Wall Braker
I doubt many people would be too keen on reversing a truck into a wall.hoarp001 wrote:Whos to say you cant mount a bigarse steel ram out the back of a truck and reverse it into the wall...
It also wouldn't be as "safe" to do so. A truck doing that is a lot of momentum, and it would probably continue through the wall itself.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

That is pretty cool. It looks like it could very well be a large coaxial diaphragm or piston valve. Could be a toolies style piston as well

Awesome! Its hard to see how it works. (what kind of valve?)
We should try to get a diagram or something...
Its very compact for its power.

Anything with a bore measured in feet and running on hundreds of psi is going to have quite a lot of bang for it's overall length.psycix wrote:Its very compact for its power.

Impressive device, but as far as practicality is concerned I think this would be a much better idea.

Of course, all of these ideas depend on the wall being structurally sound enough to still stay up with a hole in them.
Try that at some houses I've seen, and instead of a house with a hole in it's wall, you'd be left with a pile of rubble with some hostages and terrorists buried under it.

Watch that future weapons video. That's the way the enemy would be expecting you to come in so they could cover it or booby trap it. Come in through the wall and they have no idea where you're coming from!

Before I forget here's a more useful side-on picture of the cannon:

I'm wondering if that's a piston valve lurking at the top there... These photographers have no idea of how to take photos for those interested in the interesting bits i.e. the back end, not looking down a barrel...

Maybe you should offer to do it properly for them
