riot control projectiles?

The primary finding was that rubber ducks, despite their wide spread, lacked the energy transfer and penetration power required for effective riot control. They did not incapacitate simulated targets made of ballistics gelatin.

How was the energy and spread of the rubber duck projectiles evaluated?

Spread was evaluated by firing at paper targets to observe the dispersion pattern. Energy impact was assessed by observing the effect on a gallon jug of water, and penetration was tested using ballistics gelatin heads.
