Burning bullets

A bunker-busting shell that gets so hot on impact that it burns its way  
through concrete and steel is being developed by the US Navy's Warfare  
Center in Virginia.

The shell contains a mixture of aluminium polytetrafluoroethylene  
(PTFE) and perchlorate oxydiser, moulded together into an aerodynamic  
shape. To prevent the mixture from disintegrating as it travels through  
air at high velocity the shell is wrapped in a soft Teflon tape, which  
is wound tight under high tension, heated and topped with epoxy glue to  
prevent unravelling.

Its high-velocity impact acts as a catalyst, forcing the two chemicals  
together in a red hot reaction. The projectile gets so hot so fast that  
it should instantly burn its way through armour plating or other  
defences.

And the burning shell would avoid the environmental pitfalls of  
radioactive depleted uranium - currently the most common material used  
in armour-piercing shells.
